Dozens of long-serving employees of King Charles III's staff at Clarence House face layoffs as the incoming king prepares to relocate palaces.

According to the source, up to 100 staff were given redundancy notices at Queen Elizabeth II's funeral ceremony at St. Giles' Cathedral in Edinburgh on Monday. Employees at the king's previous official residence are working extra hard to help him adjust to life at Buckingham Palace.

100 Royal Palace Staff May Lose Their Job

Private secretaries, the financial office, members of the media team, and domestic staff are among those whose jobs are at stake. According to the Clarence House 2021-2022 annual assessment, the house employs 101 full-time staff members.

Many staff members were allegedly under the notion that they would be joining King Charles III in his new household until they got a letter from the king's senior assistant, Sir Clive Alderton, this week.

The publication obtained a copy of the letter, which purportedly stated that Charles' "change in position" would "also mean change for our home," indicating the closure of Clarence House.

"It is thus believed that the necessity for the employees largely headquartered at Clarence House, whose work supports these sectors, would no longer be required," the letter stated.

Employees are "absolutely livid," according to an unidentified source. Alderton said that some staff members who give "direct, close, personal assistance and guidance" to King Charles and Camilla will keep their jobs, and he stressed that no final decisions have been made. He stated that a time of deliberation will commence following the queen's state funeral next week, Insider reported.

A Clarence House official did not immediately answer to Insider's request for comment, but acknowledged that "some redundancies will be inevitable," adding that the house is "working urgently" to find replacement employment for as many people as possible.

According to the outlet, those who are laid off will be given support in finding new positions as well as a "increased" redundancy payment. The Royal Family has yet to clarify whether Charles and Camilla will eventually live at Buckingham Palace full-time. There is speculation that the king, who is said to dislike the residence, may use it for more official reasons while keeping Clarence House as his personal living space.

What Does King Charles III's Monarchy Look Like?

Royal observers say that King Charles III is unlikely to enlist the help of his mother's cousin, the Duke of Kent, who is most known for his involvement in giving out trophies to Wimbledon victors.

Rather, his narrow view of the monarchy will undoubtedly revolve on himself and his wife Camilla, whom the queen has determined will be known as Queen Consort on the 70th anniversary of her accession in February.

Camilla's rise in status - she was named Princess Consort when she married Charles in 2005 - is recognition of the way she has carried out her duties alongside her husband over the years. That etiquette included adopting the title Duchess of Cornwall to avoid repeating the Princess of Wales title, which had become synonymous with the late Princess Diana, as per USA Today.

Other members of King Charles' inner circle are expected to include his son, Prince William, and his wife, Kate Middleton, Duchess of Cambridge, as well as King Charles' sister, Princess Anne, and his brother, Prince Edward, and his wife, Sophie, Countess of Wessex. Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis, Prince William and Kate Middleton's three children, are all expected to play active roles as they get older.

Prince Andrew, Charles' scandal-plagued brother, and Charles' son Prince Harry, who famously resigned from royal responsibilities and now lives in California with his wife Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, and their two children, are unlikely to represent the monarchy.

While it remains to be seen if Prince Andrew's children with ex-wife Sarah Ferguson, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie, are called upon, the list is unlikely to extend far beyond direct family, according to Nicoletta Gullace, associate professor of history at the University of New Hampshire.

Anti-King Charles III Starts Agonizing New Monarchy

A protester was led away by police this morning after holding a sign that read 'Abolish the Monarchy' and 'Not my King' outside the Palace of Westminster. The lady waved the sign as police led her away from the gates of Parliament, where King Charles and the Queen Consort had received condolences from members of the Houses of Commons and Lords this morning.

His Majesty also addressed Parliament for the first time in the nearly 1,000-year-old Westminster Hall, the ancient heart of the Palace of Westminster where his mother will lie in state beginning Wednesday evening and lasting four days until her funeral on Monday.

Despite the loud cheers of 'God Save the King' as the new monarch drove from Clarence House along The Mall this morning, one person used the moment to express their opposition to the monarchy.

A tiny handful of demonstrators booed a pronouncement of 'God Save the King' as thousands gathered in Edinburgh to hear the Lord Lyon King of Arms, who is responsible for administering official ceremonial in Scotland, publicly declare the Queen's successor.

Following the anthem, another loud boo could be heard when Lord Lyon led three cheers of "hip, hip hooray," causing indignation among some in the audience, with someone yelling back "Oh shut up."

On Sunday, Our Republic, a Scottish campaign organization that thinks the monarchy should be eliminated, urged individuals who disagreed with the proclamation to "make those clear," Daily Mail reported.
