King Charles has been pictured for the first time following the leaked release of Prince Harry's memoir, Spare, which speaks about the royal family.
EXCLUSIVE: First look as Prince Harry's Spare book goes on sale
The photos show the monarch being driven out of Sandringham Estate alongside a driver. Charles was bundled up in a beige overcoat as he looked out the window of the car. He has been staying at the Norfolk estate since the Christmas period with the Queen Consort, and they are due to head for their Scottish home of Birkhall in the first weeks of January.

Harry claimed that the pair argued over their relationship as well as Harry's wife Meghan, which led to William lunging at Harry and knocking him to the ground.
The monarch's appearance also coincides with the release of an ITV trailer where Harry promotes the book and is asked about his father's coronation.

ITV News presenter Tom Bradby asked the Duke whether he would return for the event, to which Harry replied: "There's a lot that can happen between now and then. But, the door is always open. The ball is in their court.
"There's a lot to be discussed and I really hope that they're willing to sit down and talk about it."

Tom, who was once close to both Prince William and Prince Harry, then asked: "Wouldn't your brother say to you, 'Harry, how could you do this to me after everything? After everything we went through?' Wouldn't that be what he would say?"
Prince Harry said: "He would probably say all sorts of different things."
