SYDNEY, Australia — King Charles, the only British monarch who has spent time living in Australia, arrives on Friday for his inaugural visit to an overseas realm as sovereign, his first major foreign trip since being diagnosed with cancer. It is embarrassing that Australians are subjects of the king, Keneally said in an interview, adding that this was no fault of King Charles, who has said a republic is a matter for Australians to decide. “I hope he is OK on this tour because he has that cancer,” Keneally said. Jan Hugo shows off her collection of memorabilia of the British royal family, near the town of Cessnock, Australia, on Tuesday. “When we drank to Australia, we drank to the Queen of Australia, and I felt that didn’t represent who we were,” he said.

Ms. Charles’s first memory of getting braids, at age 4, was painful. As an adult, she visited salons that were cluttered and dirty — it made her dread going. In September 2021, Ms. Charles opened her salon in the Crown Heights neighborhood of Brooklyn, offering a variety of braid styles, including straight back feed-in braids and braided updos. Her reach grew to include braiding hair for the rapper Cardi B and the reality TV star Tanisha Thomas. Ms. Charles was also part of the hair-braiding team for Beyoncé’s “Black Is King” visual album.

Andrew Milligan/WPA Pool/Getty ImagesYou may have noticed King Charles III hasn’t been out and about quite as much over the last six weeks and it’s not for the reason you think. As this is the first general election of Charles III’s reign, there may have been a desire from within the institution to emphasize this. First off, the PM informed King Charles of his decision to call for a general election. That’s because the day after a general election, the monarch invites the leader of the party that won the most seats in the House of Commons to Buckingham Palace.
