The couple reportedly wants to show their relationship is one which reflects that of many people in modern life, of which “a blended family is a central element.”

In another break with tradition, Charles and Camilla are due to meet with the Prince and Princess of Wales to discuss a formal role in the ceremony for their nine-year-old son Prince George, who is second in line to the throne behind his father Prince William.

A source said, “Her grandchildren’s absence from the public spotlight to date has always been governed by their parents. Camilla loves spending time with those children and has been quite relaxed about their role, but she has always been careful not to thrust them into the limelight and mindful of respecting their parents’ wishes on that.”

“The King has always been so close to his step-grand-children, and the queen has told me how he would read Harry Potter to them and do impersonations of the different characters.”
