King Charles III's wife Queen Camilla was crowned alongside him in May as the world watched on, and now, one month later, the royal has been bestowed a special honour.
It has been announced that the Queen has been awarded for her services to New Zealand, and will become an additional member of the New Zealand Order of Merit.
All was revealed in the the King's Birthday and Coronation Honours List 2023, which was published by the New Zealand government on Monday.
Also on the special list of 182 honours is former Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern, who is set to be Dame Grand Companion of the New Zealand Order of Merit.

Charles took a solo trip to Romania last week, and it is believed he is still there. The monarch is likely to stay at his remote, rustic farmhouse in the small village of Viscri which he bought in 2006.

Where will King Charles visit next?
While no other official trips or dates have been confirmed, a visit to Paris could be on the cards for the royal as the couple postponed their trip there in March.
