The former Made In Chelsea man was beaming with joy as she showed off the proud moment he met the Royal Family at the King's Trust Awards on Wednesday. Taking to Instagram, Sam, 32, looked extremely smart as she shook the monarch's hand. He was pictured alongside magician Dynamo at the annual event at Buckingham Palace. And he also shared a reel of snaps from the day, including a group shot which featured the likes of George Clooney, Declan Donnelly and Jamie Laing. However, while Sam had gushed in his caption of the upload, he also admitted he made a huge faux pas while speaking to the King: "Complete honour and pinch me moment yesterday to be invited to the palace," he wrote. "A massive thank you to @kingstrust and @theroyalfamily. I am lucky enough to be able to present an award to Taylor who is an incredibly special human. "After spending some time with him, his story is one that I think will resonate with a lot of young men his age and I know this is only the beginning for him." Sam then added: "Also called the king 'mate' which was mortifying but he was cool about it!" The post was liked by almost 100,000 of his followers, including best pal Pete Wicks. And the group snap also left Melvin Odoom joking the pair pulled the short straw. In the comments section of Sam's upload, the radio star and former I'm A Celebrity contestant joked: "You and me got done dirty at the back," while finishing with a crying with laughter emoji face. While Sam is yet to respond to his pal, his sister also wrote: "Not sammy t sneaking into the same pic as hrh and george and Amal clooney." The official Instagram page for the Royal Family also shared the group image with a touching caption. It read: "Today, our King's Trust Award winners and Celebrity Ambassadors had the honour of attending a special reception with our Royal Founding President, His Majesty The King, at Buckingham Palace. "This memorable event celebrated their remarkable achievements ahead of tomorrow's award show. The awards honour those who have been supported by The Trust, and those who mentor them, in the UK and across the world. "We are immensely proud of the extraordinary accomplishments of our young people and volunteers - their courage and commitment continues to inspire us all." The event saw a number of famous faces hit the red carpet at the event. Alongside Sam was George Clooney as Hollywood's royalty got in on the occasion. Kate Garraway also looked amazing in a patterned gown, while reality TV stars including Jamie Laing and pregnant Sophie Habboo were in attendance.
