Video. King Charles hosts the Military Wives Choirs after year of challenges

The performance marked a festive return to normalcy after a challenging year for the royal family.

Both King Charles and his daughter-in-law Kate, Princess of Wales, faced cancer diagnoses earlier this year, forcing them to step back temporarily from public life. Charles, now in good health, resumed duties, including hosting Qatari royals last week.

The event highlighted the monarchy’s enduring bond with the military, with Charles, a former serviceman, maintaining strong support for armed forces charities.
