Speaking in both Italian and English, Charles eulogised Italy as a place 'very dear to my heart' AFP Britain's King Charles III told Italy's parliament Wednesday that peace is "never to be taken for granted" before ending a visit to Rome with a surprise visit to a convalescing Pope Francis. King Charles and Queen Camilla met with 88-year-old Francis, who has been recuperating from pneumonia at the Vatican after being released last month from hospital, on their 20th wedding anniversary -- a day packed with visits, handshakes, and a historic address to parliament. "Their majesties were delighted the Pope was well enough to host them -- and to have had the opportunity to share their best wishes in person," said a Buckingham Palace statement.
