The couple will enjoy a break of up to two days before they travel to Samoa for three days, where they will incorporate a visit to the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting.“Naturally, it will be a bitter disappointment on both sides to not have the opportunity for the King and Queen to visit New Zealand, but of course all are aware of the King’s ongoing health and the need for him to pace himself,” an insider told the Mirror.
It is there the King will meet families and residents impacted by a devastating flooding event which swept through far north Australia in the rouse of Cyclone Jasper in January. “WA is prepared to roll out the red carpet for the pair, and show them what makes our state so special," he told The Sunday Times earlier this year.
