The Clarence House Twitter and Instagram accounts for Charles and Camilla have been retired.


King Charles and Queen Consort Camilla will no longer use their Clarence House social media accounts and will instead use the Royal Family feed.

The Clarence House pages have been updated to say: ‘This account is no longer being updated.

‘Please follow The @RoyalFamily for updates on His Majesty King Charles III and Her Majesty The Queen Consort.’

The Clarence House accounts had 1.1million followers on Twitter and a further 1.7million on Instagram.

The last post shared from the account was a black and white portrait picture of the Queen confirming her death at Balmoral on Thursday.

It comes after William and Kate, now the Prince and Princess of Wales updated their social media pages to reflect their new royal titles.

The couple’s website was also updated to the Royal Foundation of The Prince and Princess of Wales.

Meanwhile, Charles smiled through the pain as he continued with royal duties three days on from the death of his mother. The new King met with dignitaries from across the Commonwealth at Buckingham Palace today.

Both Charles and Queen Consort Camilla appeared to be in good spirits as they got straight to work by meeting dignitaries from across the Commonwealth at Buckingham Palace today.

The new King hosted a reception with Realm High Commissioners and their spouses in the Bow Room at Buckingham Palace, pictured smiling as he greeted officials from across the world.

Guests at Buckingham Palace included Foreign Secretary James Cleverly and the Commissioner for Antigua and Barbuda – whose republican Prime Minister is threatening a referendum on ditching the Crown – as well as representatives for Bahamas, Belize, Canada, Grenada, New Zealand, St Christopher and Nevis, St Lucia and St Vincent and the Grenadines, and the Honorary Consul of Tuvalu and the Acting High Commissioner for Australia.

Crowds gathering outside the palace then erupted in cheers as his motorcade emerged from the gates. He could be seen waving to people lining the street as the convoy travelled up the Mall.

Earlier today, an emotional Charles was greeted by thousands of well-wishers as he arrived at his royal Residence earlier today where he met with representatives from the Commonwealth – while his mother Queen Elizabeth II’s coffin embarked on her historic final journey from Balmoral to Edinburgh, before it heads onto Westminster Abbey for her state funeral.

Crowds lining the length of The Mall – including excited young children sat on top of the shoulders of parents trying to take photos with their phones – cheered and waved at Britain’s new monarch as he was driven in his state Rolls-Royce from Clarence House through the Palace gates at around 1pm, accompanied by a motorcade of four cars and four police motorbikes.

The King was followed shortly after arriving at Buckingham Palace by his wife Camilla, Queen Consort, who was also cheered by mourners.

Next week, the King and Queen will embark on a tour of the four home nations in the run-up to his late mother’s state funeral at Westminster Abbey and burial at St George’s Chapel in Windsor, following her death at Balmoral on Thursday aged 96.
