King Charles and Queen Camilla shine during Aberdeen visit as royal focus shifts
Buckingham Palace has released details of King Charles III and Queen Camilla’s latest engagements in Aberdeen, coinciding with Sarah Ferguson’s recent admission about her worries for her daughters, Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie.
Fergie, affectionately known to the public, recently expressed her ongoing concerns for her daughters, stating that she “worries all the time,” despite both princesses being independent adults.
The Palace shared photos of the King, 76, and the Queen, 77, during their Aberdeen outings on Monday. Queen Camilla visited the University of Aberdeen's Sir Duncan Rice Library in her role as Chancellor to learn more about local community programmes.
A statement accompanying the images explained: “Her Majesty was introduced to students and staff involved in the university’s online PGDE primary education course, which widens access for those in Scotland seeking teaching qualifications but unable to attend on-campus learning.
“Her Majesty also met supporters and volunteers from the Aberdeen Football Club Community Trust, which carries out impactful work within the Aberdeenshire community.”
Meanwhile, King Charles visited The Gordon Highlanders Museum, where he met with volunteers and veterans, including 99-year-old D-Day veteran Jim Glennie. The Palace noted that Charles, known in Scotland as The Duke of Rothesay, served as Colonel-in-Chief of the regiment from 1978 until its amalgamation in 1994.
The royal family’s continued public engagements reflect their dedication to supporting local communities, offering a stark contrast to Ferguson’s heartfelt concerns for her daughters as they navigate their own royal and personal roles.
