King Charles III’s office has paid a huge tribute to Queen Camilla by sharing her heartwarming video message.

Queen Camilla, who has a longstanding commitment to championing literacy and creative writing, invited 50 young literary talents to a reception at Buckingham Palace in recognition of their remarkable stories.

The adorable video was captioned: “I cannot wait to see what your writing will produce in the future.”

It added: “The Queen addresses the finalists of #BBC500Words during the Grand Final of the children’s writing competition at Buckingham Palace.

“Did you catch the 500 Words special episode of #TheOneShow last week? Head to @bbciplayer to watch the final and hear the winning stories.”

The Palace played host to the Grand Final of BBC 500 Words, the UK’s most celebrated children’s writing competition.

The six winners of the contest had been crowned. Their identities were revealed in a special episode of The One Show aired on World Book Day (6 March, BBC One and iPlayer).
