Royal Family News: Queen Camilla's Day Out, Prince William in Uniform
Ever since the House of Windsor was founded in 1917, the royal family has made headlines for more than just being part of the monarchy. Royal family news—from history-making weddings to shockingly acrimonious splits to keeping protocol intact—over the past few decades has offered plenty of material for royal watchers to consider. And now, following Queen Elizabeth’s death after her 70-year reign, King Charles, Queen Camilla, Prince William, and Kate Middleton have put a focus on modernization, appearing at engagements around the world and promoting causes and supporting charities close to their hearts. Whether it’s Prince William traversing the globe in support of his environmental initiative, the Earthshot Prize, or Princess Kate emphasizing the importance of early childhood through her Shaping Us campaign, the royal family is in the spotlight more than ever before. It truly has become a family affair with Princess Anne, Zara and Mike Tindall, Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh, and more relatives all stepping up to continue Elizabeth’s legacy of service and devotion to her country.
Meanwhile across the sea, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry, who exited the royal family in an official capacity back in 2020, continue their work on projects like the servicemen- and servicewomen-focused Invictus Games and the couple’s Archewell Foundation. And there’s a new generation of young royals growing up alongside the crown too, with Kate and William’s children Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis, all making more appearances at royal engagements.
