Prince Andrew is tipped to be joining the rest of the Royal Family at St George’s Chapel in Windsor for the Easter Sunday Mattins service, in spite of his status as a non-working royal.
King Charles and Queen Camilla have already confirmed they will be there, in the first public appearance for His Majesty since news of his cancer diagnosis was announced in February.
Due to the King’s condition there will be fewer people in attendance, with Prince William, Princess Kate and their three children not going to be there as Kate undergoes preventative chemotherapy.
The Duke of York may no longer be permitted certain privileges due to his disgraced status, for instance he no longer appears on the Buckingham Palace balcony, but he can still attend private family events.
This explains why he attends church with the Firm at Sandringham on Christmas Day and also why he was at King Constantine of Greece’s memorial service last month.
Taking to Instagram after her second cancer diagnosis, Sarah told her fans: “I have been taking some time to myself as I have been diagnosed with malignant melanoma, a form of skin cancer, my second cancer diagnosis within a year after I was diagnosed with breast cancer this summer and underwent a mastectomy and reconstructive surgery.
“It was thanks to the great vigilance of my dermatologist that the melanoma was detected when it was. Naturally, another cancer diagnosis has been a shock but I’m in good spirits and grateful for the many messages of love and support.”
It has not been revealed exactly what cancer the King is being treated for, but his prognosis is said to be good and doctors are reportedly pleased with his progress.
