Britain’s King Charles III, head of the Church of England, and Queen Camilla will make a historic state visit to the Vatican next week to meet Pope Leo XIV for the first time.
The trip will come around six months after the royal couple met Leo’s predecessor, Pope Francis, in a private visit shortly before his death.
During the visit next Wednesday and Thursday, Charles and Camilla will join Leo in celebrations to mark the current special jubilee year, held every 25 years.
