Easter Sunday muted for Royals: King Charles to attend service despite cancer diagnosis, while Kate recovers privately

Live Mint  

As the world gears up for Easter Sunday, the British royal family is set to have a relatively subdued celebration this year due to health issues affecting senior members. Typically, the entire royal family attends the Easter Sunday church service, but Buckingham Palace has stated that attendance will be smaller this time. This comes just days after the 75-year-old monarch greeted the nation with a recorded Maundy Thursday message, where he expressed his commitment to continue serving the nation “with his whole heart.” Despite his recent cancer diagnosis, King Charles has been conducting small audiences, including events like the Korean War Veterans reception, Commonwealth Day service, and the memorial for the late King Constantine in Windsor. Last week, Kate shared a video on social media detailing her health struggles and the discovery of cancer after a “planned abdominal surgery.” She expressed her gratitude for Prince William's unwavering support and requested privacy during her treatment, stating, "We hope you'll understand that as a family, we now need some time, space, and privacy while I complete my treatment."
