King Charles has announced the end of the “transitional year” for the royal family, signalling towards a new era in the lead-up to the one year anniversary of the late Queen Elizabeth II's death on September 8.Following the summer break, the monarch summoned his eldest son and heir, William, to a private summit to establish plans for the next year and has filled his diary with engagements around the country.His Majesty also has an eagerly awaited State Visit to France planned and will mark his first tour of the Commonwealth with a trip to Kenya in the autumn.In addition to this, the King has agreed to a request from the Foreign Office for a landmark visit to Canada next year, one of the 14 British realms and at least another two European countries as the government plans to strengthen relationships with our nearest neighbours post Brexit.A programme has been designed for Charles, 74, to be supported by the Prince and Princess of Wales as they finally look to expand their work around the world on behalf of the British monarchy, the Mirror reports.Royal sources have hinted that future king William has grown “frustrated” at not being able to make plans for his new role until his father reached a decision on what his next steps were.One source claims: “Those decisions have certainly taken longer than one would have expected. "However, the King believes the next five years of his reign will shape his legacy and cement his place in history.

The choices made over the previous 12 months have set the foundations.”Yesterday fresh details of the King and Queen's upcoming visit to France were announced by Buckingham Palace, where the monarchs will also get involved with the men's Rugby World Cup, which kicks off this weekend.
