King Charles: Portrait placed in St Columb’s Cathedral

“I think there has been a stigma around the monarch and the Royal Family and I think in recent times people have seen past that,” he said.

He said he understood not everyone supported the monarchy.

“But I think respect was shown by our elected members in our city council to vote to accept this,” he added.

The King’s representative said he was not disappointed about the move to hang the portrait in the cathedral rather than the Guildhall.

“It’s our town hall but I respect people’s opinions on this and I respect that this is the place that was unanimously thought of by the elected members and in fairness a lot of our community thought that this was a very fitting place,” Mr Crowe said.

The portrait is traditional, with the King dressed in an Admiral of the Fleet uniform with medals and honours on display.
