It's one of the best-loved events in the royal calendar with its all-important balcony moment seen as the pinnacle of the day. And according to reports, King Charles is facing a big decision on exactly who will be on the Buckingham Palace balcony at the conclusion of this year's Trooping the Colour event . The annual King's birthday parade is set to take place in just over two weeks and always comes to an end with members of the Royal Family on the palace balcony for the RAF flypast, which features the mesmerising Red Arrows.
In the reign of the late Queen, nearly all members of the family, including extended relatives, would all pack onto the balcony for the exciting moment. But at the last Trooping the Colour of her reign and other balcony appearances since Charles ascended to the throne, only those who are working royals have been allowed to appear.

However, recently, the royal cousins were called on to support Prince William when he hosted a palace garden party for his father - a nd went around chatting to the assembled guests. And according to The Telegraph , this poses a question for the King ahead of the much-anticipate.
