THE King and Queen could not contain their amusement as they were confronted by a pair of rather frisky cows.
Charles and Camilla were attending an exposition in Jersey showcasing the finest goods the island has to offer – including a selection of seven heifers from the best herds in the area.
The royal couple were stood beside a pen containing the animals – which were given as a gift to the King – when the humerous and slightly awkward situation unfolded.
As they spoke with fellow attendees, one of the heifers stands up on its hind legs and attempts to mount the other – in plain view of the Queen.
Camilla appears rather shocked at first, before smiling and laughing at the rather intimate display.
Charles glances at the unfolding events with a rather severe look on his face, before cracking a wry smile, continuing his conversation and waving to someone.
The cheeky pair are part of a group of seven Jersey heifers from the best herds on the island, given as gift to the King and set to be taken back to Highgrove.
The scenes unfolded at the Jersey Expo Event at Weighbridge Place in St Helier, featuring the finest wares Jersey had to offer, including honey, ice cream, electric bikes and a range of local produce.
The event brings the best of Jersey into one place, focussing on key areas of the island’s agriculture, fishing and aquaculture industries and the island’s journey to net zero.
Matters became much more serious later on however as Charles and Camilla were ushered out of the engagement amid a security concern.
Both were taken on a short journey into a nearby hotel.
But several minutes later they reemerged and continued with the tour for the presentation of the King’s Colour outside Pomme d’Or hotel on Libération Square in St Helier.
There was a small issue of concern and an investigation turned out to be a false alarm, it is understood.
It comes after Princess Kate beamed as she presented trophies to Wimbledon players following an intense Grand Slam.
Kate Middleton, 42, handed champion Carlos Alcaraz, 21, his golden cup as he retained his Wimbledon title against rival Novak Djokovic.
The royal handed Chair umpire James Keothavong his award first.
She then presented Djokovic, 37, his runner-up trophy after a nail-biting clash with Alcaraz – who became the ninth man to retain his Wimbledon title in the Open era.
Djokovic was the last player to do so, crowned victorious in both 2021 and 2022.
And Prince William and George were seen putting on an emotional display during England’s disappointing Euro 2024 final match against Spain yesterday.
William, who is President of the FA, and his eldest had erupted with joy, leaping out of their seats and embracing as Cole Palmer equalised to bring the score to England 1 – 1 Spain.
But the Royal pair also shared a moment of heartbreak and both held their heads as Gareth Southgate’s side were ultimately defeated 2-1 by the other team.
In their shared bonding moments, George was also seen appearing to strategize with his father, furrowing his brow and pointing at the pitch amid the intense Euro 2024 final.
Wills was also seen with an equally invested expression and open hands as he watched on the edge of his seat.
But, tragically for England, a goal by Oyarzabal put Spain 2-1 up, and the Three Lions’ rivals held on to their lead until the final whistle.
