King Charles to call for acts of friendship in first public remarks since Kate’s cancer diagnosis
CNN
The King has recorded a message for Maundy Thursday that will address the importance of acts of friendship “especially in a time of need.”
King Charles III has recorded a message for Maundy Thursday that will address the importance of acts of friendship “especially in a time of need,” following his and Catherine, Princess of Wales’ cancer diagnoses, according to the UK’s PA Media news agency. The King’s audio message — which will be played at the annual Royal Maundy service at Worcester Cathedral in England on Thursday — will be his first public comments since Catherine revealed she was undergoing chemotherapy. Charles, who is also currently undergoing treatment for cancer, is not attending the service, with his wife, Queen Camilla, handing out traditional Maundy gifts on his behalf. Queen Camilla’s attendance comes as Charles steps back from public-facing duties as he undergoes treatment. The King is, however, expected to attend church on Easter Sunday alongside his wife, marking his most significant public appearance since his diagnosis. Maundy Thursday — also known as Holy Thursday — is a Christian event that takes place each year on the Thursday before Easter. It is an ancient ceremony that dates back to 600 A.D. and marks how Jesus washed the feet of disciples at the Last Supper.
