Sunshine and showers for King Charles aboard HMS Iron Duke

The King was spotted enjoying what appeared to be a glass of Pimm's as he attended a reception on the flight deck of the Royal Navy Frigate HMS Iron Duke.

His Majesty donned both sunglasses and an umbrella as he and Queen Camilla braved the changeable weather during the visit, which aimed to highlight the defence ties between the UK and France.
