In the photo, both couples look relaxed, smiling, and the king has his hand in his pocket. Moments after this photo was taken they held a reception for the world leaders who came to the funeral in London.

"The image hints that there may still be moments when the royal family may step back from duty," the British media wrote, adding that this is a photo that symbolizes the beginning of Charles' reign.

It is also noted that the photograph shows "Charles' reduced monarchy in action". Namely, the new king has been advocating for years that only a small number of members of the closest royal family be financed from the public budget.

Many found a certain symbolism in the photo.

"This is the past and the future of our monarchy," wrote some, delighted by this move by the royal palace, while others were bothered by the fact that the photo was taken during a period of mourning for the queen: "Are you taking a picture while mourning a mother or grandmother ?'

However, the fact that the second son of Charles, Harry and his wife Meghan, are not in the photo attracted the most attention. Namely, the term "The Fab Four" is often mentioned in the comments. This nickname was originally used by the British for Harry, Meghan, William and Kate, until there was a split between the brothers. Now that's what they call Charles, Camilla, William and Kate.
