What the King Shared

In the recorded message released at midnight on April 21 by Buckingham Palace, Charles reflected on his mother’s life, her steadfast service through decades of change and her belief that goodness and a brighter future endure. He recalled her early call to help make the world better and used the moment to renew his own pledge of duty and service.

Family and Commemoration

Framed photos accompanied the King in the recording. Ahead of the centenary, Charles and Queen Camilla visited a royal fashion exhibit, reviewed design plans for a national memorial in St. James’s Park due in 2028, and hosted a reception at Buckingham with senior working royals including Prince William, Kate Middleton, Princess Anne, Prince Edward and Sophie.
