Beaming King Charles waves as he attends Sunday church service in Norfolk
The monarch, 76, appeared to be in high spirits as he arrived dressed in a smart grey suit and brown loafers, carrying his own umbrella.
The venue is known for being a regular place of worship for members of the royal family, particularly during Christmas time. It is not known why Camilla, 77, wasn't present for today's service.
Meanwhile, earlier this week however, the King's wife attended the annual King George Racing Weekend in Ascot, dressed in an elegant in an off-white ensemble.
She was also seen recently attending the annual Sandringham Flower Show alongside Charles.
The royal couple arrived at the flower show on their estate in a carriage that once belonged to Queen Victoria.
They were all smiles as they rode the route lined with members of the public and waved to them as they passed by.
Looking well and relaxed in a smart suit alongside his wife, elegant in a black and white flower print dress, Charles looked delighted to be there again after being forced to miss last year's event due to his cancer treatment.

Many in the crowds commented on how delighted they were to see him back.
The King asked one young winner about what she had won her cup for, telling her: 'I must say it's very impressive. And at least you've now had some rain.'
During the event, Charles and Camilla also met with a number of guests and members of local gardening and horticultural cubs.
They shook hands with members of the public who queued to greet them, and even bent down to pet a friendly black dog that belonged to one of their greeters.
Camilla was left in stitches after a fan showed her a tattoo he recently had done of her royal cypher on his leg, and revealed that one of her police officers also has the same tattoo.
Phil Smith, 61, from Northampton pulled up his shorts to show Her Majesty his latest royal inking, telling her that it had 'bloody hurt', prompting her to laugh uproariously.
Wearing a black shirt, large cross, denim shorts and sliders, Mr Smith said after their meeting: 'I just think she's fabulous and have got to know her a bit. We just hit it off.
'I love the royal family and she in particular has got a good sense of humour. She frequently responds.
'I waited to see her to show her my latest [tattoo] and she laughed. She said one of her security men has also had it done too.'
He said he thought it was of their joint royal cypher and the police officer was there with her that day.
He added: 'Honestly, she's just great. We exchange letters. She knew who I was. She asked how long it [the latest one] took and I told her about two and a half hours.
'But I told her this one bloody hurt. She just finds it hilarious.
'She pulled her police officer's sleeve and said 'look, it's catching on!'
This week marks the last of the royal couple's official engagements before they head to Scotland for their summer break, as per their traditional royal holiday schedule.
King Charles is expected to vacation at Balmoral Castle, which was his late mother Queen Elizabeth II's favourite royal residence and where she died in 2022.
After a busy summer, the royal couple will be looking forward to a well-deserved rest before their next engagement in September and may prove to be a controversial one.
This is because they will be playing host to US President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump.
The president will be paying an official state visit to the UK from September 17 to 19, and will be staying at Windsor Castle.
It will come around just over a month of Mr Trump ends his four-day private visit to Scotland, where he is currently staying at his Turnberry resort in South Ayshire.
His presence in Scotland, a country he is fond of and owns several golf courses in, has been met by protests carried out by local residents and environmentalists.

Admissions jump at Everyman cinema chain despite ‘challenging' backdrop
Cinema chain Everyman has revealed that sales surged by more than a fifth over the past year following a jump in admissions and higher ticket prices. Boss Alex Scrimgeour hailed the performance over the first half of 2025, saying it reflected the 'successful execution' of Everyman's growth strategy. Shares in the company rose in early trading on Monday morning as a result. The company said it is trading in line with its forecasts for the full year, despite a 'challenging economic environment'. It told shareholders on Monday that group revenues rose by 21% to £56.5 million for the half-year to July 3, compared with a year earlier. This was supported by a 15% jump in admissions to 2.2 million for the half-year. It was among cinema groups to have been boosted by major new releases over the period including Thunderbolts, A Minecraft Movie and Mission Impossible: Final Reckoning. The chain said the average price paid for a ticket rose 6% to £12.46, while there was also a 5.9% increase on the amount spent by customers on food and drinks. Everyman currently runs 48 cinemas across the UK, after growing further with the opening of its latest venue in Brentford in March. It plans one further opening this year at The Whiteley in Bayswater next month. The UK's fourth biggest cinema operator said it will open two more venues next year and highlighted a 'strong pipeline' of future developments as it continues with expansion efforts. Mr Scrimgeour, the former Cote restaurant boss, said: 'Our performance in the first half reflects the successful execution of our strategy, with growth across all key metrics and ongoing delivery of our measured expansion programme. 'This is driven by Everyman's unique brand of high-quality, experience-led cinema. 'We look forward to building on this momentum in the second half of the year.' Shares in the company were 6.6% higher in early trading.

I moaned at my neighbour for his security camera looking into my garden & he add ANOTHER one -it feels like Big Brother
DO you think you've got neighbours from hell? Well, prepare to be stunned as a frustrated man gets candid on his latest 'creepy' ordeal. A stunned man from the UK has recently revealed that after relaxing in his garden, he noticed his neighbour had a security camera which was pointing directly into his outside space. 2 2 Annoyed with the ' nosy ' behaviour, the young man who posts online under the username 'Scooobz 13', confronted the guy next door. But much to his surprise, rather than simply move the camera or point it in another direction, his ' neighbour from hell' decided to install a second camera. Posting on social media, the content creator shared a short clip as he sat in his garden, giving his followers a close-up look at his neighbour's motion detector device. Alongside the clip, the man attached an audio that said: 'Ask our neighbour to respect our privacy - his solution? More surveillance. 'Welcome to the reality show I didn't sign up for.' Not only this, but the man, who feels like he's on Big Brother, then wrote: 'When you politely ask your neighbour not to film in your garden, so he naturally installs a second one.' As well as this, in another video, the man zoomed in on the security camera and asked: 'Is this weird or is it me? The only thing he can view is me in my garden.' As he showed off his outside area, which was being spied on by his neighbour, he fumed: 'Here I am, sat in my garden and look at that there - staring right at me.' The TikTok clip, which was posted under the username @ scoobz_13, has clearly left many gobsmacked, as in just three days, it has quickly racked up 99,100 views, 1,073 likes and 307 comments. Social media users were horrified by the neighbour's camera and many flocked to the comments to share their advice.

A second penned: 'Use a mirror to reflect light into the lens." Whilst someone else wrote: 'Are they clothes lines going across the garden? If not, put one high up along the fence and hang sheets.'
