King Charles continues to increase his public appearances as he and Queen Camilla prepare to attend today's Garter Day service.
Charles has hit the ground running since returning to public-facing royal duties at the end of April – visiting the theater and embarking on overseas trips – while continuing his cancer treatment.
On Monday, he will join other members of the royal family at the traditional celebration commemorating the Ladies and Knights of the ancient Order of the Garter.
The monarch's latest appearance comes two days after the Princess of Wales joined him for her official birthday celebrations at the Trooping of the Color Parade.
The event marked Kate's official return to royal duties since receiving her own cancer diagnosis earlier this year, having remained out of the public eye while she recovers.
In a moving statement on Friday, Kate, 42, revealed that she has good and bad days while undergoing “preventive chemotherapy” for an undisclosed form of the disease. She admitted that she is “not out of the woods yet.”
A day after the appearance, she shared a touching Father's Day message on social media from George, Charlotte and Louis, praising her husband, Prince William.
