DescriptionPrince Charles’ plans to marry Camilla has ran into rough weather with a section of the Church of England asking him to make a choice between love and the throne.

More than a quarter of the general Synod’s members are thought to be uneasy that the church’s next supreme governor - a title that the Prince will inherit if he becomes the king - will be a remarried divorcee.

The row is expected to intensify when the Synod, the highest decision making body of the Church, meets next week. Although the issue is not on the agenda, three senior members have called for an emergency debate, which the Archbishop of Canterbury, Rowan Williams, has rejected, the Daily Telegraph reported here on Saturday.
