The Prince of Wales held a garden party on behalf of King Charles at Buckingham Palace on Tuesday afternoon.
In the absence of Princess Kate, William invited other young members of the Royal Family to accompany him.
Princess Beatrice, Princess Eugenie, Peter Philips, Zara Tindall and Mike Tindall appeared alongside the prince for the drizzly engagement.
During the garden party, Prince William met with guests from a number of the Prince and Princess of Wales’s patronages, military affiliations and passion projects.

Crowds waited in the Buckingham Palace gardens under a sea of umbrellas for the Royal Family members to arrive this afternoon.

He carried a long umbrella in one hand and with the other he removed a black top hat to greet the crowd.

Meanwhile, Zara kept in fitting with the colour scheme wearing a pearl-coloured dress with pink buttons accessorised with a pink hat and heels.
The three royal women also carried matching black umbrellas to shelter themselves from the rain.
Zara appeared alongside her husband Mike Tindall who was also in keeping with the colour scheme of the day sporting a light pink tie.
It is common for members of the Royal Family to coordinate their outfits for royal events; at Trooping the Colour in 2022, the late Queen Elizabeth, Princess Kate and Camilla arrived in matching blue ensembles.
