King Charles' office shared a new message after Queen Camilla avoided making comments on Epstein victims, sparking questions about her efforts for women's rights.
On February 5, Buckingham Palace released an official photo from a high-profile meeting between the monarch and spiritual leader Rahim Al-Hussaini, who became the Aga Khan V last year.
The statement alongside the picture reads, "The King hosted a private dinner for His Highness the Aga Khan at Windsor Castle last night, to mark the first anniversary of His Highness’s Accession."
It is important to note here that the royal family issued an update on the King's meeting after Camilla maintained silence on Epstein victims.
For the unversed, the Queen arrived at Christ Church Primary School in Camden to officially open the inaugural Coronation Library on January 4.
She was asked by a reporter, "Will the Royal Family have the Epstein investigation?" "Do you have a message for Epstein’s victims, your Majesty?"
However, King Charles' wife seemingly followed the royal rule, "never complain, never explain." But, fans, who admired the Queen for her efforts in highlighting women's rights, called it a U-turn.
