After a difficult year due to illness, King Charles III and Queen Camilla chose to enjoy their holidays, taking up residence in Scotland for the entire summer season, a much-needed break that had been cut short the previous year.
On the first Saturday in August, Prince William’s father attended the Mey Highland Games. For the occasion, he stayed with his wife at the Castle of Mey. For the rest of the summer, he is expected to move to Balmoral Castle or at Birkhall Manor. A relaxing place where Queen Camilla can indulge in one of her passions: reading.
