King Charles celebrated his 76th birthday on Nov. 14. On his big day, the monarch opened a new food bank where a “food festival” was held.
There, he was treated to a rendition of “Happy Birthday” sung by schoolchildren. The king also received a special birthday message from his eldest son, Prince William , and daughter-in-law, the Princess of Wales ( formerly known as Kate Middleton ), who posted on their X account : “Wishing a very Happy Birthday to His Majesty The King,” alongside a photo of Charles during his recent visit to Australia. It is not believed that the monarch has heard from Prince Harry, which isn’t too surprising after the birthday phone call they had last year that destroyed any ounce of trust Charles had left for his youngest son.
The leaked details of the call ruined any trust the king had with Harry Royal fans may recall that last year when King Charles turned 75, it was reported that Harry reached out to his father via a video call and had his children sing “Happy Birthday” to their grandfather. That information was leaked to the press and the Sussexes were believed to the ones who leaked the conversation, which is something that really upset the king and showed him that Harry can’t be trusted. According to the Daily Mail ‘s royal editor Rebecca English, the move “was considered to have crossed a line” with a source saying: “A deeply private call between the king and his grandchildren and it ends up in a newspaper the next day.
