The King's last night as a Prince as Alan Titchmarsh details evening in Ayrshire before Queen's death

In the opulent Great Steward of Scotland Dining Room at Dumfries House, the Prince of Wales hosted a black-tie dinner and reception with Americans he'd encouraged to turn around the fortunes of a run-down part of Jamaica.

George W. Bush's daughter, Jenna Bush-Hager, TV gardener Alan Titchmarsh and Dame Sue Bruce, chairman of the board of trustees of The Prince's Foundation, were among the guests at the Ayrshire Royal estate last Wednesday evening with The Duchess of Cornwall not able to make the gathering after her flight from Heathrow was delayed.

Less than 24 hours after this dinner, Charles would become King after the Queen's passing on Thursday afternoon.
