Perhaps it was no surprise that King Charles walked over to greet the public after Easter morning prayers on Sunday.

We know that the Queen has been extremely grateful for the public support she has received since her cancer diagnosis, so this opportunity to speak to members for the first time may be too good to pass up.

Not only did he shake hands with some 60 people waiting at Windsor Castle on Sunday, he also spent three minutes having a brief conversation, much to the delight of those present.

Here’s a reminder of what the country’s support means to the king:

Fletcher recorded a special podcast with Middleton in 2020, recalling two encounters with the Princess of Wales, including one in which the two bonded over nipple cream in a baby bank.

King Charles has taken a “significant step” towards returning to public duties following an Easter appearance, a source said.

“Today is an important step,” a palace insider said.

“It can be seen that the King’s response to treatment over the past few weeks has been very encouraging and so his doctors have been able to slightly adjust their guidance on what His Majesty is now able to do, including attending Easter services and greeting well-wishers who have come out to express their gratitude. support.”

The comments came weeks after the Royals announced that King was undergoing treatment for cancer.

Buckingham Palace announced that the king will not participate in any official public events during his treatment. Instead, he has been performing all official duties privately.

The path ahead “looks very positive,” the source said.

Earlier in the day, he stood beside and waved to the Queen outside St George’s Chapel, his most significant public appearance since being diagnosed with cancer.

Well-wishers waiting to meet King Charles at Windsor Castle expressed their joy at meeting him as he attended Easter morning prayers on Sunday.

One woman said the 75-year-old’s attendance showed he was “doing well” after starting cancer treatment.

Another well-wisher, Henry Wood, said the king was “in good spirits”.

King Charles is said to be responding well to his cancer treatment and his road to recovery looks “very positive” as he looked “looking fine” on Easter Sunday.

The 75-year-old monarch made his first public appearance after being diagnosed with an unknown cancer in January.

He reportedly attended Easter morning prayers in Windsor and addressed members of the public following a change in doctor’s guidance following a “very encouraging” response to treatment.

Sarah Ferguson, Duchess of York, was among the royal family attending Easter morning prayers at St George’s Chapel, Windsor.

The 64-year-old arrived with her ex-husband Prince Andrew and the pair were dropped off in a car outside the church.

She previously attended the Thanksgiving memorial service for King Constantine II of Greece in February.

Like the Princess of Wales and King Charles, Fergie has faced her own health battle after being diagnosed with an aggressive skin cancer earlier this year.

After the king’s first public appearance, a number of media outlets published lengthy comments from royal sources, including The Sun, The Mirror and The Telegraph.

The full statement reads: “Today is an important step. It has been seen that the King’s response to treatment over the past few weeks has been very encouraging, so his doctors have been able to slightly adjust their guidance on what His Majesty is now able to do, including attending the Resurrection Festival ceremonies and greetings well-wishers kindly expressed their support.

“To be clear, the treatment of His Majesty the King continues and caution is of course the watchword, but as plans for the summer diary are developed we hope to see more of these carefully calibrated steps towards restoring some of the King’s public-facing responsibilities, as necessary Make adjustments when necessary.

“Nothing will be confirmed until closer to the time, and plans are still changing and subject to medical guidance, but doctors and patients alike have a lot of hope and optimism.

“Of course, His Majesty has been carrying out all official duties privately and has been photographed at some smaller Palace events, but hopefully today will reassure the wider public that His Majesty is doing a great job and the path forward looks very positive”.

It was interesting to hear part of the conversation between King Charles and the public he went to greet after the Easter Martins service at Windsor Castle earlier today.

His walk to greet well-wishers was a surprise, perhaps reflecting his improved health since he began cancer treatment.

One royal fan shook his hand and said: “Get well soon, Your Majesty.”

The king replied: “I have tried my best.”

Another told him: “Keep strong and never give in.”

In total, he shook hands with about 60 members of the public who were patiently waiting for the Queen to attend the ceremony.

This year, fewer members of the royal family attended Easter morning prayers at St George’s Chapel in Windsor.

Notable absentees included the Princess of Wales, who was recently diagnosed with cancer and began preventive chemotherapy, along with her husband and children.

Attendees included Prince Edward, Duke of Edinburgh, Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh and James, Earl of Wessex.

Prince Andrew arrived with Princess Anne and her husband Vice Admiral Sir Tim Lawrence.

Also in attendance was Prince Andrew’s ex-wife Sarah Ferguson, who herself was diagnosed with breast cancer earlier this year.
