The King's health is heading in a 'very positive' direction after his cancer diagnosis earlier this year, a royal source has said.

The update comes as King Charles, 75, prepares to mark the second anniversary of his accession to the throne on Sunday.

The King endured a difficult second year as sovereign with both him and his daughter-in-law the Princess of Wales undergoing treatment for cancer.


King Charles has coped with the past year with a 'determination to be as public as he was able' to reassure the nation about his capabilities.

The King and Queen are gearing up for an important tour to Australia and Samoa in the autumn - their first major overseas trip since news of Charles's cancer was announced.

'Health has to remain the number one priority, albeit heading in a very positive trajectory,' the source said.
 

"Songs of Praise

is filmed at Balmoral Church

for the first time to mark Queen Elizabeth II's death.


The special programme,
due to be screened on Sunday,
features a hymn commissioned by the King called Crathie in honour of the building.

The King also marked the second anniversary of mother's death
and his accession to the throne in a reflective mood at the church today."

Crathie Kirk is the Scottish church where Queen Elizabeth II used to worship when staying at Balmoral Castle.

Crathie Kirk is very close to Balmoral,
where Elizabeth spent summer breaks on her Aberdeenshire estate with her family."

 
LONDON — It was often said that Queen Elizabeth II was the most photographed person in history, a face instantly recognizable to billions of people across her former empire and beyond.

The problem with depicting such an iconic figure is that while everyone will be able to tell if an artist has nailed it, there’s no hiding if a work looks absolutely nothing like her.

That’s exactly what’s happened with a bronze statue of the late monarch unveiled last week in Northern Ireland.

The local government, Antrim and Newtownabbey Borough Council, claims it shows the queen in “a dignified pose, reflecting her grace, steadfastness and lifelong dedication to public service.”.

The scathing reviews beg to differ...
 

"The Princess Royal attended a ceremony at the Arnhem Oosterbeek War Cemetery in the Netherlands to lay a wreath on land close to the same landing zone used 80 years ago during Operation Market Garden.

She is representing King Charles III at the series of commemoration events taking place this weekend across the UK and at the scene of the famous battle which was immortalised in the all-star 1977 movie A Bridge Too Far."
