The 79-year-old provided his take on the key members of the Royal Family
King Charles has “proved people wrong” since replacing Queen Elizabeth II on the throne, ex-New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani has told GB News.
Charles, 74, succeeded his mother last September after Elizabeth spent a record-breaking 70-years as the UK’s monarch.
Giuliani suggested expectations for the new King were low but Charles has managed to exceed all expectations.
He said: “I think there were a lot of doubts about Charles but I think he’s been much better than people thought.”
Commenting about support for the Prince of Wales on the other side of the pond, Giuliani added: “They sure became fans of his [William’s] mum.
“And the more he emulates her, which he does, I mean he seems to have the same grace, the same dignity and so does his wife, I think Americans will see the value of that.”
However, Giuliani spoke particularly passionately about the late Queen Elizabeth.

“I might have a conflict,” he explained, “because I’m an Honorary Knight Commander of the British Empire.”
Giuliani continued: “I was knighted by the great and wonderful Queen Elizabeth II in 2000 and 2002.
“I can’t say that I am a monarchist. I’ve grown up in favour of republican-type governments but maybe with my honorary knighthood I now love the monarchy.
“I love her. I think she was one of the most remarkable people of the 20th century, just as a human-being.

“And I have great hopes for the interim Charles and really great hopes for his son [William].”
Giuliani’s comments about the former Queen echo much of what Donald Trump said during his time in the Oval Office and during his third election campaign.
The lawyer-turned politician made a number of other remarks during his interview with GB News.
Giuliani was scathing about Joe Biden’s immigration agenda and even suggested Vice President Kamala Harris should replace her boss immediately.
