The Queen And Harrison Machin, 5, Plant The Final Poppies In An Installation At The Tower Of London To

King Charles |||💬 “Now, as then, we are united in giving utmost thanks to all those who served in the Armed Forces, the uniformed services, the Home Front, indeed all the people of this country, the Commonwealth and beyond whose firm resolve and fortitude helped destroy Nazism and carry our allied nations through to V.E. Day. That debt can never truly be repaid; but we can, and we will, remember them.“

Tonight, at a concert to mark #VEDay80, The King paid tribute to all those who sacrificed their lives in World War Two.

His Majesty’s speech was delivered at 9pm, the exact same time that his grandfather, King George VI, made a radio broadcast on VE day in 1945.

Good morning, everyone! As we enjoy this beautiful Sunday, I wanted to take a moment to wish you all a wonderful day filled with joy, love, and relaxation. Whether you're spending time with family and friends, exploring the great outdoors, or simply taking a well-deserved break, I hope you're making the most of this special day.

As I look out at the world around me, I'm reminded of the importance of taking time to appreciate the little things and connect with those who matter most. So, let's make today count! Let's cherish every moment, big or small, and make memories that will last a lifetime.

From my family to yours, happy Sunday! May it be a day filled with laughter, happiness, and all your favorite things.

“The darkest moments of illness can be illuminated by the greatest compassion.”

This evening, The King and Queen hosted a reception in recognition of the incredible work that community-based organisations do to support those living with cancer, and to raise awareness of preventative actions people can take to avoid cancer.

Accompanied by The Duchess of Gloucester, Their Majesties spent time with representatives from their patronages, including Macmillan Cancer Support and Maggie's Centres, and learnt more about the practical work delivered by other initiatives, such as:

💃 Move Dance Feel, which unites women affected by cancer through dance;

🌈 Rainbow Boxes, which offers practical items as people start cancer treatment;

💆 …and Wigs For Heroes, which supports people facing cancer related hair loss.

Amongst guests were also champions of cancer charities and those living with cancer, including Adele Roberts; Amy Dowden; Ashley Cain; Maren Sheldon, CoppaFeel! Co-Founder and twin sister of the late Kris Hallenga; and Alistair and Heather James, parents of the late Dame Deborah James. Thank you for all that you do.

We remember and pay tribute to all those who served during the Second World War.
