Stepping out for a spring royal custom at the Chelsea Flower Show, another prominent gathering was taking place on the opposite side of the ocean, this one involving their offspring.
On May 19, the King and Queen Camilla enjoyed a celebratory visit to the Royal Horticultural Society’s Chelsea Flower Show in London. They explored colorful gardens and paid tribute to their canine companions by visiting the special RHS and BBC Radio 2 dog garden. This dedicated space included plaques bearing the names of their treasured pets, such as Camilla’s departed dog Beth and her newest addition, Moley.
One standout feature of the exhibition was a newly unveiled flower named after Catherine Middleton: “Catherine’s Rose.” This rose boasts coral-pink petals and exudes scents reminiscent of Turkish Delight and mango. It was developed to recognize the Princess of Wales’ efforts in promoting nature’s therapeutic benefits, with funds from sales benefiting The Royal Marsden Cancer Charity — an organization that provided her previous cancer treatments.
At the floral exhibition, Beckham also made an appearance, meeting with the King during his visit. They shared a heartwarming encounter which gained additional significance due to significant events happening far off in distant regions.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were recently seen at a private dinner with Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz.
In Montecito, California, the event occurred at the residence of Paramount CEO Brian Robbins and his spouse Tracy Robbins — who are good friends with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex — and this gathering was not organized by Harry and Meghan themselves.
“A source informs newsinpo.space that both Brooklyn and Nicola received their invitations before David’s many international birthday celebrations; thus, the scheduling overlap is merely coincidental,” they explain. “Despite being a small event with only a few attendees, notable figures such as VIPs and prominent film industry leaders were also present. Both Brooklyn and Nicola thoroughly enjoyed themselves and remarked specifically about how warm, considerate, and hospitable Harry and Meghan were.”
This meal takes place against a backdrop of continuing tensions within both families. Neither Brooklyn nor Nicola attended David Beckham’s 50th birthday party last month, even though they received invitations. “Their bond isn’t irreparably damaged,” said an inside source. “They still care deeply about each other and support one another. However, they feel wounded and let down because he seems completely detached from their lives.”
In an open conversation with the BBC on May 2, Prince Harry disclosed that King Charles refuses to talk to him and confessed that he doesn’t know how much time his father has left due to ongoing cancer treatments. Despite this, Harry still holds out hope for mending their relationship: “I would like to reconcile with my family. It’s not worth fighting anymore.” Even so, relations between Prince Harry and King Charles continue to be strained.
Charles’ excursion on Monday celebrated the 111-year-old gardening festivity, a beloved event of his late mother’s.

It serves as an opening act for the spring and early summer season, featuring events such as the Royal Ascot horse races and garden parties at Buckingham Palace. This year, over 400 horticulture displays are anticipated, attracting approximately 145,000 visitors throughout the week.
The canine garden honors the significant role dogs play in numerous family dynamics, offering patches of grass where they can frolic and a big tree to provide cool shade. This space includes pathways constructed from brick tiles adorned with the monikers of dogs owned by BBC Radio 2 hosts and Royal Horticultural Society representatives—such as television horticulturist Monty Don’s pet Ned, as well as Camilla’s rescued Jack Russell Terriers named Bluebell and Beth, who passed away recently. Also etched into these bricks are entries for Camilla’s newest addition, Moley, alongside King Charles’ companion, Snuff.
During the weekend, Buckingham Palace unveiled a fresh portrait featuring Camilla alongside her dog Moley, an animal rescued from Battersea Dogs & Cats Home. Following the conclusion of the weeklong floral exhibition, the garden will continue to thrive at the shelter located just across the river from Chelsea.
Another garden toured by the royal pair, with Charles’ sibling at their side.

Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh,
And the Duchess of Gloucester were featured in “The King’s Trust Garden: Cultivating Growth.”
The organization, previously called the Prince’s Trust since it was established by Charles during his time as the Prince of Wales in 1976, has assisted over one million youths since its inception.
The garden showcases how seeds can adapt and thrive even in challenging conditions—reflecting the mission of the Trust, established by Charles in 1976 to assist underprivileged youth in gaining access to business and employment opportunities, much like what newsinpo.spacethrive aims to achieve for those they support.
In the garden, grass and perennial plants blend with small shrubs, forming an “intimate, secluded area,” according to the palace. This green space will continue its existence at Uxbridge College in West London, serving as a hub for maintenance and development activities carried out by participants of The King’s Trust programs, additional college students, and members of the nearby neighborhood.
During their visit, the royal family explored the British Rainforest Garden created by Zoe Claymore for The Wildlife Trusts. As patron of The Wildlife Trusts, His Majesty was particularly interested in this garden, conceived to embody the essence of the lush, damp forests that were widespread across Britain’s western regions in ancient times. With an ongoing commitment to reintroduce rainforests within the British Isles, the garden serves as a vivid illustration of this vital ecosystem, which currently occupies roughly just 1% of the country’s territory.

A part of the exhibition featured the London SquareChelsea Pensioners’ Garden, conceptualized by Dave Green and planned to be located at the Royal Hospital Chelsea, which houses the renowned Chelsea Pensioners. This hospital grounds also host the yearly floral event.
Dave Green aims to capture the 300-year legacy of “a haven for soldiers shattered by age and warfare,” as stated in a release.
The main source of inspiration for the garden comes from the act of people coming together, as seen when Pensioners welcome their guests. The boundaries feature native hedgerows along with a brick wall that complements the architectural style of the Royal Hospital Chelsea.
