Elizabeth, who passed away last September at the age of 96, was the fifth royal family member, according to The Daily Express, to put her stamp on the Royal Philatelic Collection.

King Charles has always been a vocal advocate for protecting the environment as he has been campaigning for climate change for over 50 years and was a true pioneer for the social cause before it became the global emergency that it is today.

sausage fingers — he’s a “sandwich” now.Russell Myers, the Daily Mirror’s royal editor, recently revealed that he believes that King Charles’ reign is just acting as a stall for time — a “sandwich” between the late Queen Elizabeth II’s monarchy and the future king William’s. The topic was brought up on last week’s episode of the “Pod Save The King” podcast, as Myers and the show’s host, Ann Gripper, were discussing Joe Biden’s recent visit to England, where he met with Charles, 74, at Windsor Castle.

The Prince of Wales, 41, plans to rent out the quaint cottage, which the king purchased in 2007 for an estimated $1.5 million, and has since renovated with the help of architect Craig Hamilton and input from Queen Camilla and her interior designer sister Annabel Elliot, The Mail on Sunday has reported.

met for the first time during the monarch’s reign on Monday, and all eyes were on them.The politician, 80, encountered the 74-year-old sovereign at Windsor Castle, where many people believed that Biden breached protocol.Body language expert Judi James gave some insight into the pair’s gathering on the sweltering July day.When Biden’s car pulled up to the royal residence, Charles came out to welcome him with a handshake.When they both walked together up a few steps, Biden gently placed his hand on Charles. James explained to the US Sun that protocol dictates that one must never touch a member of the royal family unless they extend their hand first.“Biden’s forthcoming touch rituals might not have been offensive but they would have been unusual,” she said. “[He] treated the king as he might a cherished friend that he had not seen for a while.”The handshake the two shared involved “close torso proximity,” and, according to James, “this was performed inside what is known as the intimate zone of friendship.”Sometime later, when the men went to ceremoniously inspect the Guard of Honor, Biden was several paces in front of the sovereign.She went on: “The walking in front protocol is said to be based on hierarchy, meaning no one in the United Kingdom would walk in front of a king or queen.

had a conversation at Windsor Castle on Monday and many fans were wondering if the 80-year-old politician breached royal protocol.When Biden’s vehicle first approached the residence, Charles, 74, came out to welcome him with a handshake.As they both walked together up some steps, Biden gently placed his hand on Charles.

Trooping the Colour last month.“The composition of this ‘slimmed down’ royal balcony pose looks like a gappy smile with several teeth missing,” James boldly told the Daily Express of the stark contrast to previous years’ assemblies.This year, only working members of the royal family were allowed on the balcony at Buckingham Palace during the event, which means that cousins Princess Beatrice, Princess Eugenie and Zara Tindall were not permitted.“Instead of a smaller, tighter, loyal group it looks like five factions in apparent conflict: Anne and Tim stand awkwardly at one end; William and Kate pose in a glittering but slightly cordoned-off family group; Charles and Camilla take all the goodwill from the crowds in the middle; Edward and Sophie try hard to create some sociable links with the Gloucesters at the other end,” James claimed to the outlet.“Any ‘One united family group’ vibe seems to be totally lacking,” James added.During Queen Elizabeth’s reign, the crowd was much bigger, as she had all of the members of the royal family — both working and nonworking — join her on the balcony.James noted that under her tenure, people looked “animated and excited.”Queen Elizabeth died last September at the age of 96 and had reigned for 70 years at the time of her death.The body language expert also pointed out that the sparse lineup only drew more attention to those who were missing from the family — like estranged Prince Harry.“The gaps only call to mind the people who are missing,” James told the outlet. “Charles once had a mother, father, brother, son and his son’s family to mingle with.“But each of the gaps now seems to tell its own tragic or murky tale,” she said.
