It was the moment royal fans had been waiting for - the appearance of the Royal Family standing proudly on the Buckingham Palace balcony with the newly crowned King Charles and Queen Camilla.
Charles and Camilla in lavish robes and wearing their crowns returned to the palace from Westminster Abbey with a wave the cheers of the crowds, who filled The Mall after braving downpours to see a colourful ceremonial military procession not seen for 70 years.
The Prince and Princess of Wales and their children Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis joined the monarch, as did the pages of honour and other royals – and then wellwishers were treated to an encore with just the King and Queen.
