'Stay in Balmoral will be more relaxed under King - royals were in awe of Queen'

Almost a year has passed since the sad loss of our beloved late monarch, Queen Elizabeth II. But the memories of her dedication to duty, her unflappable nature and her wicked sense of humour live on. She had many incredible achievements to her name: she was the longest-serving monarch in British history – her reign was the third longest in world history – and the first to celebrate a Platinum Jubilee.

With summer coming to an end, the royal family have travelled to their Scottish estate of Balmoral, where the late Queen Elizabeth II passed away last September.The country will mark the one-year anniversary of her passing on September 8, and the royals have already arrived at what was thought to be her favourite royal estate. Senior royals, including King Charles and Queen Camilla, were photographed driving to a Sunday church service, held within the estate's grounds.They were joined by a number of other royals, including Prince William and Kate Middleton, who drove to the service in the same car as the disgraced Prince Andrew.

King Charles, his wife Queen Camilla, William and Kate ventured out to church in Balmoral this weekend as the core of the Royal Family enjoy a summer break. This is the first break the family has spent at Balmoral since the death of the late Queen in September 2022, at the same estate in Scotland, reports the Mirror.

He continues to be a liability to the royal family.

Prince Harry apparently has "no intention" of rendezvousing with his father King Charles III and brother Prince William next month. It was reported just last week that the Duke of Sussex, 38, would engage in "peace talks" with his estranged family members as the royals mark the first anniversary of Queen Elizabeth II's death. However, these plans have been seemingly ripped up and binned, with a source telling The Mirror that their relationship remains "firmly rooted at rock bottom" and will not be burying their grievances.

There’s a big difference to the annual Balmoral summer holiday for the royal family this year. After the death of the Queen, who passed away at her beloved Aberdeenshire estate last September, things will take a while to get used to for staff this year as for the first time ever, it was King Charles inspecting the troops in the Guard of Honour as he arrived at the castle gates as part of the traditional welcome ceremony that awaits the monarch.

King Charles already had access to an impressive portfolio of homes that stretched as far south as Tamarisk House on the Isles to Scilly to The Castle of Mey in Northern Scotland - but he has now added several more. While many of these official residences are controlled by The Crown Estate there are some properties, such as Balmoral Castle and Sandringham House, which are privately owned. Throughout his many years as Prince of Wales, The King lived in a number of properties - but always had his eye on one home in particular.

Members of the Royal Family have hugely important titles which date back centuries - and it is no different today. But what you may not realise is that royals such as the Princess of Wales or the Duchess of Edinburgh don't just have one title, but several.

Mirror reports. Charles plans to chisel out specific roles for his son and heir Prince William, as well as Princess Kate and Queen Camilla.“His Majesty is very clear.

King Charles is quietly opening up Balmoral to the public for a longer amount of time as he extends the estate's commercial activities, according to reports.

King Charles III is set to hold a royal summit to decide the future of the monarchy, according to royal sources.

The poignant image of Anne, Princess Royal last September escorting her mother’s casket during her solemn final journey from Balmoral to Windsor is one that remains etched on the minds of so many of us. Now, as she celebrates her 73rd birthday, she faces more heartache as the one year anniversary of Queen Elizabeth II’s death approaches.

The Royal Family’s time at the Balmoral Estate will undoubtedly be filled with physical pursuits such as long country walks, deer stalking and horse riding, with quieter moments punctuated by picnics, barbeques and fly-fishing in the River Dee. Former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond spoke to OK! about how the royals typically spend their time together in the Highlands.

Prince William is now in charge of Prince Harry’s former military unit — by order of their father, King Charles III.

Princess Catherine just got a promotion.

King Charles III has bestowed new military titles to Prince William, the next in line to the British royal throne and his eldest son, as well as his wife, Kate Middleton. Buckingham Palace announced this week that William now holds the titles of Colonel-in-Chief of The Mercian Regiment, Colonel-in-Chief of The Army Air Corps, and Royal Honorary Air Commodore of the RAF Valley.As for Kate, she is now Commodore-in-Chief of the Fleet Air Arm, Colonel-in-Chief of the 1st Queen’s Dragoon Guards, and Royal Honorary Air Commodore of the RAF Coningsby.Other members of the royal family to receive new military titles include King Charles himself, his wife, Queen Camilla, the king's youngest brother, Prince Edward, his wife, Sophie, Charles' sister, Princess Anne, and the late Queen Elizabeth II's cousin, Prince Richard.

Buckingham Palace has announced that several senior members of the Royal Family will be taking on new military roles. It has been said that the new appointments will continue to reflect the close relationship between the Armed Forces and the Royal Family in King Charles' reign.

King Charles III, Prince William and Princess Kate are figuring out how to honor the late Queen Elizabeth II on the first anniversary of her death later this year.

Whilst the Royal Family might have an extensive portfolio of grand properties across the country, there is one estate which was bought for a surprisingly low price.
