Three members of the Royal Family might be absent from Trooping the Colour, after the Princess of Wales revealed she would be attending.
The event, which celebrates the King’s official birthday, is set to take place in London on Saturday (June 15), and the family is expected to grace Buckingham Palace’s iconic balcony.
Speculation has been rife among Royal experts about whether Kate will be present as she continues her recovery from cancer treatment. However today (June 14), Kate revealed she would be in attendance.

Speaking on HELLO’s Right Royal podcast, ITV’s Lizzie Robinson revealed that the attendance of Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis could be up in the air, reports the Daily Record.
She explained: “I think with the children as well, things are often not confirmed in advance, they’re all 10 and under so they take decisions on the children much closer to the time.
“So I think they will put them first, they will do what is best for the children. That is their absolute priority in absolutely everything the Waleses do.”
While the presence of some royals remains uncertain, the King has already confirmed he will attend Trooping the Colour despite his ongoing cancer treatment.
This year, Queen Camilla will accompany him, but unlike the previous year, they will participate in the ceremony in a carriage instead of on horseback.
The Prince and Princess of Wales, their children, Princess Anne, her husband Vice Admiral Sir Timothy Laurence, Prince Edward and Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh were all present at last year’s Trooping the Colour.
Meanwhile, the Duke of Kent and the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester were seen standing to one side of the Buckingham Palace balcony.
