King Charles and Queen Camilla braved the rain and grey weather on Friday as they headed to the Epsom Derby to cheer on their horse, Treasure, who is due to race.
The monarch was seen waving at cheering crowds as he arrived at the event and looked incredibly dapper in a grey suit. Meanwhile, Camilla looked radiant in a light blue coat as she supported her husband at the event. And making sure to keep rain-free, the royal added a feathered trilby to her ensemble.
Earlier in the month, Charles attended the Royal Windsor Horse Show, one of his first public outings following the news that he had been diagnosed with cancer. The King was seen enjoying a tender moment with his niece, Zara Tindall, and laughing away with his younger brother, Prince Edward, during his outing.
