The royal couple joined forces with the Prince of Wales, leading UK politicians and veterans at major events in Portsmouth and Ver-sur-Mer this week to mark the sombre occasion.
All eyes were on King Charles and Queen Camilla today as they came out to support veterans on the 80th anniversary of D-Day.
In a poignant response, Camilla, 76, said: 'Oh, it does matter, as long as... it's humanly possible.' In a touching remark, Charles later called a veteran 'admirable' after he recounted a memory from his days as a soldier. Charles, along with President Macron, Mr Sunak and military leaders laid wreathes of poppies at the memorial as Elgar's Nimrod was performed by a brass band in the background, with the national anthems of France and the United Kingdom also being played as the Red Arrows roared overhead.
