King Charles III will lead the first edition of the Troops in Color since formally ascending the British throne. The event is a celebration of the king’s birthday. This is an official infantry tradition and does not occur on the official date of birth of the monarch.
According to the Portuguese magazine Flash! , Charles wants to impress and make it completely different from what happened in the days of his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, to celebrate his reign. Therefore, he wants to save an ancient tradition and parade on horseback.
The last time this happened was in 1985. The following year, Elizabeth II, who turned 60, began to parade to the public in a carriage. However, Charles’ decision was considered dangerous, with many “risk factors” for the 74-year-old monarch.
According to real professionals, one of the risk factors is the problem that Charles has with his spine, the result of many years of playing polo. Showing horses can help intensify pain in the long run, as well as potentially hurt the appearance if any discomfort appears at the time.
heat
The most worrying thing is the hot weather hitting London these days. As summer approaches, temperatures rise in the city. Last Saturday (10), during an event with Prince William, three members of the British Royal Guard fainted. Thermometers showed 30°C and woolen clothing and bearskin contributed to the malaise.
Harry and Megan
A royal source said that Prince Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle, will not attend the Trooping of the Color ceremony next weekend.
Richard Eden told the Daily Mail: “I hear Prince Harry and Meghan have not been invited to the King’s Birthday Fashion Show next weekend.” “I’m afraid this is a reflection of the state of relations at the moment,” a source told the newspaper.
“expulsion of kings”
The prince, the youngest in the reign of King Charles III, has claimed he fears being “expelled from the royal family” over the uproar of being not the son of King Charles III, but of Major James Hewitt, an alleged outsider of his mother, the late Princess Diana.
Fearing that Hewitt was his biological father, Harry only realized at the age of 30 that Diana and Major’s relationship took place after 1984. At cross-examination, the Duke of Sussex confirmed that the rumors were “very harmful” to his life. He defined rumors about the matter as “painful”, “frivolous”, and “cruel”.
