During her appearance on the Palace balcony, Camilla reportedly seemed least interested in playing a game with Prince William and Kate Middleton\u2019s three children.

She revealed that William was seen asking his eldest son, \u201cWhat is this, George?\u201d The hesitant Prince replies, \u201cErrr that&#8217;s erm a\u2026 [he is looking and thinking] I can&#8217;t see it yet.\u201d Prince George, who was still thinking about which aircraft it might be, turned to William and asked, \u201cWhen should they start, Papa?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Article continues below advertisement<\/p>\n<p>George and William then decided to involve Camilla in their fun game. After George correctly pointed out the aircraft as an Atlas, William leaned towards Camilla and let her know which plane was flying. He added, \u201cThat&#8217;s the Poseidon, they are the air fighters.\u201d Camilla, who seemed a bit aloof, happened to guess the wrong answer to one of the questions. It led William to bluntly respond with, \u201cIt&#8217;s the wrong answer.\u201d An off-guard Camilla then said to him, \u201cAre we playing this still? I need to try harder.\u201d The Prince responded with, \u201cThat&#8217;s a UKMFTS, that&#8217;s similar to the Lancaster, I think.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Article continues below advertisement<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" align=\"center\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">A Day to remember as The King and Queen, Prince and Princess of Wales and family watch the VE 80 Flypast from the balcony of Buckingham Palace. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/Gybf0c0kcO\">pic.twitter.com\/Gybf0c0kcO<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Mark Stewart (@RegalEyes) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RegalEyes\/status\/1919385718301843924?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">May 5, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The Prince and Princess of Wales had their hands full keeping their children&#8217;s attention on the flypasts.

Camilla thanked him, saying, \u201cI am so parched today.\u201d The outlet also reports that Starmer broke royal protocol when he tapped the Queen Consort to speak to her about the water. Protocol argues that no one should touch the royal family unless they initiate the contact, which is usually done by a handshake.<\/p>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Source: Getty Images| Chris Jackson King Charles, Queen Camilla, Prince William, and Prince George during the fly-past on&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":96633,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7708],"tags":[7709,7714,7713,7716,533,1501,2832,532,2831,7710,519,7711,7712],"class_list":{"0":"post-96632","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-royals","8":"tag-british-royal-family","9":"tag-catherine","10":"tag-catherine-middleton","11":"tag-heirs-spares","12":"tag-kate-middleton","13":"tag-latest-news","14":"tag-prince-of-wales","15":"tag-prince-william","16":"tag-princess-of-wales","17":"tag-royal-families","18":"tag-royal-family","19":"tag-uk-royal-family","20":"tag-william"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114497614356874217","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/96632","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=96632"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/96632\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/96633"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=96632"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=96632"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=96632"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
