THE King drops the traditional handshake yesterday — and shares a fist bump with presenter and DJ Tyler West.
Charles greeted the 28-year-old while meeting celebrities and winners at the 20th Prince’s Trust Awards ceremony.
Earlier, Tyler told his social media followers that he slogged to the bash on foot through the rain.
He added: “Now I’m walking into Buckingham Palace like a wet dog with mud on my feet.”
The winners had been announced on Tuesday by Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly — but Ant, 48, missed the party because of the birth of his baby with partner Anne-Marie Corbett.
Dec, also 48, joked: “He’s got a week-old baby he’s breastfeeding, or helping with.”
Charles, 75, laughed and said: “Please give him my regards.”
The King also shared a joke with Love Island star and basketball player Ovie Soko.
Looking up at the 6ft 7in hunk, he said: “You don’t even have to jump.”
Other stars at the event included Kate Garraway, Martin Freeman, Paralympian Ellie Simmonds, Pixie Lott and Penny Lancaster — who told the King hubby Rod Stewart was going on tour again.
Celebs Go Dating host Anna Williamson told Charles, who is having treatment for cancer: “It’s lovely to see you looking so well.”
The awards recognise young people who have succeeded against the odds, improved their chances in life and had a positive effect on their local communities.
