Charles, 77, together with Queen Camilla, made a visit to Northern Ireland this week and toured a digital learning hub on Tuesday where he met local business owners supported by the King’s Trust.

The monarch picked out a beaded bag charm for Charlotte from Rachel Rose Accessories, a jewellery brand with bright, sparkly goods for young children.

The Prince and Princess of Wales‘s daughter is known as a fan of playful accessories, having made a bracelet for Prince William ahead of attending the Taylor Swift Eras tour in 2024.

After picking up the gift at W5 LIFE at Odyssey Place, People reported that Charles told the business’s owner Rachel Rose: ‘Thank you, she will love that.’

Rose later took to Instagram to marvel over her encounter with the King, writing: ‘I’ll genuinely never get over this moment.’

The accessories maker later explained that she started her business after suffering ‘dark times’.

‘I wanted to give back,’ she told Hello, adding: ‘I’m trying to encourage people to come off their phones and use their hands to create some magic.’

Like her mother, the Princess of Wales, Charlotte has started incorporating pieces with deep personal and historical significance into her wardrobe.

King Charles picked up a special gift for Princess Charlotte from accessories maker Rachel Rose in Belfast on Tuesday

At Trooping the Colour, she paid a touching tribute to her late great-grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II, by wearing a diamond horseshoe brooch.

The cherished gift, from the Queen herself, was a poignant nod to both her royal lineage and her personal connection to the late monarch.

Similarly, Kate honoured the late Queen by wearing the Bahrain pearl drop earrings, a classic and timeless pair from Her Majesty’s collection.

Yet Charlotte’s style remains age-appropriate and relatable. She balances heirlooms with more accessible, youthful choices.

A perfect example was her recent appearance at Wimbledon, where she wore a charming Pandora bracelet adorned with handpicked charms believed to carry personal meaning – offering a sweet glimpse into her personality.

Yesterday, the King and Queen went their separate ways as they embarked on their second day of a three-day visit to Northern Ireland, with Camilla enjoying a stroll through the village of Hillsborough, just 12 miles from Belfast, and home to Hillsborough Castle.

The King’s first stop was the Newcastle Community Cinema, founded in 2008 by a group of local film enthusiasts, which now sits at the heart of community life.

As he arrived at the Box Office he was given a special ‘VIP’ ticket by Vera Edelstein, who was manning the booth.

Princess Charlotte has been seen sporting a selection of fun accessories over the years, including a pair of pink sunglasses at Wimbledon in 2024

‘Is that for me?’ he beamed, adding: ‘That’s very generous of you.’

He also asked about the recent films shown and how popular different films were.

Charles was then invited into the screening box to help start the playing of a short trailer for a recent film A Quiet Love about a real life deaf couple and their lives through the Troubles.

Meeting John and Agnes Carberry afterwards, he told them: ‘You were very courageous. When did you meet? At school? Oh childhood sweethearts. Lovely.’

He also met Northern Irish actor Ian McElhinney, who has starred in Derry Girls and Game Of Thrones.

Afterwards he headed to the Donard Methodist Church where he met volunteers from The Pantry Food Bank, giving them the giggles as he examined the contents of their boxes.

He seized on a toilet roll and declared: ‘Very important.’

The group provides food for around 52 families a month and fear demand growing with rising heating oil prices this winter.
