The King and Queen were briefly pulled away from an engagement in Jersey after a 'false alarm'. Camilla was said to be eating an ice cream at an 'expo' event when a member of the royal entourage said something to her in private. She and the King were then ushered away and taken into the nearby Pomme d'Or hotel in the capital St Helier. It is understood a member of the royals' team raised a concern, but after an investigation, it turned out to be a false alarm.
The King and Queen travelled to Jersey on Monday, before they are due to head onto Guernsey on Tuesday in their first visit to the two islands - which are crown dependencies off the coast of France - since the King acceded to the throne. The trip will end the day before the planned opening of Parliament on Wednesday, which is also Camilla's 77th birthday.
