During their inaugural visit to Jersey, King Charles III and Queen Camilla faced a brief security disruption on Monday, prompting their swift departure from a public event. The incident unfolded at the Royal Square in St Helier, where the royal couple were attending special sessions of the States Assembly and the Royal Court. Reports indicate that while Queen Camilla was enjoying ice cream and King Charles was engaged in conversation, security personnel abruptly intervened, escorting them to safety following a potential security threat.
Eyewitness Matt Taylor, founder of the Daily Salt, recounted the moment when King Charles paused to chat at his stall, only to be interrupted by security. “He didn’t seem panicked but he was quite stern,” Taylor remarked, reflecting on the calm yet swift response of the royal contingent. Following a thorough investigation that confirmed the threat was unfounded, normal proceedings resumed, allowing the royal couple to continue their scheduled engagements.
This incident comes amidst heightened security concerns globally, including recent events such as the attempted assassination of former US President Donald Trump. Despite the interruption, King Charles and Queen Camilla proceeded with their duties, which included engagements highlighting local agriculture and fisheries, demonstrating their commitment to their first visit to the Channel Islands since King Charles ascended to the throne.
