King Charles shares poignant update that involves Princess Anne

The Royal Family will mark a very special anniversary and King
Charles has given his sister, Princess Anne, a central role in
proceedings.

The royals will gather on April 20th and 21st to mark the
centenary of the birth of Queen Elizabeth II.

And while King Charles will take on a special role at one event,
he’s putting his sister in charge of one of the most moving events
of all.

On the morning of the 100th anniversary, the Princess Royal will
officially open the new memorial garden to Queen Elizabeth II.

It’s located in Regent’s Park and it is set to be a place of
tranquillity and reflection in the heart of London. As a young
princess, Elizabeth spent many hours playing in London’s parks and
the memorial to here there is among the most poignant.

Ahead of the anniversary itself, King Charles and Queen Camilla
will visit the brand new exhibition about the life and legacy of
Queen Elizabeth II, now open in central London.

Queen Elizabeth II: Her Life in Style is at The King’s Gallery,
near Buckingham Palace and tells the story of the longest reigning
Monarch in British history through her image. Among the items on
show are her wedding dress, her Coronation dress and the stunning
ruby and aquamarine tiaras that she had designed during her
reign.

The Royal Family will gather on the morning of the anniversary
to see the latest plans for the national memorial that is being
created to mark the life and reign of Queen Elizabeth II. Designer,
Lord Norman Foster, will talk to the royals about the development
of the work which will include art created by a variety of
experts.

Later, the Royal Family will join King Charles and Queen Camilla
at Buckingham Palace for a reception marking the centenary of Queen
Elizabeth’s birth. Also there will be some of those celebrating
their own 100th birthdays this year and King Charles will
personally present them with the royal card sent to all who reach
that milestone.
