King Charles IIIis already proving himself a relatable monarch.

Viewers watched as Charles approached to sign the Accession Proclamation and appeared frustrated to have both a pen box and the inkpot on the small desk, which also had to fit the large documents. He gestured to aides to clear the desk, leading to the items being rearranged.

Once the documents were placed, Charles again signaled to an aide to remove the pen box from the desk, giving him room to sign the historic document.

The awkward seconds that kicked off the historic moment caught the attention of many online, with some finding the moment humorous and others finding it surprisingly relatable.

Others joked about Charles “stealing” the pen when he walked away but later, it was revealed the pen was his, to begin with — a gift, along with the inkpot, from William andPrince Harry. It’s unclear whether it is an old keepsake or a more recent gift for the occasion.

“As my Heir, William now assumes the Scottish titles which have meant so much to me. He succeeds me as Duke of Cornwall and takes on the responsibilities for the Duchy of Cornwall which I have undertaken for more than five decades,” King Charles said during the speech, recorded in Buckingham Palace’s Blue Drawing Room.

“Today, I am proud to create him Prince of Wales, Tywysog Cymru, the country whose title I have been so greatly privileged to bear during so much of my life and duty,” he added. “With Catherine beside him, our new Prince and Princess of Wales will, I know, continue to inspire and lead our national conversations, helping to bring the marginal to the centre ground where vital help can be given.”

Before continuing on, he added, “I want also to express my love for Harry and Meghan as they continue to build their lives overseas.”
