Kirstie Allsopp's defence of King Charles III divides opinion on social media

TV presenter Kirstie Allsopp has divided opinion after publicly showing her support for King Charles III amid revelations there could be Clarence House redundancies.

Earlier this week, a UK newspaper reported that around 100 staff were told their jobs were at risk during the thanksgiving service for the Queen following her death. With Charles becoming King, it would mean that Clarence House – where he currently resides with Queen Consort Camilla – would be ‘closed down’ as the new monarch is expected to move to Buckingham Palace.

The Guardian reported that private secretaries, the finance office, the communications team and household staff were among those who had been warned about job losses. But while staff were left angry by the news, Allsopp went on Twitter to back Charles on the issue, reports The Express.
