King Charles given Rolls-Royce by Bahrain
Buckingham Palace has released records listing the official gifts received by members of the royal family from 2020 to 2023.
The lists outline the official gifts presented to Queen Elizabeth II, King Charles, Queen Camilla and other family members.
The gifts, which range from a set of toiletries to bottles of alcohol and pairs of cufflinks, came from heads of state, patronages and official engagements.
In May 2023, the King received a coronation gift in the form of a Rolls-Royce Cullinan Series II motor car from the King of Bahrain, Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa.
Also in May, Charles received a feather crown, two beaded chest pieces and two carved staffs from Amazonian Indigenous leaders Uyunkar Domingo Peas Nampichkai and Atossa Soltani.
A month earlier, the King received two gold Blue Peter badges, one each for himself and Camilla, from the children's television show presenters during a visit to Liverpool.
As a coronation gift, the then-president of the United States, Joe Biden, and his wife, Jill, gave Charles a leather folder containing printed letters between Queen Elizabeth II and President Eisenhower inviting him to the United Kingdom, with a photograph of the visit.
Meanwhile, in 2021 the late Queen received a set of gifts connected to one of the nation's favourite television programmes.
During a visit to the Coronation Street set in Greater Manchester, the Queen received a cobble from the original set in a presentation case, two gin glasses with Manchester skyline silhouette design and a bottle of Coronation Street gin.
She also received gifts from President Biden, an engraved, specially commissioned Tiffany sterling silver box and a floral brooch, during tea at Windsor Castle.
In 2022, the year of her Platinum Jubilee, the Queen received a Cedar of Lebanon tree from Pope Francis as part of her green canopy initiative.
In 2022, the Prince and Princess of Wales, William and Kate, received snorkelling gear during a royal tour of the Caribbean.
They each received a snorkel set, a wetsuit, a pair of diving fins and a swimming cap.
William and Kate were accused of harking back to colonial days during the visit to Jamaica after the pair shook hands with crowds behind a wire mesh fence and rode in the back of a Land Rover, just like Queen Elizabeth did 60 years ago.
Demonstrators accused them of benefiting from the "blood, tears and sweat" of slaves, while in the Bahamas they were urged to acknowledge the British economy was "built on the backs" of past Bahamians and to pay reparations.
Official gifts can be worn and used, but are not considered the royals' personal property.
The royals do not pay tax on them.
They can eat any food they are given and perishable official gifts with a value of less than £150 ($A314) can be given to charity or staff.
Gifts cannot be sold or exchanged and eventually become part of the Royal Collection, which is held in trust for successors and the nation.
The rules on official presents were tightened following the Peat Inquiry in 2003 into the sale of royal gifts and the running of St James's Palace.
Charles' then-most trusted aide, his former valet Michael Fawcett faced allegations of selling unwanted royal gifts and pocketing a percentage of the proceeds, but was cleared by an internal inquiry of any financial misconduct.
A Rolls-Royce and a feather crown were among the official gifts given to British King Charles during the first year of his reign.

Robbie Williams gets 'Heaps Normal' in new collab with Canberra-born brand
A Canberra-born non-alcoholic brewery has now got a British pop star as a creative collaborator. It was announced on Monday that Robbie Williams has joined forces with Heaps Normal as a creative collaborator and an investor as the brand enters the British market. The musician, who was last in Australia over Christmas and New Year's for his biopic Better Man, said the decision to team up with the beer brand was a personal one. "Teaming up with Heaps Normal is personal for me," Williams said. "I saw what they were doing, creatively and culturally, when I was down in Australia, and I really wanted to get involved. "I love the ethos of the Heaps brand, and I'm excited for what we're going to achieve together around the world." After first encountering Heaps Normal during his recent tour of Australia, Williams messaged the brand, and the relationship grew from there. In June, the singer also did an advertisement on his social media for the beer brand. "I met the Heaps Normal guys when I was down in Australia, and they showed me the mission they're on to change the way people play. I'm impressed - the love is real," he wrote in an Instagram post. While there are no specific details about what is in the works, Williams plans to work with the Heaps Normal team on creative campaigns, cultural moments, and new product ideas - all aimed at sparking more honest conversations about how and why we drink. The brand also said that Williams' commitment was long-term. Since it was launched out of Canberra in 2020, Heaps Normal - led by punk promoter Andy Miller, brewer Ben Holdstock and pro surfer Jordy Smith - has become Australia's top-selling independent non-alc beer. As well as picking up a slew of awards along the way, Heaps Normal has been at the forefront of the non-alcoholic movement here in Australia. And while its music roots might not be as deep as Williams', the team at Heaps Normal has also been a supporter of the live music industry down under. Now, it's setting its sights on the UK. After soft launching into the market in June, Heaps Normal's products are now in more than 170 pubs and retailers throughout the country. "Heaps Normal isn't just about non-alc beer - it's about culture," Heaps Normal co-founder and CEO Andy Miller said. "Robbie gets that. He's been on his own journey, and he brings an incredible creative energy that lines up with what we stand for as a brand. "For a small, independent business, having Robbie advocating for us and spreading the Heaps Normal ethos to his community is wild. It's a long way from the early days of Heaps Normal when we were getting laughed out of pubs, that's for sure."

