King Charles pays a heartfelt tribute to Queen Elizabeth II on the first anniversary of her passing, unveiling a long-hidden portrait of his mother that hasn’t been seen by the public in over half a century, ensuring her memory lives on eternally in our hearts.

On the first anniversary of Queen Elizabeth’s demise, The King paid a heartfelt tribute to his cherished mother while the nation observed this solemn occasion. Departing from tradition in an unprecedented manner symbolizing both his appreciation for the country’s collective mourning and pride for her exceptional commitment to public service, His Majesty fondly recounted her extensive lifespan and selfless dedication that touched numerous lives.

Initially intending to quietly reflect on his mother’s passing and his own sorrowful succession at home in Scotland, Charles (74) had planned a private period of contemplation. This choice aligned with Queen Elizabeth’s preference over 70 years ago when she mourned her father King George VI at Sandringham in Norfolk far from public scrutiny.
