In his poignant speech to the nation, King Charles emotionally paid tribute to his "darling mama”. In a historic televised address to the nation, he thanked the Queen for her service in his first public broadcast as monarch. In his speech he touched upon his 'feelings of sorrow’ before paying tribute to Harry and Meghan, and announced a new title for Prince William and Kate Middleton.
Eagle-eyed fans also noticed how items surrounding him on the polished antique table - which was previously owned by Prince Philip for being shipped down for the occasion, paid tribute to Her Majesty. From a vase decorated with corgis to sprigs of rosemary for remembrance – the King made sure his mother's presence was felt.
