The King was last seen publicly with Queen Camilla at an Easter Sunday service at Windsor Castle, where the monarch briefly met with gathered crowds.

While the King is set to undertake a number of external engagements over the coming weeks, the palace has warned "it will not be a full summer programme" for His Majesty.

Appearances at his birthday parade, known as Trooping the Colour, along with Buckingham Palace garden parties and Royal Ascot will all be undertaken on a case-by-case basis.

"Planning continues for ways in which Their Majesties may attend such Summer and Autumn engagements, though nothing can be confirmed or guaranteed at this stage," the palace spokesperson said.

"All future plans remain subject to doctors' advice nearer the time."

They say forthcoming engagements will be adapted where necessary to minimise any risks to the monarch's continued recovery.
