King Charles III is set to return to public duties as he will attend an Easter service at the chapel at Windsor Castle with Camilla on Sunday.
The appearance will be the first major event for Charles, 75, since he was diagnosed with cancer in February.
However, the Prince and Princess of Wales are not expected to attend the event, amid Kate’s cancer diagnosis and treatment.
The news comes as a royal author said Prince Harry and Meghan Markle received a cool response from William following their text message of support in the wake of Kate’s cancer announcement.
The message, which was “engineered by the palace“ with the two brothers still estranged, reportedly had the tone of “two wary diplomats”.
According to royal expert Tom Quinn, the Sussexes contacted the Prince and Princess of Wales following the diagnosis but didn’t include any suggestion that they “should make up and let bygones be bygones”.
He added that it was “hardly the kind of warm, informal response” one may have expected.
