Royal family live updates: New ‘Catherine’s Rose’ variety grown for Kate Middleton — with proceeds going to a very personal charity

New York Post Entertainment has all the latest news on the British royal family, from Kate Middleton and Prince William to King Charles and Queen Camilla, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, plus more royals around the world.
This king won’t “do the conga” anytime soon!
King Charles delivered a speech Thursday night for VE Day, 80 years since his grandfather, King George VI, did the same on the day that marked the end of WWII in Europe.
“The Allied victory being celebrated then, as now, was a result of unity between nations, races, religions and ideologies, fighting back against an existential threat to humanity,” Charles said.
We must also remember those who were still fighting, still living with conflict and starvation on the other side of the world.”
Charles referenced his late mother, Queen Elizabeth II’s journal from that time. She “described in her diary how she mingled anonymously in the crowds across central London,” the king said. “Conga-ed into House. Sang till 2 a.m. Bed at 3 a.m.!
“I do hope your celebrations tonight are almost as joyful, although I rather doubt I shall have the energy to sing until 2 a.m., let alone for that matter to lead you all in a giant conga from here back to Buckingham Palace!” the royal joked, which was met with laughter from the audience.
The king also acknowledged the significance of remembering the war.
“As the number of those who lived through the Second World War so sadly dwindles, the more it becomes our duty to carry their stories forward, to ensure their experiences are never to be forgotten,” he said.
“For as my grandfather put it: ‘We shall have failed, and the blood of our dearest will have flowed in vain, if the victory which they died to win does not lead to a lasting peace, founded on justice and established in good will.'”
