King Charles and Queen Camilla appeared in high spirits on Sunday as they attended a church service near Balmoral wearing matching tartan outfits.
Ahead of the service, the royal couple were spotted exiting their car outside the granite Crathie Kirk, which is located near Charles' sprawling Balmoral estate in Aberdeenshire.

Titled 'The Weather of My Being,' the piece is made up of three anniversary songs, with each designed to reflect a different aspect of enduring love.

The couple's actual anniversary on Wednesday fell during their state visit to Italy. During their tour, they met with the convalescing Pope at the Vatican and enjoyed a state banquet in their honour.
For Sunday's church service, Her Majesty wore a vivid blue wool coat complete with a green tartan collar. She wore the statement garment layered over a ruffled cream blouse and carried a green leather bag for a spring-ready look.

His Majesty, meanwhile, looked his usual dapper self dressed in a green tweed coat and a tartan kilt crafted from the King Charles III tartan - a new variety of cloth designed by the Scottish Tartans Authority in 2023.

Charles and Camilla's Italy state visit
Charles and Camilla's Scottish outing comes after their four-day state visit to Italy and the Vatican. During their historic visit, the pair carried out a number of engagements including a meeting with the Pope, a trip to Ravenna, and a black-tie banquet in Rome's Quirinale Palace.

"Their love for Italy and all things Italian - things Italians cherish, culture, food, heritage - resonates very, very deeply. The State Visit brings together, quite simply, the best of Italy and the best of Britain, the closest of friends, allies and partners."
