Cllr Diane King, who represents Pendyffryn Ward on Rhyl Town Council, is the new mayor of Rhyl. Only a handful of guests were allowed to join cllr King in person for the official ceremony, with the majority of the council watching on via Zoom. Cllr King is a former Llandrillo College lecturer. She was due to take over from cllr Ellie Chard in May 2020. However, the onset of the pandemic made it impossible for the council to arrange a formal ceremony under the lockdown regulations. Instead, cllr Chard stayed in office for a second year.
