King Charles has been making deliberate efforts to connect with the public, according to royal expert Pauline McLaren.

In a recent interview with Dei Express UK, McLaren revealed that the king’s friendly demeanor and approachable nature are not mere coincidences.

It seems that Charles is determined to be a king of the people.

One of the ways King Charles showcases his down-to-earth personality is by taking regular walks and immersing himself in nature.

During one of his outings in the Scottish Highlands, he even stumbled upon a group of mountain bikers and took the time to engage in conversation with them.

This genuine interest in others is a testament to his personable character.

Dr. McLaren, a professor at Royal Holloway, shared an intriguing anecdote about Charles.

Even on his first visit to Buckingham Palace as king, he surprised everyone by stopping the car, stepping out, and spontaneously mingling with the crowds.

This impromptu walkabout demonstrated his desire to break away from the aloof image often associated with royalty.

Charles is determined to manage his public image and be perceived as a king who truly cares about the people.

It is no secret that there were reservations about Charles ascending to the throne after his mother.

However, he has made significant progress in winning over the public through his concerted efforts to be more relatable.

Dr. McLaren acknowledges this, stating, “I think he’s making a real effort to be more popular because it’s no secret there were many reservations about him becoming king, of course after his mother, so in that respect, he’s done quite well.”

Nevertheless, like anyone, Charles does have his moments.

One incident that caught the public’s attention was the now-famous Fountain Pen moment.
