King Charles IIIandQueen Camillareceived awarm welcomeat Hillsborough Castle in Belfast, Northern Ireland on Tuesday, but their visit came with one small hiccup.
King Charles and Queen Camilla both attempt to clean their hands of the ink as he tells an aide, “I can’t bear this bloody thing! Every stinking time.”
Another pen was then brought to the Queen Consort to complete the signing.
The incident came just days after Charles had anotherwriting snafuwhen the Accession Council made his official proclamation in the State Apartments of St. James’s Palace in London on Saturday.
Charles approached to sign the Accession Proclamation and appeared frustrated to have both a pen box and the inkpot on the small desk, which also had to fit the large documents. He gestured to aides to clear the desk, leading to the items being rearranged.
