Queen Camilla resumes rightful role

Last year, Queen Camilla was unable to attend due to battling a seasonal chest infection.

Consequently, that meant that Princess Kate was the highest-ranking royal on the balcony in 2024.

Because of this, Camilla return switches up the roles again.

Queen Camilla’s attendance this year means Kate relinquishes the spot of highest-ranking royal on the balcony, as Camilla resumed her rightful role this morning.

Meanwhile, Duchess Sophie also looked on at her husband, Prince Edward, who laid a wreath.

Unsurprisingly, she looked visibly emotional and was seen wiping her eye.
