King Charles and Camilla postpone state go to to Vatican as Pope recovers from sickness
The King and Queen’s planned visit to the Vatican next month has been postponed due to medical advice issued to the Pope, Buckingham Palace said.
In a statement the palace said: “The King and Queen’s state visit to The Holy See has been postponed by mutual agreement, as medical advice has now suggested that Pope Francis would benefit from an extended period of rest and recuperation.
“Their Majesties send The Pope their best wishes for his convalescence and look forward to visiting him in The Holy See, once he has recovered.”
