News Corp columnist Angela Mollard claims Prince George will inherit the monarchy at the “worst time” to be a royal. “I really pity a young boy who does not have the choices and is going to be raised in the system. When the late Queen Elizabeth was alive, she was protected by the mystique of the monarchy; that no longer exists,” Ms Mollard told Sky News host James Morrow. “People think about the Diana years that were the worst time to be a royal … I think it’s going to be far, far worse for George.”
