      Per an announcement made by the Buckingham Palace on Wednesday, King Charles III will make an opening speech at the COP28 climate summit in Dubai.
      This year, the King will attend “at the invitation” of UAE President Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan and “at the request” of the U.K. government, Buckingham Palace said.
      Alongside regional leaders, the UK monarch will deliver the opening address of the World Climate Action Summit at Expo City Dubai and hold meetings thereafter.
      Set to take place from November 30 to December 12, 2023, the summit will also have a reception to launch the inaugural COP28 Business and Philanthropy Climate Forum. The overarching focus of the summit will be around the planet’s climate crisis through observer organisations like charities and government representatives who will come together.
      Making this the first time for King Charles III to attend a COP summit, however, the Royal has visited the UAE on several occasions in the past.
      Previous visits to Dubai

      This will be the British Monach’s first visit since becoming King, previously known as Prince Charles, he visited the UAE in 1999, 2007, 2014 and 2016.
      During his most recent trip in 2016, the then Duchess of Cornwall, Camilla accompanied the Royal on a tour of the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque alongside Sheikha Lubna Al Qasimi, who was known as the then Minister of State for Tolerance.
      The trip also included a visit of the Royals to the Dubai International Humanitarian City, where Prince Charles met aid workers and also complimented the UAE’s generosity.

      The Stranger Things actor announced this happy new via Instagram. Of course, with Taylor Swift lyrics in the caption. Millie is all set to tie the knot with her long-time beau Jake Bongiovi, who she has been dating for almost two and a half years.
      The lines in her caption from the song ‘Lover‘ also confirmed the timeline of her relationship. “I’ve loved you three summers now, honey, I want ’em all,”
      The 19-years-old actor has been very public about her romance with legendary singer Jon Bon Jovi’s son. Engagement speculations first sparked when Millie posted a picture of the back of her head in a car — showing only part of her hand, enough for fans to spot a rock on her finger.

      Jake also made this new public on his social media, but in a more subtle way. With his arms around Millie and their backs facing the camera, the 20-years-old actor-producer captioned his adroable post with ‘forever’.

      While the details of the nuptials are yet to come, Millie did share her shimmering, oval-shaped  diamond ring with her excited fans. Like a true Gen-Z couple, they met on Instagram, became friends and the rest as they say is history.
      Here’s wishing the happy couple congratulations!

      The royal family bids a final farewell to Queen Elizabeth II with poignant photo

      Yesterday, the world bid its final farewell to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, the longest-ever reigning monarch of the United Kingdom.
      A few hours after the ceremony took place, the Royal Family shared an unseen image in loving memory of Her Majesty The Queen, who lived from 1926 to 2022.
      Taken at Balmoral Castle in 1971, deemed to be one of her favourite places in the UK, the Queen is seen amidst plush fauna surrounding on the Scottish estate with an elegant scarf wrapped around her head.  The photo was a poignant one, given the Queen passed away at Balmoral.
      The image was shared with the one of Shakespeare’s most popular quotes from Hamlet: “May flights of Angels sing thee to thy rest.”

      ‘May flights of Angels sing thee to thy rest.’
      In loving memory of Her Majesty The Queen.

      These were some of the precious words which King Charles III used in his first televised speech as monarch, paying tribute to his late mother.
      This previously unpublished photo pays a tribute to the Queen and her years of dedication to the country. She made a lifelong commitment to serving the country on her 21st birthday and effortlessly carried out her duties as British monarch.
      Laid to rest on September 19, 2022, a total of 2,000 guests, including 500 dignitaries, foreign royals and leaders and members of the Royal Family were in attendance at the state funeral service at Westminster Abbey.
      The Queen has been buried at Windsor Castle alongside her late husband Prince Philip, after an intimate ceremony with the Royal Family members.

      The former Prince of Wales, who is now king, succeeds his late mother as monarch. The late Queen laid out her hopes for the future when she marked her Platinum Jubilee.
      UAE leaders offered their condolences on the demise of the British monarch. Leaders from across the world also extended their condolences and paid their respects to the Queen.
      His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai offered his heartfelt condolences to the British royal family minutes after the news was shared by The Royal Family on Twitter.
