King Charles and Queen Camilla celebrate 20th wedding anniversary with new photos

Royal fans around the world have been quick to extend their congratulations to King Charles and Queen Camilla as they mark a significant milestone—20 years of marriage.

To celebrate the occasion, the royal couple shared three official photographs to social media, giving fans a glimpse into this joyous moment.

Currently on a four-day state visit to Rome, Charles and Camilla were photographed with wide smiles at Villa Wolkonsky, the official residence of Edward Llewellyn, the UK’s ambassador to Italy and San Marino.

In one of the images, the couple stands in the villa’s beautiful grounds, with Camilla wearing a stylish white and beige coat by Anna Valentine. The other images feature the pair near the iconic Neronian arches, remnants of the Aqua Claudia, a Roman aqueduct that once supplied the city of Rome with water.

Camilla added a touch of history to her ensemble, wearing the Fabergé lily of the valley brooch—a gift from Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev to the late Queen Mother during his 1956 official visit to the UK.

“As we begin our first visit to Italy as King and Queen, we are so looking forward to celebrating our twentieth wedding anniversary in such a special place – and with such wonderful people! A presto, Roma e Ravenna!” the royal couple wrote alongside the images.

Fans were quick to offer heartfelt messages to the pair, with many congratulating the couple on reaching such a major milestone.

“Wishing you happy wedding anniversary, Your Majesties! That is a big milestone for you two, and I wish you to spend many more years together in love and happiness,” one wrote.

“Lovely. Happy anniversary.”

“The King and Queen are radiant. That’s what love looks like,” commented another.

“Happy wedding anniversary ❤️❤️❤️ Our wonderful King and Queen.”

To cap off their anniversary celebrations, King Charles and Queen Camilla will attend a state banquet in Rome as guests of honour.

King Charles’ wedding anniversary celebrations will come as a welcomed reprieve for the Monarch after he was recently hospitalised after experiencing temporary side effects from his ongoing cancer treatment.

Buckingham Palace shared the health update, revealing that the King cancelled a planned trip to Birmingham on Friday, March 28 to recover.

“Following scheduled and ongoing medical treatment for cancer this morning, the King experienced temporary side effects that required a short period of observation in hospital,” Buckingham Palace said in a statement.

“His Majesty’s afternoon engagements were therefore postponed.”

After his brief stay in the hospital, King Charles returned to Clarence House to rest.
