King Charles III had a funny encounter with a bird during his visit to Ireland

During an official visit to Ireland, King Charles III of the United Kingdom found himself in a comical situation that quickly went viral online.

The BBC reported on the incident.

The incident occurred in the coastal city of Newcastle, where the monarch was speaking with local residents. At that moment, bird droppings landed on his jacket, prompting a lively reaction from those present, particularly the children.

Charles III himself took the situation in stride and calmly continued his conversation.

“Good thing it didn’t land on my head,” the monarch said, after which he continued greeting people.

People in the crowd also joked that such an incident might be a “good luck charm,” but the king didn’t respond, merely smiling.

Despite the incident, the visit continued as planned: Charles III visited a movie theater, as well as the Pantry charity food bank, located in Donard Church. There, he spoke with volunteers and helped pack a food box.

Meanwhile, Queen Camilla carried out her own itinerary in County Down, where she met with local entrepreneurs in Hillsborough.

As a reminder, during the ceremonial opening of the new parliamentary session at the Palace of Westminster, King Charles III of Great Britain assured that the British government would continue to provide comprehensive assistance to Ukraine.
