King Charles and Queen Camilla caused chaos on Wednesday as they stepped out for another jam-packed day in Rome.

During the afternoon, the pair, who are currently in Italy on a four-day state visit, were swarmed by a sea of people as they strolled down a picturesque, cobbled street in the Italian capital.

Charles and Camilla paused outside an ice cream shop where Queen Camilla, 77, was presented with a silver platter topped with a tub of golden ice cream. Beaming from ear to ear, King Charles's wife proceeded to accept the frozen dessert, before adding: "Thank you very much".

Locals were quick to catch a glimpse of the wholesome encounter, circling around Camilla as she took a moment out of her busy schedule to enjoy a local sweet treat.
