FILLING THE LATE QUEEN’S SHOES WILL BE NO EASY FEAT
SWEET PROMISE to Mummy

Eight months have passed since Her Majesty the Queen died – her death signalling the end of a glorious 70-year reign.

And while the royal family have done their best to carry on, her absence was still keenly felt as her successor, Charles, officially became King of the United Kingdom and the 14 other realms of the Commonwealth.

Insiders tell New Idea that his “darling mummy” would have very much been front of Charles’ mind as he recited his vows to the archbishop of Canterbury during the ceremony.

“It was likely an emotional moment for the King,” says one insider. “No doubt a lot of memories came flooding back.”

Indeed, even though he was only 4 years old at the time, Charles remembers his mother’s own 1953 investiture like it was yesterday.
