“In the official portraits, The King wears The Sovereign’s Badge of the Order of Australia, while The Queen wears the Wattle Brooch which was gifted to Her late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II during her visit to Australia in 1954,” the Australian government said in a statement. Buckingham Palace said Charles and Camilla would attend the Commonwealth heads of government meeting in Samoa, which is scheduled for 21-25 October.
“The king’s doctors have advised that such an extended programme should be avoided at this time, to prioritise His Majesty’s continued recovery,” a spokesperson for Buckingham Palace said.
