A Message From The King In Recognition Of All Who Work To Support Cancer Patients And Their Loved Ones.

Last week at Clarence House, The Queen sat down with veteran Douglas Cracknell to hear about his memories of VE Day.

🇬🇧 This evening, The King and Queen will join veterans at a celebratory concert at Horse Guards Parade to conclude.

❤️My future queen in waiting 🌹✨✨✨👑👸

‘I remember lines of unknown people linking arms and walking down Whitehall, all of us just swept along on a tide of happiness and relief.’

On this day in 1945, Queen Elizabeth II (then Princess Elizabeth) pulled down her uniform cap and merged incognito into the crowds in central London to experience VE Day as one of tens of thousands of jubilant citizens celebrating the end of the Second World War. More than thirty years later, she recorded her memories for a unique BBC Broadcast. -

King Charles ||| 💬 “I do hope your celebrations tonight are almost as joyful, although I rather doubt I shall have the energy to sing until 2am, let alone for that matter to lead you all in a giant conga from here back to Buckingham Palace!”

Last night at 9pm, The King delivered a speech to mark exactly 80 years since his grandfather, King George VI, addressed the nation on VE Day.

Last week, The Queen sat down with veteran Douglas Cracknell at Clarence House ahead of #VEDay80 commemorations.

Douglas was awarded the Legion d’Honneur for his service during the Second World War, when he served as a rifleman in the 5th Duke of Cornwall’s Light Infantry.

Her Majesty’s father, Major Bruce Shand, was also a veteran and received the Military Cross twice for his actions at Dunkirk and in North Africa.

A golden time🏅

A glorious day celebrating The Duke of Edinburgh's Award Gold holders in the gardens of Buckingham Palace!

Congratulations to all who joined us on your amazing achievement. 💛

The King’s new Great Seal of the Realm has been unveiled, a symbol of Sovereign authority traditionally affixed to official state documents to signify Royal approval.

Uniquely designed for each Monarch, the Seal's design was approved by His Majesty, who entrusted it into the custody of the Lord High Chancellor during a Privy Council meeting. In keeping with centuries-old tradition, the old Seal was symbolically defaced by the Monarch himself and preserved for historical record.
