Where King Charles and Queen Camilla would usually spend Easter

King Charles will make his first appearance at a major royal event when the family comes together to celebrate Easter Sunday at St George's Chapel, Windsor. While the late Queen always traditionally held the spring celebration in Windsor, King Charles and Queen Camilla have often opted to spend the time privately at their Birkhall home near the Balmoral Estate in Scotland. Birkhall was built in 1715 and was originally owned by the Farquharson family, before being acquired by the Gordon family.

Why King Charles celebrates 2 birthdays — but Prince William won’t as monarch
Trooping the Colour.King Charles III will attend his first Trooping the Colour parade as sovereign on June 17 and it will mark his official birthday.However, the 74-year-old’s completion of another trip around the sun is actually on November 14.So why does the monarch observe two birthdays every year?The answer lies in something pretty unexpected: the weather.Trooping the Colour has been a tradition in the royal family since 1748.However, Edward VII — who reigned from 1901 to 1910 — was born in November, and he decided to move the bash to June because there was less likely to be rainy skies.And he didn’t want anything to ruin the joyful occasion. But the custom may wane if Prince William or his oldest son, Prince George, take the throne in the future.George, 9, celebrates his big day on July 22, while the Prince of Wales, 40, honors his birthday on this year’s summer solstice, June 21.During the Trooping the Colour, hundreds of soldiers and horses stomp the ground from Buckingham Palace to Horse Guards Parade.Members of the royal family ride alongside the military personnel on horseback and in carriages.The late Queen Elizabeth often participated in the parade, despite her birthday being in April.
