He has been crowned in a historic ceremony

Charles is known to carry his own fountain pen for when he is frequently called on to sign visitors' books during royal visits.

Last September, Charles tried to sign a visitor’s book at Hillsborough Castle near Belfast, but his pen didn’t work, much to his annoyance.

Unlucky Charles had reacted with frustration after the pen he was using leaked on him.

Thankfully the day of the coronation was not so difficult as his pen did work as normal - although he did have trouble screwing the lid back on.

Queen Camilla appeared to smirk in good faith at her husband’s stationery difficulties.

As he took the oath, the King said: "I, Charles, do solemnly and sincerely in the presence of God profess, testify, and declare that I am a faithful Protestant, and that I will, according to the true intent of the enactments which secure the Protestant succession to the throne, uphold and maintain the said enactments to the best of my powers according to law."

He then signed copies of the oaths, presented by the Lord Chamberlain, while the choir sang.

Charles has now been crowned after promising to pledge his life to his country in a historic coronation ceremony watched by millions.

The monarch made the solemn oath alongside Queen Camilla in a service attended by world leaders, celebs and royals.

Smoke filled the air around Horse Guards Parade as a six gun salute rang out at the exact moment the St Edward’s Crown was placed on Charles' head.

The rest of Britain also marked the reign of a new King by firing their own gun salutes at precisely 12.01pm.

Thousands of royal fans camped outside cheered “God Save the King!” amid a fanfare of trumpets.

The coronation procession at 1pm kicked off the celebrations in incredible style.

In scenes similar to his mother's coronation, Charles and Camilla made the journey back to Buckingham Palace in the 260-year-old Gold State Coach.
