Story

Princess Catherine of Wales expressed her regret for missing the Irish Guards' parade rehearsal, known as the Colonel's Review, due to her ongoing cancer treatment. In a letter to the guards, she conveyed her pride in being their honorary colonel and hoped to represent them again soon. The annual Trooping the Colour parade, marking the king's birthday, will be overseen by King Charles III on June 15. Despite his own cancer treatment, the king will participate in the ceremony, likely seated with Queen Camilla. The Irish Guards were moved by Catherine's letter and wished her a speedy recovery. King Charles, who inspected troops on horseback last year, will be part of the event filled with military pageantry.
