King Charles and Pope Francis had a private meeting at the Vatican's Casa Santa Marta, marking the King's 20th wedding anniversary with Queen Camilla. The meeting took place during the King's four-day State Visit to Italy, following his public meet-up with the Pope being postponed over health concerns. The two leaders reportedly wished each other well, sharing their best wishes and kind remarks about the King's milestone anniversary.

King Charles and Queen Camilla arrived in Rome for a four-day state visit to Italy, where they were welcomed with a red carpet ceremony at Ciampino Airport. Despite ongoing cancer treatment that saw him hospitalized just 12 days ago, Charles insisted on making the trip. The royal couple will attend 19 engagements between today and Thursday, with some Vatican events removed from the itinerary due to Pope Francis's recuperation after treating double pneumonia. They are staying at Villa Wolkonsky, home of the British ambassador to Italy, which features beautiful grounds crossed by a Neronian aqueduct dating back to the 1st Century AD.

King Charles and Queen Camilla celebrated their 20th wedding anniversary with a special series of portraits taken at Villa Wolkonsky, Rome, during their four-day trip to Italy. The photos show the couple surrounded by Mediterranean scenery, with Camilla wearing a white and beige coat dress and Charles in a pinstripe suit.
