Prince William in no rush for the throne
UK: Prince William's wedding Friday is the next step in his journey
to becoming king, but Princess Diana's eldest son has taken his time in
getting married, and neither is he in any rush to take the throne.
William has overcome the tragedy of his mother's death when he was 15
to become the great hope of the British royal family in the 21st
century.
Opinion polls show a majority of the public want the 28-year-old to
leapfrog his father Prince Charles in the order of succession and take
the throne after Queen Elizabeth II.
But such a move is highly unlikely and in any case, William has given
no indication that he wants it anytime soon.
