On Friday, King Charles III returned to Buckingham Palace amid crowds of well-wishers. The new King addressed the nation for the first time on Friday to officially begin his reign.
At the age of 96, Queen Elizabeth II passed away peacefully at Balmoral Castle on Thursday. The nation of Britain has started a time of royal mourning, with tributes to the Queen being paid in Parliament.
In his first nation address, King Charles III said, “Queen Elizabeth’s was a life well lived, she is mourned deeply. I promise the life long service in all the countries. There’s a deep sense of gratitude where my mother has served.”
“The affection, admiration, became a hallmark of her realm. She combined these qualities. I pay tribute to my mother’s memories. I know her death brings sadness. I share that sense with you all,” he continued.
The UK King added, “As the queen herself did her service with dedication, I also pledge my dedication to the constitution. I shall endevour to serve you with loyalty and love. I solemnly pledge to uphold the constitutional principles at the heart of our nation.”
