King Charles laughed after accepting the surprise offer from a player on New Zealand’s women’s team.

A New Zealand women’s rugby player surprised King Charles III after asking him for a hug at a Buckingham Palace reception.

The King said “why not” after winger Ayesha Leti-I’iga made the request, and he was then affectionately mobbed by a group of players.

Afterwards he told the group “it was like being flattened by a scrum”.

New Zealand play England women at Allianz Stadium live on BBC One this Saturday, KO 14:30 BST.
