The Royal Family has been around since the 17th
century in England and continues to be the most globally entrancing family. They are very well-respected, kind, and often
support charities to help out communities. Their lives are broadcast and scrutinized by the world through all forms of social media ranging from controversies,
marriages, and pregnancies. They truly are royal celebrities
Despite all of this, not every critic is a fan. Yes, they are royalty, but one of the biggest problems with the monarchy is the complete disregard of democracy. The Head of State should always be elected, not simply chosen by the womb they are born from. To have a system where any position is not available to just anyone runs counter to democracy. Democracy is when people choose who they want elected. No one elected The Queen of England—she was simply in line for the throne.
Certain Royals such as Prince William may serve in the military, but nowadays, they get fast-tracked through the army ranks without any qualifications or proof of their abilities. This is yet another example of absurd social privileges.
Indeed, they give to charity and use their wealth for the good of the people, but many forget where all of that money comes from. They do not earn that money; they take it out of the pockets of the people of England through taxes. All the money that should be going towards the state to better the nation should not only go toward their benefit and charity.
Yet, everyone is so fascinated by them. The royal family is so private, and no one ever truly knows what happens inside of the Buckingham Palace. Everyone around the world is so fascinated by their lives. What happens inside the walls of Buckingham Palace? What are the Royals truly like when away from the public eye? For example, Harry is the young, wild, and controversial Prince, while Prince William is the more older, modest, and more mature brother with the respectable Kate Middleton as his wife and baby number two on the way. Kate Middleton is notable for her fashion and always has a charming spirit.
There are always some scandals too, when it comes to this infamous family. Major headlines included Princess Diana’s various affairs with billionaires (which led to her car crash and death), King Charles’ affair with Camilla while he was married to Princess Diana (and soon after married after Diana’s death), and also Harry’s scandal when nude photos of him were leaked during his trip to Las Vegas.

The Royal Family is seen
on the cover of so many magazines and are the center of media attention. We think we know every detail about them, yet
they are so mysterious. They are seen as powerful and noble. But why are they so idolized? Why are they seen as differently from the
celebrity light, simply just for being
royal.
