The figures also suggested Welsh people believe very strongly that they cost the public too much money: 58% of those questioned agreed with the statement that they believe the monarchy receives too much money and 39% of those agreeing strongly with the statement. Only 14% disagreed with the premise. "Monarchy is a wonderful thing and I think as long as they keep it sensible….I don't think another coronation will ever be quite the same because it's a different world."It was a fairy tale I think, the Queen, and her handsome husband.Image caption,

Hannah Bees, 32, got married the same year Kate and William did. She has followed their relationship with interest and has raised "young children at the same time as Kate"."However, I do fear without the Queen things may slide slightly. "The whole saga with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle has definitely changed the way I view the royal family.

She added that the "the optics of having a decadent jubilee celebration when we're in a cost of living crisis is just not OK and that's been judged really badly".
