Royal fans worried for King Charles during Trooping the Colour as they all notice same thing

Fans of King Charles took to social media to express their distress, with the sight of the monarch saluting the Irish Guards in the rain during today's Trooping the Colour.

The 75-year-old is currently undergoing treatment for cancer, sparking concerns about his health.

Some users questioned why he was left standing in the cold and wet conditions: "It's a long old day for King Charles to stand in the rain tbh," one commented on the X app, while another said: "He will get pneumonia!!! Get him in! " Others suggested providing the king with a covered stand.

During today's event, observers noted that the King travelled in a carriage rather than his usual horseback ride. With a gloved hand, he acknowledged the crowd alongside Queen Elizabeth II, who also offered a wave to those gathered.

Despite the inclement weather, scores of Royal enthusiasts were spotted along the parade route in central London. It was a welcome sight for many to see the Princess of Wales, who recently disclosed her own cancer diagnosis, appear in public.

Kate Middleton spoke about her anticipation to participate in King Charles's birthday celebration in a recent video: "I'm looking forward to attending The King's Birthday Parade this weekend with my family and hope to join a few public engagements over the summer, but equally knowing I am not out of the woods yet.

"I am learning how to be patient, especially with uncertainty. Taking each day as it comes, listening to my body, and allowing myself to take this much-needed time to heal.", reports the Mirror.

Body language expert Judi James shared her insights with The Mirror on the balcony appearance, suggesting that Charles openly displayed his affection for his "beautiful daughter-in-law".

She said: "Charles let his feelings of pride and even gratitude towards his beautiful daughter-in-law be made obvious on their balcony appearance.

"Kate was treated by Charles as both a status equal and a cherished relation. Placed directly next to him in the line-up, it was Kate who was given the majority of the King's attention. Their chats looked animated and ended in shared laughter a couple of times. The way Kate leant in towards Charles to talk at the start suggested this is a mutually-supportive relationship.

"Kate relaxed as the chats went on and by the end of the appearance her wide, fun, dimpled smile had returned. Charles also seemed grateful for the empathetic bond with Kate as by the singing of the anthem he was looking brought close to tears by the crowd's support for them both.

"Kate and William treated the fans to one look of love that came after William had amused the children and Kate had made Charles laugh. It was a small but hugely telling glance that was exchanged between them, with William's puckered smile showing suppressed emotions of love, affection and gratitude, while Kate flashed back that dimpled and very congruent smile of delight to let her husband know all was well and the day had been a success."
