King Charles<\/a> had a very busy Thursday, carrying out numerous solo engagements<\/a>, including a garden party attended by HELLO!<\/a>, so on Friday, the monarch made sure to relax.<\/p>\n

The royal was among the attendees at the Royal Windsor Horse Show, where he was joined by the Duke<\/a> and Duchess of Edinburgh<\/a>, alongside their daughter, Lady Louise Windsor<\/a>, who was working her part-time job<\/a> at the event.<\/p>\n

The event was a firm favourite of Charles’ mother, the late Queen Elizabeth II<\/a>, with the former monarch seen attending the show four months before she passed away on 8 September 2022.<\/p>\n

At times, Charles, who wore a grey suit for his outing, looked positively tickled, although at other times, he also had his head in his hands.<\/p>\n

It wasn’t just Charles who appeared to be tickled pink at the event, as Duchess Sophie was also seen with a huge grin on her face.<\/p>\n

The monarch doesn’t always attend the annual event, but he was joined by his youngest brother, Edward, last year, with Charles catching attention in a cool pair of sunglasses<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Her Late Majesty always enjoyed the event<\/p>\n

Early appearances<\/p>\n

Even before she became the monarch, Elizabeth was a frequent attendee at the show. A then Princess Elizabeth can be seen here alongside her sister, Princess Margaret<\/a>, as they attended the first day of the show all the way back in 1947. They were joined by the Duke and Duchess of Beaufort on this occasion.<\/p>\n

Something bugged the late royal<\/p>\n

Not amused<\/p>\n

It wasn’t always a happy occasion for Her Late Majesty when she made her way to the Royal Windsor Horse Show. Back in 2013, she was looking decidedly grumpy at one moment!<\/p>\n

Her Late Majesty was enchanted!<\/p>\n

Braving the weather<\/p>\n

Although it poured down with rain in 2019, the late monarch made sure to attend. It’s clear how much she loved horses, as she gazed lovingly at a white horse as it made its way past her.<\/p>\n

We love this headscarf<\/p>\n

Back to business<\/p>\n

Due to the coronavirus pandemic, the show was called off in 2020, but when it reopened in 2021, Her Late Majesty, made sure to be in attendance. Showing off her love of dogs, Queen Elizabeth wore a headscarf featuring plenty of pooches. And when her own horse, Fools Paradise, competed, she made sure her eyes were locked on them.<\/p>\n

Final appearance<\/p>\n

The event meant so much to the former monarch, that even in her final months, she made sure to attend the service. Although Queen Elizabeth would continue making public appearances, this was one of her final ones. This photo showed the former monarch watching ‘A Gallop Through History’, which formed part of her Platinum Jubilee celebrations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"King Charles had a very busy Thursday, carrying out numerous solo engagements, including a garden party attended by…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":962265,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7708],"tags":[13080,1760,5105,7710,519,448,7796,2417],"class_list":{"0":"post-962264","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-royals","8":"tag-british-royals","9":"tag-king-charles","10":"tag-royal","11":"tag-royal-families","12":"tag-royal-family","13":"tag-royals","14":"tag-royalty","15":"tag-the-queen"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/116580413445927665","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/962264","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=962264"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/962264\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/962265"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=962264"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=962264"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=962264"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
