King Charles seems to have snubbed his beloved daughter-in-law Kate Middleton with his major decision as they both battle cancer. While Kate Middleton intends to return to her Royal duties soonest.
According to GB News, King Charles has made two major appointments ahead of Garter Day.
He has appointed former MI5 director general Baroness Manningham-Buller as Chancellor of the Order of the Garter and Tory peer and former insurance broker Lord Ashton of Hyde as the Master of the Horse, a ceremonial role in charge of the Royal Mews on state occasions.
The Garter Day parade is an annual event and the oldest ritual on the Royal calendar, in which the King and the Knights march wearing opulent velvet robes, shimmering emblems, and plumed caps.
The procession and service are held in the grounds of Windsor Castle to commemorate the Order of the Garter, the most senior and oldest Order of Chivalry in Britain.
The step coincides with growing demands to name The Princess of Wales, who is receiving chemotherapy following her cancer diagnosis, the Order of the Garter.
Following the Duke of Abercorn’s retirement, Lady Manningham-Buller will become the first female Chancellor of the oldest and most esteemed order of chivalry in Britain, having held the position from its founding in 475.
While the service this year is scheduled for Monday, June 17, both appointments will come into effect from Tuesday, June 18.
