King Charles III was officially proclaimed as the new monarch of the United Kingdom (UK) at a ceremony at St James's Palace in London on Saturday.

Charles, 73, became king immediately following the death of his mother Queen Elizabeth II, but a historic meeting formally confirmed his role on Saturday.
