Kate Garraway 'feels for' King Charles amid warring sons on Queen's anniversary
Kate Garraway has revealed that she 'truly feels for' King Charles on the first anniversary of Queen Elizabeth's passing.
On September 8, 2022, the world came to a stand-still when it was announced that the Queen had died at the age of 96. Her reign of over 70 years is the longest of any British monarch and the longest verified reign of any female head of state in history.
Following her death at Balmoral, King Charles - formerly known as Prince Charles - took over the reign amid much family turmoil including his warring sons, Prince William and Prince Harry.
Reflecting on the 12 months gone by on Good Morning Britain on Friday, hosts Kate Garraway and Ben Shephard weighed in on King Charles' reign, with Kate admitting that she 'feels for' the King due to William and Harry's crumbling relationship.
