King Charles III has been pictured for the first time with the official papers which are delivered daily in a red box from the UK government. The photo of the new monarch �was taken on September 11 and released by the palace on September 24, to mark the king's first few weeks as sovereign. Behind Charles in the photo stands a black-and-white image of his late parents, Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip; the framed photo was gifted to the late monarch and her husband from King George for Christmas in 1951.
