Aides have reportedly said that His Majesty's attendance at any event is 'to be hoped for and planned for rather than assumed', as he continues to focus on his health.

For now, he will continue to balance supporting his wife and family, and maintaining his official duties as he has done since her operation in January.

Anne Daley, 65, from Cardiff, Wales, held up a Welsh flag when the King arrived said: 'Did you see the smile (Charles) gave me? He pointed at my flag. He had a lovely smile. He looked well. I think he was happy that we've all come.'
She added: 'I wanted to show my support for King Charles and the Princess of Wales who we are all wishing well. We want to show them that we miss them, Wales misses her. She may not be here but she is not forgotten.'
The Easter Matins Service - as it is officially known - concluded around 11.45am.
The King was applauded by members of the public as he left St George's Chapel to cries of "Happy Easter". Camilla was presented with a posy of white and yellow flowers by a young boy.
