Buckingham Palace hesitates to confirm King Charles Trooping the Colour plans

Buckingham Palace has made surprising announcement about King Charles III’s first overseas trip since his cancer diagnosis, but hanging back to confirm the monarch’s Trooping the Colour plans.

The 75-year-old King, who became the first monarch to appear on horseback for the Trooping the Colour last June, is expected to break the tradition of riding on horseback by travelling via carriage during this summer’s Trooping the Colour parade.King Charles’ office seems to be hesitant to reveal the monarch’s plans about the much-awaited royal family’s event.

However, the Palace has confirmed “forthcoming engagements will be adapted where necessary” to accommodate for the King’s recovery following his cancer treatment.

“The King is most likely to be taking part in Trooping via carriage this year but a final decision is yet to be made,” a source told The Times.

It’s being claimed that that Palace does not want King Charles to take any risk on his big day while battling with cancer as an incident involving a fidgeting horse during last year’s event appears to have done little to persuade courtiers to convince the King to appear on horseback again this year.
