KING CHARLES ‘EMOTIONAL’ DURING CANADA VISIT<\/strong><\/p>\n His Majesty was well received, particularly in the context of President Donald Trump suggesting the country should become the 51st state of the United States of America – effectively an annexation threat.<\/p>\n This has angered Canadians, leading to a boost in nationalism and, from what I observed, an increase in support for the Monarchy.<\/p>\n Despite the celebratory feel of the royal visit, the King looked and sounded rather emotional at certain points. The first time I noticed this was outside Canada’s Senate, ahead of officially opening the 45th session of the country’s Parliament.<\/p>\n Having arrived via horse-drawn carriage with Queen Camilla, he inspected a 100-person guard of honour and stood on the Dias.<\/p>\n Then, he spotted the crowds, who were extremely happy to see their King, singing along with the military band, playing the national anthem. He appeared visibly moved by the crowd’s reaction to him, gazing with a poignant expression.<\/p>\n Inside, His Majesty delivered a speech, written by his Government in Canada, led by Prime Minister Mark Carney.<\/p>\n The final line of His Majesty’s lengthy speech read: “May you honour the profound trust bestowed upon you by Canadians, and may God bless and guide you in all your duties.”<\/p>\n As he said this, King Charles’ voice appeared to crack. A royal source told me his voice genuinely cracked with emotion, on the brink of tears.<\/p>\n So, what made King Charles so emotional on Tuesday? Was it the sense of pride Canadians have for their homeland, as they face Donald Trump’s hostilities?<\/p>\n Or, perhaps, the fact that he was standing on Canadian soil for the first time as sovereign? Of course, we cannot read King Charles’s mind, but gone are the days when our Monarch shows no emotion. <\/p>\n His mother, Queen Elizabeth II, rarely (if ever) got emotional in public. King Charles is 76 and continues a weekly cycle of cancer treatment. A senior Palace official told me there has been “no change” in his condition.<\/p>\n King Charles ’emotional’ during Canada visit.<\/p>\n Getty \/ GB News<\/p>\n ROYALS RALLY AROUND LIVERPOOL AFTER ALLEGED ATTACK<\/strong><\/p>\n The incident made global headlines and triggered an unusually quick response from the Royal Family.<\/p>\n The next day, Princess Anne visited the Royal Liverpool University Hospital, where she met with medical staff and emergency service workers who treated the injured.<\/p>\n Although it is common in such circumstances for a member of the Royal Family to visit the injured in hospital, it usually does not happen a day after the alleged event.<\/p>\n I understand the Princess Royal was scheduled to be on an “away day” in Liverpool on Tuesday anyway, and decided to make time to meet medical staff treating the injured.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, the King released a statement saying he and the Queen were “shocked and saddened” and that their “prayers and deepest sympathy” were with all those affected.<\/p>\n The Prince and Princess of Wales added that they were “deeply saddened” and their “thoughts are with those injured” and with the emergency services.<\/p>\n Princess Anne visited the Royal Liverpool University Hospital.<\/p>\n PA<\/p>\n PRINCE HARRY JETS ACROSS OCEAN TO PREACH SUSTAINABILITY<\/strong><\/p>\n This week, Prince Harry made a surprise trip to China to warn about climate change and championed sustainable tourism, clashing with his father’s visit to Canada.<\/p>\n The Duke of Sussex travelled to Shanghai in his role as founder of sustainable travel firm Travalyst to speak at a tourism conference.<\/p>\n In his first visit to the country, he urged businesses in the region to focus on looking after the planet, conceding that meaningful change is never easy.<\/p>\n Prince Harry’s visit to China has been met with criticism; he flew thousands of miles across an ocean to attend the conference, when internet video calling is now readily available.<\/p>\n According to the International Council on Clean Transportation, roughly 2.5 tonnes of carbon dioxide per passenger is released from a commercial plane flying from Los Angeles to Shanghai.<\/p>\n This is based on the global CO2 average emissions per passenger-kilometre for commercial aviation in economy class; it is unknown which cabin Prince Harry travelled in, but a more premium cabin means more CO2 is released per passenger (this is because of the extra floor space per seat.)<\/p>\n Perhaps Prince Harry was advised that his physical presence at the tourism conference would offset his own carbon footprint by encouraging more environmentally friendly travel. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"GB News’ Royal Correspondent Cameron Walker has provided his exclusive insight into engagements undertaken by the King, the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":145799,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7708],"tags":[8274,5105,7710,519,448],"class_list":{"0":"post-145798","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-royals","8":"tag-membership","9":"tag-royal","10":"tag-royal-families","11":"tag-royal-family","12":"tag-royals"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114600373952469484","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/145798","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=145798"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/145798\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/145799"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=145798"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=145798"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=145798"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"King](\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/king-charles.png\")
