The Times reported that the King and Queen will begin their trip to Oceania on Friday, October 18th, and their tour will end on Saturday, October 26th.
Two doctors will join the royal entourage.
Earlier this week, it was reported that the King would pause his treatment for cancer while abroad. The Times also mentioned that the monarch will be closely monitored during the visit.
The King received his diagnosis after the procedure, and Buckingham Palace announced on February 5th that he would begin treatment for the disease. Although the palace clarified that Charles’s cancer is not prostate cancer, it did not specify the type or stage.
In April, Buckingham Palace shared that Charles was encouraged by his doctors’ announcement that he could resume public duties during his treatment. A palace spokesperson said it was too soon to determine how long the King would need treatment, but doctors were pleased with his progress.
Since resuming his duties on April 30th with a visit to University College Hospital MacMillan Cancer Centre, the King has had a full schedule. Historian Hugo Vickers told The Times, “I’m sure the medical team has been consulted and will ensure the King doesn’t overwork, as he tends to do.”
The ceremony, known as Trooping the Colour or the King’s Birthday Parade, commemorates the British sovereign’s birthday. The tradition began during King Charles II’s reign and takes place at Horse Guards Parade. The Household Division, comprising seven regiments, is represented in the parade, with the Irish Guards Number Nine Company receiving their colours this year.
