King Charles seemingly navigated his way out of an awkward situation earlier this week.

His Majesty, who was spotted at the Royal Albert Hall to attend Roger concert for the Kings trust, dodged a strange comment upon himself.

Speaking to the King, Sir Rod said: “May I say well done in the Americas, you were superb, absolutely superb. You really put that little rat bag in his place.”

Speaking about King Charles’ response; expert Richard Kay said: “Are the cameras whirring? Are the mics picking this up? He knows in his heart of hearts that the answer is almost certainly yes, but he’s a master at these kind of awkward situations but he always knows he doesn’t want to make the situation worse, and he effortlessly moved on.

“We couldn’t actually hear what remark he, Charles, made to Stewart because his back was to the camera but he is practiced at this sort of thing happening in public life and he rarely makes a false move,” he noted.
