King Charles Is Out of the Hospital & This Royal Was the First to Visit (It’s Not Who You Would Expect!)

It makes sense—the king and his sister, who are closer in age in comparison with their younger siblings, Princes Andrew and Edward—have shared a unique bond since their youth. In fact, earlier this week they attended a rare joint event at St. James’s Palace on behalf of the Butler Trust, which Anne is patron of. The pair could be seen laughing and chatting together throughout the night.

As for where Charles is off to? The monarch is said to be on his way from London to his Highgrove estate in Gloucestershire for a bit of R&R as he focuses on his health (and where we’re sure his other family members will be checking in on him soon). It makes sense, given his Friday full of engagements was put on hold as a precautionary measure. A statement from Buckingham Palace read: “His Majesty would like to send his apologies to all those who may be inconvenienced or disappointed as a result,” nodding to the change in plans.

Bottom line: We love that Anne—who is regularly deemed the hardest-working royal—made time for her big bro.
