Charles must be so proud. He has a wonderful son.

I do believe Charles was emotional throughout. He may have appeared unfeeling but I believe he was trying to keep himself in check. He truly loves his son, and hearing those words, of course it moved him.

His voice is so amazing. It might be the building echoes but Omgosh. Such power and dominance and kindness in his voice

William wears those robes with beautifully, and looks so imposing....you have to own the look and he does😍

Whilst it is a very touching part of the ceremony, and both of them were visibly (and genuinely) emotional about it (as you would expect), the kissing of the cheek is actually an official part of the ceremony.

Diana would have been so proud of her son at this moment.

[rebeccadesrochers]

I can't believe for such a short speech he had to read it from a card. how sincere can that be?

[Good-Enough]

That was a beautiful part, watching his son Prince of Wales, promising to stand by him. It's priceless.

Diane raised a wonderful son, and a future wonderful King ❤

Queen Diana heritage so evident! The Royal family owe her gratitude!

I think this is the first time I’ve seen legitimate emotions play across Charles’ face. And though this is part of the ceremony it seemed as though he was truly touched by his oldest child kissing him. It made him seem more human. 💕😊

I saw somebody trying not to make eye contact during a pledge of loyalty.
