CWN Editor's Note: King Charles and Queen Camilla will meet with Pope Francis at the Vatican in a private audience on April 8, Buckingham Palace has announced.

The official announcement of the audience—which will come during a state visit by the British royal couple to Italy—indicates that the Vatican has confirmed the date, with the expectation that Pope Francis will have recovered from double pneumonia and resumed his normal activities by early next month.

During his visit to the Vatican, King Charles will “attend a Service in the Sistine Chapel, focused on the theme of care for creation,” Buckingham Palace said.
