Long-lost letter written by King Charles discovered by couple clearing out home

A sweet letter written by a young King Charles to his grandmother has been auctioned off after it was discovered by a stunned couple in their own home.

Correspondence from the future monarch to The Queen Mother, who was then 54, was unearthed in a dusty loft by a stunned couple and was dated March 15, 1955 - when Charles was just six-years-old.

It read: "Dear Granny, I am sorry that you are ill. I hope you will be better soon." The flip side of the page reads: "Lots of love from Charles."
