Ice cream break for King Charles and Queen Camilla during Rome visit

The visit came shortly after the King addressed a joint session of the Italian Parliament. The couple spent time chatting with well-wishers outside the gelateria, just moments from the parliamentary chamber.

Ilana Lelcuk from Israel described shaking the King’s hand as a “once-in-a-lifetime” moment, while Georgina Wilson from the UK said it was “amazing” to exchange a few words with both royals.
