King Charles has confessed one of his biggest regrets in life. A friend of the King, who celebrated his 78th birthday yesterday, has revealed that there's one thing he always wanted to do, but he never got the chance.

The king had a childhood dream that was never fulfilled, reports the Sunday Times. Charles and his younger sister Anne, it can be revealed, always wanted to visit Butlin’s holiday camps when they were children. But, the late Queen Elizabeth II, their mother, always said no.

A friend of the King’s told the Sunday Times: "One of the King’s funniest stories that he’s told a few times and it’s whenever you get him on to his list of regrets of things he hasn’t done is that he’s never been to Butlin’s, and that he and Princess Anne never went as children."

They added: "He asked the Queen and Prince Philip many times if he and Anne could go on holiday to Butlin’s as children, and he tells how the Queen would always say: ‘I don’t quite think we will be able to manage that.’"

The King reportedly laughed at how dissapointed him and his sister were at the news that they would be unable to go. The Royal Family usually take their holidays at Sandringham, in Norfolk, or Balmoral, in Scotland, where they own residences.

A Butlin's spokesperson said: "We’d like to wish His Majesty a very happy birthday and, as we celebrate our landmark 90th year, help him make a childhood wish come true. His late mother visited Butlin’s in 1963, and we’d be delighted to invite The King and his family to visit one of our resorts."
