Constantine II of Greece, a second cousin of King Charles III, died in January last year aged 82.
Charles and Constantine enjoyed a close relationship, with the British royal naming his first son William as godfather.
After a military coup in 1967, Constantine and his family fled to Rome, and the junta appointed a regent in his place.
