King Charles is set to commemorate his 77th birthday with a special visit to Wales.

On Friday, November 14, 2025, the King will spend his birthday in the company of Queen Camilla in South Wales. The celebration includes a reception at Cyfarthfa Castle near Merthyr Tydfil, attended by notable figures such as “Gavin and Stacey” actress Ruth Jones, fashion expert Julien Macdonald, and members from the Laura Ashley Foundation.

It comes after it was revealed King Charles wrote to Ozzy Osbourne’s family after his death.

The Black Sabbath rocker passed away in July at the age of 76 and his wife Sharon took comfort in the kind message she and the Paranoid hitmaker’s children received from the “amazing” and caring monarch.

Speaking on the Osbournes podcast, the couple’s son Jack Osbourne said: “We got a lovely letter from the king.”

Sharon added: “Our King is an amazing person. He is an amazing person, not just because he wrote to us when Ozzy passed, but if he did it for us, know he does it for many, many, many people.

“Here’s a man that does know what’s going on in the street with people. Not just politics, not just you know, here’s a man that cares about the environment, animals,” she added.

“He cares about many, many, many things.”

The 73-year-old matriarch revealed Charles had previously got in touch with the family in 2003, when he was still Prince of Wales, after Ozzy was seriously injured in a quad bike accident.

She said: “He’s got a good heart. He didn’t have to do certain things that he’s done for Ozzy.

“He is a good, caring man with a good heart. “We respect him, we respect his family.

“And he, again, took the time out of his day to write us, have it hand-delivered to us, a note from the King for Ozzy’s passing with his condolences, and that says so much.”
