The King of England has no longer appeared in public, favoring the calm of his home at Clarence House for the moment. He appeared smiling, surrounded by several members of his clan.
At his side stood his wife Camilla, who has been replacing him for several months during major events. Prince Edward and his wife, Sophie of Wessex, also made the trip. Prince William and Kate Middleton, who revealed she had cancer on March 22, were, unsurprisingly, conspicuous by their absence.
