In a recent announcement, Buckingham Palace has offered a significant update on the health conditions of King Charles and Kate Middleton, shedding light on their respective situations and how they will impact upcoming royal engagements.
The palace has confirmed that despite undergoing cancer treatment, the 75-year-old King is in good spirits and will attend his Birthday Parade, known as Trooping the Colour.
However, there will be adjustments to his participation, as he has chosen not to ride on horseback from Buckingham Palace to Horse Guards Parade on June 15.
Instead, he will ride in an Ascot landau carriage alongside the Queen, where he will inspect the troops of the Household Division.
This decision indicates that the King is still undergoing treatment and has not fully recovered.
Sources close to the monarch emphasized that each engagement will be carefully reviewed by his medical team, underscoring a commitment to making adaptations when necessary to support the King’s recovery.
Meanwhile, Kate Middleton’s health situation differs significantly. Kensington Palace has confirmed that the Princess, who serves as Colonel of the Irish Guards, will not participate in the Colonel’s Review on June 8, which serves as a dress rehearsal for the King’s Birthday Parade.
A royal source highlighted that Kate’s recovery is the priority, emphasizing that there is no pressure for her to resume public duties until she is fully recovered.

“No one wants to put any pressure on Catherine,” an insider close to the royals stated. “The only thing that matters at the moment is her getting better.”
Despite her absence, there remains hope among fans that Kate will make a surprise appearance on the Palace balcony alongside her children and the King on June 15.
As King Charles demonstrates progress in his health, there is a growing determination to increase his workload and public engagements.
Peter Philips, Princess Anne’s son, recently revealed that the King has expressed frustration about restrictions on his activities, while Queen Camilla has hinted at challenges in managing his workload for the sake of his health.
