King Charles couldn't have looked happier on Friday when he was spotted beaming at the Royal Windsor Horse Show alongside his niece, Zara Tindall.

The outing marks His Majesty's second since he returned to public duties last week. In a series of touching photos from the event, Charles and Zara could be seen enjoying each other's company, hugging, chatting and laughing together.

Despite the April showers, the occasion certainly pleased His Majesty who was pictured looking thoroughly gripped by the action.

Charles was also pictured chatting away to officials as well as admiring a map with one of the competitors.

Charles joined his fellow royal family members, Prince Edward and his wife Sophie, and Princess Anne and her husband Vice Admiral Sir Timothy Laurence, who have attended this year so far.

The event has always been a beloved occasion among senior royals. Charles' mother, the late Queen Elizabeth II, never missed a year, and since she died in 2022, her adoring family members have attended in her honour.

The Duchess of Edinburgh, who seldom disappoints when it comes to her country chic fashion, appeared to wear a sweet tribute to her late mother-in-law who was famed for donning an elegant head scarf whenever she attended the show.
Sophie wore an elegant patterned Hermes scarf wrapped around her sleek ponytail. She and the late Queen had an exceptionally close bond therefore it comes as no surprise that she would honour her in this way.

Reunion
As the King prepared for the day's events, he passed the Duchess of Edinburgh while taking his seat. The duo, who have a close relationship, shared a small conversation upon meeting.

Brothers together
The King was sat incredibly close to his younger brother, the Duke of Edinburgh and the pair were seen lauging together as they enjoyed the event.

The last time the Queen attended was in May 2022, and despite the fact she was suffering from mobility problems she still stepped out to attend what could arguably be one of her favourite events of the year.
