Constantine didn’t even make the funeral despite having closer ties to the British Royal Family. So he is pretty likely to go first. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
arghton 6,739 Posted May 7, 2023 Didn't attend the coronation and it's said that last month a publicly announced lunch that he was going to have with Charles was quietly cancelled "last minute". Other royals who didn't attend the coronation include Norway's Harald (ill health), Denmark's Margrethe (ill health & recovering from surgery), Saudi Arabia's Salman (advanced dementia & other ill health), Kuwait's Nawaf (ill health - frequent hospitalisations abroad, rumored terminal stomach cancer) and Morocco's Mohammed VI (could be just protocol but known to have suffered from severe heart problems in the past and also rumored to suffer from cancer) Actually I think the only non-UK octogenarian royals there were Beatrix, old Tsar Simeon and Kuwait's Crown Prince, all looked good for their ages. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The royals in Europe are all close, relatively anyway. Or so I've heard. Domestically perception is often different, especially with his scandals as of late.

Felipe and Letizia were there, and it was probably limited to two. A lot of people were left out, even family members. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DoorSlammer 563 Posted September 8, 2023 His sailing boat won the 6 Metre Classic Division for the third time and with his victory comes a new photo: Seems he was also well enough to give a (short) statement about his win. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
