King Charles<\/a> has been as busy as usual on Wednesday with the monarch returning to work<\/a> following the summer break and the return of his son, Prince Harry<\/a>.<\/p>\n

After hosting a garden party and meeting with members of the Pakistani cricket team, Charles and his wife, Queen Camilla<\/a>, joined Emmanuel and Brigitte Macron, the President and First Lady of France, at the British Museum.<\/p>\n

The group, who were also accompanied by British Prime Minister Andy Burnham, all headed out to view the Bayeux Tapestry after it was temporarily loaned to Britain. They enjoyed a private viewing of the iconic artwork before an exhibition at the museum opens to the public on 10 September.<\/p>\n

While Charles and Emmanuel looked smart in their suits, their glamorous wives stole the show as they arrived in stylish, matching white dresses.<\/p>\n
