Richie, who is the King’s Trust Global Ambassador, shared that he is thrilled to see Charles stepping into the king role and has known him for a long time.
Buckingham Palace revealed Charles’ cancer diagnosis in February, following a corrective procedure for an enlarged prostate. After starting treatments, Charles returned to public duties in April, visiting the University College Hospital Macmillan Cancer Centre with Queen Camilla to mark the milestone. Next on their agenda is hosting the emperor and empress of Japan in June.
