King Charles makes major decision over Queen Elizabeth’s first death anniversary

The death of the throne holder is a bittersweet moment for the Royal Family. On one hand, they lose their loved one (mostly a parent) and on the other hand, they get to become the monarch and fulfil their destiny.

Queen Elizabeth II’s death last year was the same moment for King Charles. As the late Queen’s death marks its first anniversary, King Charles plans to spend it privately.

King Charles to mark Queen’s death anniversary privately

According to Sky News, King Charles and Queen Camilla will not be holding a family gathering at Balmoral estate to commemorate the passing of the late monarch. There is no public event planned either for the occasion.

The King and Queen are currently on their traditional summer break and as a custom, they will not be attending any public engagements during the week of the anniversary of Queen Elizabeth II's death. King Charles’ decision to mark his mother’s death anniversary is similar to Queen Elizabeth II’s way of spending his father’s death anniversary. She used to mark the passing of her father King George VI privately at Sandringham.
