As of now, there is no law stating that the King cannot vote, although the British monarch refrained from doing so as an action of convention. Besides that, all the senior members of the royal family are allowed to vote but they typically remain neutral in terms of their political views.
Meghan Markle has recently raised her voice to vote
In recent years, one member of the royal family has spoken actively about voting in elections; the Duchess of Sussex. Meghan Markle. According to PEOPLE, Meghan was the first British royal to vote in a US presidential election back in 2020.
Having stepped down as a working royal and moving to The United States, Markle voted in California. It's unknown whether other members of the royal family have voted in the ongoing British election. Moreover, we are also unsure if Kate Middleton will vote in the upcoming elections amidst her ongoing cancer treatment.
