查理三世在英國時間9月8日出了第一份聲明悼念女王,據知他將會於英國時間9月9日回到倫敦,由英國政府高層組成「登基會議」宣佈他繼位,並發表全國講話,之後會即時訪問聯合王國的四個構成國,包括為英國﹑蘇格蘭、北愛爾蘭和威爾斯,並會見當地政府領導人及人民。

然而卡蜜拉亦成為新一任王后,之前英國皇室只承認她在丈夫登基後擁有王妃封號,但於今年二月她已經和卡蜜拉送上祝福,允許她擁有王后的銜頭。同時在英女王登基70週年的聲明中寫道,「未來某個時間點,我的兒子查理斯將繼承王位,我希望所有英國民眾,也能將你們多年來支持我的態度,同等地移轉給查理斯和他的妻子卡蜜拉。而卡蜜拉,也將以王后配偶的身份,繼續執行她的王室義務」。雖然她成為王后但並沒有無王位繼承資格。因為查理三世登基後,英國王儲隨即變成威廉王子,而他和妻子凱特王妃的封號由劍橋公爵及劍橋公爵夫人(Duke & Duchess of Cambridge)改為康沃爾及劍橋公爵和公爵夫人(Duke & Duchess of Cornwall & Cambridge)。

查理三世的加冕儀式仍沒有確實的時間線,預計將在追悼期後會再於數月後舉行。然而英國所有印有女王頭像的紙幣、硬幣和郵票將會替換成查理三世的頭像。英國國歌將由《God Save the Queen》變為《God Save the King》,英國護照上原本Her Majesty將改為His Majesty 。



雖然大眾對於查理三世的記憶是他的婚姻關係,查理三世出生於1948年11月14日,曾於皇家空軍和皇家海軍服役,鍾情於建築、繪畫、園藝。查理三世成為國王後將會有不停的新行程,正式展開國王的新職責。
