King Charles’ big appearance over the Easter holidays has proven to be a boon for his daughter-in-law Kate Middleton.

The cancer-stricken monarch looked delighted as he attended a Sunday service at St George’s Chapel in Windsor with Queen Camilla and close royals.

talking press association News agency, editor-in-chief Authoritative magazineJoe Little claimed the king’s appearance helped divert attention from the whereabouts of Kate, who is currently undergoing treatment for cancer.

The Prince and Princess of Wales skipped church services and instead spent family time with their three children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, at Anmer Estate in Norfolk.

“I think people accept and understand that the Prince and Princess of Wales and their family are on Easter break now and they need privacy… [to] Continue as a family,” Joe explained.

“I don’t think anything the King did today was specifically with that in mind, but it does help.”

The king emerged after undergoing cancer treatment and was strictly advised by doctors to avoid public appearances.

Kate Middleton’s long absence from the public eye after undergoing abdominal surgery in May sparked a flurry of speculation and conspiracy theories.

Last month, the future Queen of England broke her silence in a video message to fans, telling them she had been diagnosed with an undisclosed form of cancer.
