Just over a week on since over 2,000 people watched the King coronated in Westminster Abbey, King Charles III showed he’s nothing if not a modern monarch, driving himself to church in Norfolk this morning.
Charles was spotted behind the wheel, offering a cheery wave to well-wishers as he drove to St Mary Magdalene Church in Sandringham, Norfolk.
Dressed in a smart grey suit, the King looked on jovial form as he navigated the Norfolk roads in a motorcade – with dozens of well-wishers lining the streets to catch a glimpse of him.
After the service, the King was seen in the same royal car, being driven back to Sandringham by a close protection officer.
