She told Express.co.uk: "Charles is far less formal than his mother. If you look at the type of engagements that the King and Queen are carrying out [in Kenya], you will see more informal engagements. "Charles ordered Indian food from the local food truck.

Meeting students who are benefitting from the Prince’s International Trust." However, Charles has been preparing for his role as King for most of his life and now he finally has it, he appears to be relishing in making the job his own.Marlene added: "He knows how to work a crowd – and he has been preparing for this job as king for decades. "I do not think the late Queen would have stopped at that food truck.

Prince Philip might have, however." King Charles delivered an important speech during his visit to the country that was once a victim to British colonial violence.
