The King has been "reduced to tears" after receiving cards from well-wishers

Royal Family fans can expect a surprise coming through their letterboxes in the next few months, a leading expert has predicte.

Royal writer and correspondent, Michael Cole, said those who sent King Charles messages of support following his cancer diagnosis should expect a reply from the Monarch.

He told GB News: “The King has received around 7000 messages and they will all get a reply if they sent a card with an address on it.

“I think Buckingham Palace has certainly upped the act here. The new people who are handling the public relations for His Majesty can be congratulated. They are being more open, candid and there's more frankness about what's going on. That's all to be welcomed.

“I'm sure he will have some help dealing with the cards. I think he's been moved, he said he was moved to tears - whether they were tears of laughter, or tears of concern. Big boys don't cry, but the King probably makes his own rules and anybody is entitled to have a few tears when they're confronted with intimations of immortality.”

Mr Cole added: “I think the King has actually been moved by the outpouring of concern for him. Perhaps he suddenly realised that people do really like him. He’s quite a man. He's always tried to do the right thing. He started off very well as King last year with an excellent first year.”
