Britain is readying its new king. New documents obtained by The Daily Mail reveal that Queen Elizabeth is preparing to hand over a significant part of her portfolio to her 27-year-old grandson, Prince William. The disclosures from government financial documents hint that Prince Charles, the queen's son, is being passed over as William is groomed as the face of the monarchy. Royal sources discount the report, saying Charles won't be skipped over. The reports also raise questions, the paper says, about whether William will become engaged to his girlfriend Kate Middleton in the near future.
