King laughs at Fashion Week amid brother's arrest

King Charles III attended the first day of London Fashion Week, appearing composed and engaging with attendees, including fashion designer Stella McCartney. This appearance occurred mere hours after his younger brother, Prince Andrew, was arrested and his properties, Wood Farm and Royal Lodge, were searched by Thames Valley Police. Reports suggest the King and Buckingham Palace were not forewarned of the operation.

Charles publicly stated his 'wholehearted support and co-operation' for the police investigation into his brother, affirming that 'the law must take its course.' He also pledged that the Royal Family would 'continue in our duty and service.' The former Duke of York was arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office, with detectives investigating his conduct as a trade envoy.
