King Charles and Queen Camilla were emotional as they watched the Red Arrows pass by on the balcony of Buckingham Palace, culminating the events of Trooping the Color.
The King and Queen were joined by other members of the royal family, including the Prince and Princess of Wales and their children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.
The united balcony moment said it all. As Prince Harry watched from afar, the image of King Charles leading the family showed a monarchy waiting together.
The Palace shared an update from the day on the royal family’s official Instagram, sharing videos and photos of touching moments.
The annual event marked the sovereign’s official birthday. Thousands of people have lined the streets to see the royals together.
The appearance of the royal family on the balcony of Buckingham Palace is considered the grand finale of Trooping the Colour.
The Royal Air Force conducted a flyover, a ceremonial flight of aircraft that created a spectacular display overhead.
Princess Anne, Vice-Admiral Sir Timothy Laurence, Prince Edward, Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh, Prince Richard, Duke of Gloucester, Birgitte, Duchess of Gloucester and Prince Edward, Duke of Kent, also joined the king on the iconic balcony.
The royal family also shared behind-the-scenes photos of senior royals on their official Instagram account, featuring King Charles, Queen Camilla, Princess Anne and Prince Edward.
Former Prince Andrew is no longer involved with Trooping the Color after he stepped back from his public role amid scrutiny over his ties to Jeffrey Epstein.
Crowds gather outside Buckingham Palace to watch the Royal Family appear on the palace balcony.
As expected, a group of 12 anti-monarchy protesters outside Buckingham Palace opened yellow umbrellas spelling out “Stop The Reign” while chanting “not my king” and “down with the crown.”
Police officers ushered them out while the crowd, at times, booed them loudly.
