A pen leaked over King Charles and he was not amused – 17 right royal reactions
You might remember the moment a few days back when King Charles got right royally irked by a tiny table.
And now it turns out it’s not just tables that are out to get him, pens are too. Specifically, this leaky pen which really got His Majesty’s goat.

And while there was naturally huge sympathy for the Queen’s eldest son at such a difficult time …
The man has just lost his mother. He is under the sort of pressure few of us will ever experience. Cut him some slack. #TheKing

I suspect I would be a bit short-tempered, too, if I was taking on the biggest job of my life, with precious little sleep, in the week my mother died. #royal #KingCharlesIII #thequeen https://t.co/6HRenTbp8w

Anyone thinking King Charles behaviour was unacceptable.
God forbid you ever see footage of my Dad trying to fix something while I was standing in ‘his light’.— Geoff Norcott (@GeoffNorcott) September 13, 2022
