Royal family shares heartwarming moments of the King’s warm reception Down Under
Buckingham Palace is celebrating King Charles III’s success in Australia, where thousands gathered to welcome the monarch despite protests from anti-monarchy groups. The royal family's social media accounts shared touching moments from the tour, highlighting the King’s interactions with the Australian public.
A post from the Palace featuring photos of the King greeting crowds was captioned: "Wow Sydney, what a turnout!" as supporters flooded the comments with praise. One commenter noted, "Sydney has truly outdone itself! The incredible turnout for Their Majesties King Charles III and Queen Camilla showcases the vibrant spirit and unity of our city."
Another observed, "Republicans called this a 'farewell tour,' but it was anything but that. The supportive crowds were huge, especially outside the Sydney Opera House. Protesters were outnumbered, and the King and Queen were relaxed, engaging with everyone. A huge success! I don’t see Australia becoming a republic anytime soon."
The King's tour has been hailed as a significant achievement, reaffirming strong ties between the monarchy and Australia despite ongoing republican sentiments.
