King Charles and Queen Camilla to Attend Easter Sunday Service Amid Health Challenges

King Charles and Queen Camilla will attend the Easter Sunday mass this weekend at St George's Chapel at Windsor Castle, as confirmed today by Buckingham Palace. Royal aides have also revealed that the couple will be "accompanied by other members of the royal family", although no specific names have been provided. Charles' decision to attend is considered significant given that the king has decided to participate despite his cancer treatment. Kate Middleton, the call from Harry and William's response: here's what they said (and why they won't meet in May) How is Charles King Charles, currently undergoing chemotherapy, continues his recovery from the surgery he underwent in January. Reportedly, he has expressed a desire to return to royal events, but Sunday's appearance will be the monarch's first significant engagement since his cancer diagnosis in February. The king was seen today for the first time since the Princess of Wales revealed her own cancer diagnosis. Charles was seen leaving Windsor and arriving at Clarence House, where he greeted supporters. The king continues to perform his duties as head of state behind palace walls, conducting audiences and Privy Council meetings. Kate and William absent Kate and William will be absent on Easter Sunday. The Prince and Princess of Wales and their children George, Charlotte, and Louis will not be present as they will be spending the holidays together at Anmer Hall, their country home. Charles and Camilla will attend the Easter Morning Service - as it is officially known - which will last an hour from 10:45 to 11:45, according to the chapel. William is expected to return to public duties after his children have returned to school, so after the Easter holidays. For now, he will continue to divide his time between supporting his wife and family and maintaining his official duties, as he has done since Kate was operated on in January. When will Kate return It is not known how long Kate will receive treatment, but she will only return to participate in events when she feels able to do so, following the advice of doctors. Charles' commitment on Easter Sunday will be seen as a move to reassure the public after the shocking news about Kate. Although the Easter service takes place within the castle park, the king and queen will be seen arriving and are often observed by staff living in Windsor, who usually gather on a grassy bank nearby or watch from their own front door. At last year's ceremony, the king and queen were present along with Princess Anne, Prince Andrew, Prince Edward, Sophie, and Vice Admiral Sir Timothy Laurence.
