“She was beautiful,” he said. “One man in the crowd described her as porcelain. She was particularly friendly with the children in the carriage. The crowd cheered as the King’s carriage approached, and they cheered even louder when they realised Catherine was standing behind.”
Schofield also said that when the family returned to Buckingham Palace in their carriage, “there was such a volley of applause rained down on the crowd that the family clearly reacted. The children certainly felt some sympathy!”

Yesterday, she released a statement on social media, telling her followers, “I’m making good progress, but as anyone who has gone through chemotherapy will know, there are good days and bad days. On those bad days you feel weak, tired and you need to give your body a rest. But on the good days, when you feel strong, you want to fully enjoy feeling good.”
She further added, “My treatment is ongoing and will continue for a few more months. On days when I feel well enough, I enjoy keeping myself busy with school life, spending personal time on things that give me energy and positivity, as well as doing some work from home.”

Trooping the Colour is held every year in June to celebrate the monarch’s birthday, regardless of when their actual birthday occurs. The annual event is highlighted by the ceremonial presentation of the military’s flags or “colours.”
King Charles III (cl) and Queen Camilla (cr) stand with Prince George, Prince William, Prince Louis, Catherine, Princess of Wales, Princess Charlotte, Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh, Prince Edward, Lady Louise Windsor and Princess Anne on the balcony of Buckingham Palace after attending the King’s Birthday Parade “Trooping the Colour” in London on June 15, 2024.
“Ironically, the very first Trooping the Colour movement was started by King Charles II in the 1600s,” says Christopher Anderson, author “King,” told Fox News Digital.
“But they didn’t change the date until Edward VII took the throne from his mother, Queen Victoria, in 1901,” Anderson said. “King Charles III’s birthday is in November … Well, King Edward’s birthday was in November, too, and he didn’t like the weather then. So he said, ‘It would be better to have the parade in June.’ And so, they changed the day to the first week of June, the first Saturday or the second Saturday of June. And it’s been that way ever since.”
