On February 13, 2025, King Charles III and Queen Camilla visited Middlesbrough. This visit marks the first time a Head of State has visited the town since Queen Elizabeth II in 1993. King Charles and Queen Camilla attended several engagements before a celebratory walkabout in Centre Square. Queen Camilla visited Middlesbrough's International Centre, while King Charles toured the SeAH wind turbine factory at Teesworks.
Queen Camilla then attended a National Literacy Trust showcase at the Town Hall alongside hundreds of primary schoolchildren. She joined 750 children from 12 local schools, Children’s Laureate Frank Cottrell-Boyce, and author Nadia Shireen on stage before presenting five students with their 'Star Reader' certificates. The trust is an independent charity that empowers children, and young people with the literacy skills they need to succeed.
Always nice to see them. Nice coat for the Queen today.
ReplyDeleteNice outfit, love the butterfly brooch.
ReplyDeleteIs Charles wearing his father’s coat? Full value to those who buy classic fashion that can be worn for years and then handed to the next generation!
ReplyDeleteHe is, and not for the first time. He sported that coat serveral times now. I love that. I still have a black coat from the early 1970's that once belonged to my long deceased mother. Classic piece.
DeleteWow! how fabulous that the King is wearing this wonderful warm, classic piece. I had no idea either and thank you DSC for the intel, so interesting.
DeleteI'm not sure it's the same coat as Prince Philip's. The pockets are different.
DeleteCharles always looks so happy when he is with Camilla!
ReplyDeleteWell noticed!
DeleteThank you to the author of this article and to those who wrote the headline. Thank you for getting Middlesbrough's county identity absolutely correct.
ReplyDeleteI love the butterfly brooch. ~ Louise
ReplyDeleteCamilla porte un élégant manteau sur lequel elle a su agrafer une belle broche papillon doublée de celle représentant une abeille !
ReplyDeleteUn beau manteau, une jolie nuance de bleu. J'aime aussi ses gants et ses broches. Paloma.
ReplyDeleteLovely coat. Nice to see them together. They really enjoy working together.
