King Charles has conveyed his profound shock and grief in a heartfelt statement issued by Buckingham Palace. The monarch, who remains estranged from his younger son, Prince Harry, addressed the devastation caused by recent catastrophic flooding in Central Europe.
In his message, King Charles expressed deep concern: “My wife and I are profoundly shocked and saddened to see the destruction and devastation caused by the catastrophic flooding in Central Europe.” He highlighted the strong ties many in the UK have with the region and extended his “deepest and most heartfelt condolences” to those affected by the disaster.
The monarch also praised the courage and dedication of the emergency services, who have worked tirelessly to provide relief to the countless lives disrupted by the floods.
This statement follows news of Prince Harry’s upcoming visit to the UK to attend the WellChild Awards, an event he has supported as patron for 16 years. Amid ongoing royal tensions, there is speculation about the future of Harry’s relationship with his father, as King Charles, currently undergoing cancer treatment, reportedly accelerates plans for succession.
The possibility of Prince Harry’s more frequent royal engagements remains uncertain, as royal dynamics continue to unfold.
