Hugs and flowers for the Princess of Wales

The four-year-old was unfazed as he handed Kate pink roses. He was chosen to meet the pair on their first engagements since taking the titles after the Queen died.

As they arrived at Holyhead RNLI station on Anglesey, the Waleses crouched down to have a chat with Theo who was looking smart in his school uniform.

His mum Rebecca said: "We were actually on the way to school when I changed my mind and decided to bring him down here for a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

 The 35-year-old added: "He has just met the future king. Today's visit is history. We had to be here."

Later on, in Swansea, the Princess was hugged and given more flowers by smiling two-year-old Charlotte Bunting, dressed in traditional Welsh costume.
