UK King Charles III expressed gratitude to his son Prince Harry for visiting him in London after learning about his cancer diagnosis. The visit, which lasted 30 minutes, was seen as a sincere gesture from Prince Harry and was appreciated by the King. The complicated relationship between Prince Harry and the Royal Family has been a factor in their differences, but this visit could potentially change things. King Charles III saw his son's visit as a positive step and it may pave the way for improved relations within the Royal Family. Additionally, King Charles III expressed a desire to travel to Montecito in the United States to reunite with his grandchildren [9e4e3b2a].
UK King Charles III applauded people who took to the streets of British towns and cities earlier this week to help blunt days of unrest fuelled by far-right activists and misinformation about a stabbing attack that killed three girls. Charles offered his âheartfelt thanksâ to police and other emergency workers for their efforts to restore order and help those affected by the violence [13570420]. The disturbances have been fuelled by right-wing activists using social media to spread misinformation about the July 29 knife attack. The family of one of the victims thanked their community for the outpouring of love and support. The unrest has largely dissipated since Wednesday night, when a wave of expected far-right demonstrations failed to materialize after thousands of peaceful protesters flocked to locations around the UK to show their support for immigrants and asylum seekers. Prime Minister Keir Starmer said âswift justice has been dispensed in our courtsâ, some protesters sentenced to up to three years in prison.
