The King and Queen have led the Royal Family in a special Service of Thanksgiving held at Westminster Abbey.

King Charles and Queen Camilla were joined by senior royals today as they attended a Service of Thanksgiving to commemorate the 80th anniversary of Victory in Europe (VE) Day.

Alongside Their Majesties were the Prince and Princess of Wales, the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh, Princess Anne and Vice Admiral Sir Timothy Laurence, all of whom came to pay tribute.

Also in attendance were the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester and the Duke of Kent. Now 89, the Duke is the oldest male member of the Royal Family and has devoted his life to public duty. He remains an active participant in royal events, frequently appearing alongside other members of the Firm.

What’s striking, however, is how modest and low-profile his personal life is. He enjoys a quiet life with his wife, who has not taken part in a public royal engagement in over a decade.
