King Charles III is expected to address the nation for the first time as sovereign later, following the death of his mother Queen Elizabeth II.

Britain's longest-reigning monarch died peacefully, surrounded by her family, at Balmoral in Scotland on Thursday.

The King was pictured leaving Balmoral on his way to Aberdeen airport earlier today.

He is expected to return to London with his wife, Camilla, now Queen Consort, where he will later meet the prime minister.
