There will be no official public event to mark the first anniversary of the death of Queen Elizabeth II, a royal spokesman has said.
King Charles is to spend 8 September “quietly and privately”. The day also marks his own accession to the throne.
Nor are there any plans for a private gathering of the Royal Family on the anniversary of the late Queen’s death.
Senior royals will be in Balmoral in Aberdeenshire over the summer, the place where the Queen died last year.
Queen Elizabeth II’s death, at the age of 96, followed the longest reign of any British monarch.
The King is following his mother’s tradition – the late monarch spent the anniversaries of her father’s death, and the start of her reign, in what used to be termed “private reflection” – with no planned official events.
If there are other commemorative events in the week of the anniversary, King Charles and Queen Camilla are not expected to attend.
