The King and Queen have just concluded their whirlwind tour of Australia and Samoa, and it made us take a trip down memory lane.
Royal tours are always a great opportunity to see the royals in action as they undertake several engagements, but there’s also been some funny moments too.
From impromptu dancing to showing their competitive sides, the likes of the King and Queen, the Prince and Princess of Wales and Prince Harry have been pictured in some amusing shots, often having a giggle themselves.
And even the youngest of royals have brought laughter. Prince William and Kate brought Prince George on their Australia and New Zealand tour when he was just eight months old in 2014.
During a visit to Taronga Zoo in Sydney, the little Prince was given a toy Bilby but his reaction to the gift was priceless.
