The Queen is on a two-day tour of Northern Ireland without King Charles

Queen Camilla was photobombed today by a confident toddler wearing a tuxedo during her royal tour of Northern Ireland.

The Queen travelled on a solo tour of Northern Ireland while King Charles continues to receive cancer treatment.


During her visit to Belfast, she was greeted by a young boy at Knotts Bakery who took a shine to the cameras.

Fitzwilliam Corrie-Salmon, the 23-month-old son of one of the owners of the bakery jumped in front of the cameras that were photographing the Queen.

The young boy, who was wearing an adorable black and white tuxedo, waved to the cameras and showed off a sweet smile.

The Queen joked: “We’ve got a natural for the cameras!”

Camilla also quipped after asking the boy’s age that he would be “kept in order” by his family in the bakery.

The Queen was given a tour of the business by Fitzwilliam’s parents, William Corrie and Zoe Salmon.

At the end of her tour, Camilla was given a bag full of fruit loaf and iced madeira to take home with her to the King.

Corrie commented on the Queen’s interaction with his son saying she was “great” and that he would have “quite the story for him when he’s older.”

Queen Camilla was also quizzed about the King’s health during her visit to Belfast.

She said that Charles is “doing very well” and that she is trying to “keep him in order.”

The Queen spent the rest of the day in Belfast trying local cuisine from Coffey’s Butchers and Arcadia Delicatessen on Lisburn Road.

A shop assistant in The Arcadia Deli called Brenda Robb also gave the Queen a get-well-soon card for Charles and sent her best wishes.

Camilla was also gifted food from local businesses to take home with her to London and pass on to the King.

The Queen said that the King "was very disappointed he couldn't come [to Northern Ireland]."

It comes after the Queen made a joke about her own grandson during her visit to the Isle of Man yesterday.

She quipped that Prince Louis, the youngest child of Prince William and Princess Kate was “quite a handful.”

Meeting with a baby in the crowds with the same name, the Queen said: “I have a Louis grandson…quite a handful.”

Prince Louis is five years old and attends Lambrook School in Berkshire with his two siblings Prince George and Princess Charlotte.
