After the monarch taped a speech for the public that would be played during his absence at the Royal Maundy ceremony, King Charles made it plain that he is still “in charge.”
Charles will discuss how the nation “needs and benefits greatly from those who extend the hand of friendship to us, especially in a time of need” and how Jesus was a “model of how we should serve and care for each other.”
Speaking candidly with The Daily Beast, a source revealed that the monarch intended to make a “clear” statement reaffirming his authority in the midst of his cancer fight.
“Charles is recording a message for Maundy Thursday in an apparent attempt to maintain control.”
He has made it rather evident that he is still involved in behind-the-scenes work. As usual, his office is bustling with activity,” they continued.
The journal was informed by further sources that everything is “very much business as usual,” providing details about how the palace runs on a daily basis following Charles’s cancer diagnosis.
