It was a double relief for royalists to see both King Charles III and Catherine, Princess of Wales, back out in public together again. The Daily Mail noted that Charles’ doctors had advised him to avoid any events with large crowds of people since his cancer diagnosis. Still, despite his ongoing treatment and advice to the contrary, Charles was determined to be there for his big birthday celebration.
“There are a number of key events His Majesty would love to attend coming up in the diary, and this is at the top of the list,” a source said. However, Charles was forced to make the concession of traveling in a carriage with Queen Camilla rather than riding horseback, as is the usual protocol.
Meanwhile, Kate looked beautiful but frail. Smiling and waving as usual but definitely appearing pained and tired at times. This is not surprising given the health update she recently released, along with a new photo. “I am making good progress, but as anyone going through chemotherapy will know, there are good days and bad days. On those bad days, you feel weak, tired and you have to give in to your body resting,” she announced. “But on the good days, when you feel stronger, you want to make the most of feeling well,” she said.
