Prince Charles Dances Joyously with Jewish Community Amid Netflix Scandal

seemed to have put the heat of the sensational claims from the Netflix documentary series about his son and daughter-in-law aside as he joined in the traditional dancing during a visit to a Jewish community on Friday afternoon.

The King, 74, visited the Jewish community centre in North London, JW3, which welcomes all faiths.

He was given a rock star's welcome as the Jewish community prepares to celebrate Shanukkah on Sunday.

The Festival of Lights begins on Sunday evening at sundown at JW3, which holds an annual reception hosted for Holocaust survivors.

At the party, the King danced the horror to the tune of various Jewish songs as he seemed to shrug off the claims that the Sussexes have made about the Royal Family.

He was captured dancing joyously with members of the Jewish community as he held the hands of two pensioners and danced in a circle to loud claps and cheers.

While at the centre, he also met with students who were wrapping presents and volunteers preparing and packing meals to be distributed through the centre's food bank programme.

JW3's chief executive, Raymond Simonson, who vouched that Charles had arrived to the event with a car boot full of rice and tin tuna to put into the donation packs, commented, “Most people in the British Jewish community come from refugee stock and the fact of being accepted and meeting the monarch, it's an endorsement of the community's place in British society.”

Charles also looked delighted when a crowd gathered to chant his name outside the centre.

The King waved furiously and grinned at the well-wishers.

Elsewhere during the visit, Charles was presented with a menorah, unveiled a commemorative plaque and checked out the Bike Project, a social action initiative that refurbishes and donates bicycles to refugees and asylum seekers in London as a means of efficient, affordable travel.

King Charles has long had a deep interest in interfaith relations, which is expected to be reflected at his May 2023 coronation.

Royal historian Robert Lacey previously told People magazine that Charles' crowning ceremony will likely have an interfaith quality to it next year.

According to reports, the monarch is said to have vowed never to watch the Netflix series, which Harry and Meghan have used to brutally attack him, William and Catherine.

The final episodes of the explosive documentary aired on Netflix on Thursday, with heavy claims about the royal family, especially Charles and .

Harry recounted a time where, after he announced that himself and wife Meghan would be stepping down from royal duties, he was brought into council with his family at Sandringham, known as the Sandringham Summit.

Though Harry thought it would be an amicable discussion, he shared it was, “…terrifying to have my brother scream and shout at me and my father say things that weren't true and my grandmother sit there quietly and take it all in.

It was really hard,” he said in the series.

Charles and William have yet to respond to the claims, instead showing a united front at the Princess of Wales' second annual Christmas Carol concert, during which William called for togetherness during his address at the event.

“‘At Christmas I am always struck by how the spirit of togetherness lies also at the heart of the Christmas story,' he told the audience at Westminster Abbey, quoting II's 2012 Christmas speech.

Despite the scandal, His Majesty was not deterred from joining in the pre-Shanukkah celebrations with the Jewish community.

He danced with them, shared their joy, and even contributed to the donation packs.

The Jewish community welcomed him with open arms, and his presence there was seen as an endorsement of their place in British society.
