King Charles and Queen Camilla marked Maundy Thursday on April 2, carrying on a royal tradition that dates all the way back to the 13th century. British monarchs have been distributing special coins called Maundy Money to senior citizens on the Thursday before Easter for hundreds of years, and in 2026, Their Majesties traveled to St Aspah, Wales for the event. Body language expert Darren Stanton notes that The King looked “more confident” than ever as he attended the church service, and that’s partially down to Queen Camilla.
The King and Queen were full of smiles as they greeted members of the public gathered outside St Asaph cathedral, and Stanton—speaking on behalf of Betfair Casino—says that Camilla is King Charles’s “rock.”
