  "summary": "Prince William will represent King Charles III at the funeral of Norway’s late King Harald on September 9, according to Buckingham Palace. This decision follows a similar gesture where William attended Pope Francis’s funeral last year on behalf of the King. Prince Charles, who is currently undergoing treatment for cancer, released a statement expressing his grief over the loss of his \"dear cousin\" King Harald, noting that the two men were second cousins once removed. Princess Anne, Charles’s sister, will also attend the funeral in a personal capacity as the godmother of the new King Haakon VIII.",