‘Seems to have been taken in Pizza Express in Woking': Princess Eugenie's jaw-dropping gaffe
Princess Eugenie has appeared to inadvertently remind the public of Prince Andrew's public fall from grace while posting a birthday tribute to her elder sister Princess Beatrice. Beatrice marked her 37th birthday last week and her only sister Eugenie led the celebrations with a warm message shared via her official Instagram account. 'Happy happy birthday to my dearest Beabea.. my big sissy, the best in the entire world,' she wrote alongside a carousel of photos with Beatrice. In one of the snaps, Beatrice and Eugenie are seen tucking into an Italian-style panini. Unfortunately for the Princesses of York, the panini photo drew immediate comparisons to Prince Andrew's infamous 'Pizza Express' story from his notorious BBC Newsnight interview. The pizza story was clearly front of mind for social media users, some of whom took to Eugenie's comment section and pointed out the unfortunate coincidence. 'Seems to have been taken in Pizza Express in Woking. A regular haunt,' one commenter wrote. During the career-ending BBC interview, Andrew denied having sex with Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre because on that night he took his daughter to a 'Pizza Express in Woking'. 'I was with the children and I'd taken Beatrice to a Pizza Express in Woking for a party at I suppose four or five in the afternoon,' Andrew said. 'And then because the duchess (Fergie) was away, we have a simple rule in the family that when one is away the other is there.' Pizza Express is a British-based fast food chain serving up Italian-style favourites on a budget. The Duke of York's ties to Epstein have been back in the British press in recent weeks due to the publication of a new biography by Andrew Lownie. Reportedly, the new book has garnered sympathy for the Princesses, who are seen as 'collateral' damage amid their parents' scandals. 'All they have ever done is stand by their parents in the most horrific public circumstances,' a source close to the Princesses told The Daily Beast's Tom Sykes. 'I don't think it's fair to criticise them for (their parents). 'They're sweet girls who understand that they are immensely privileged, and have always been grateful for the privilege they've had, and have tried to use it to do the right thing.'

Driver fined $330 for blocking Abbie Chatfield's Bondi driveway
Don't miss out on the headlines from Lifestyle. Followed categories will be added to My News. A British woman has copped a $330 fine after she parked across the driveway of a well known media personality, who tried to help her avoid the blunder. Abbie Chatfield, who lives in Sydney's Eastern Suburbs, shared that she was walking her dog Walter when she had the 'craziest interaction' outside her apartment block. The 30-year-old revealed that while outside she witnessed a British woman drive up the street, almost hitting Chatfield's car, before proceeding to park 'halfway across the driveway'. 'You could not get a car out at all,' Chatfield said. The It's A Lot podcast host said she wasn't going to say anything until the woman asked for her friend's opinion on the park. That's when Chatfield, who is dating musician Adam Hyde, tried to help the woman. For Australia's best lifestyle coverage — download the app direct to your phone. 'I said, 'It actually isn't' because I thought she was confused about the parking rules,' she said. 'I've seen things online about people from England parking recklessly, and I thought maybe she was confused. She's obviously not from here and I was trying to help her to let her know it was illegal.' But, the woman then said that she 'wasn't asking' Chatfield, and when the former reality star tried to explain that people with 4WDs and utes wouldn't be able to get out, the woman argued that 4WDs could drive 'over the gutter'. Abbie Chatfield has shared a 'crazy' interaction she had after a British woman blocked half of her driveway with her car. Picture: Abbie Chatfield/TikTok Chatfield said she was just trying to help the woman, believing she was genuinely confused. Picture: Instagram/@abbiechatfield The woman then refused to move her car, while she and her friends laughed at the Australian star. Chatfield was left stunned by the interaction, saying all she was trying to do was help the woman and her neighbours. Chatfield also revealed that parking rangers are often in the area, saying that before Hyde obtained a parking permit he would be fined for staying as little as 10 minutes longer than he was supposed to. 'I was trying to help her. I thought she was actually wondering. Then she starts yelling at me in this Cockney accent,' Chatfield said. But, it seemed like Chatfield got the last laugh in the end because, as she predicted, the woman copped a fine for blocking the driveway that amounted to $330. 'Well, well, well. I tried to warn her. I tried to tell her. There's also parks up the entire street but she wanted to be a c***,' she said. 'Sorry darling, it's going to cost you.' The woman ended up with a $330 parking fine. Picture: TikTok/@abbiechatfield Fellow social media users felt that the woman got what was coming to her after her rude response to Chatfield. 'I would sit on the deck with a coffee and wait for the show to start,' one social media user said. Another added: 'I'm so petty I would have written, 'You should have listened'.' 'I feel literally so content right now,' one commented. One social media user added: 'Oooft $330 is a big one too. She's gonna regret that.' 'I love this for her,' another said. Another added: 'The way I'm cackling at this.' '$330 as the fine is just so satisfying to me,' one said. 'Brilliant', 'karma' and 'splendid' were among some of the comments on the video. One social media user said it was the 'best possible outcome'. Originally published as Driver fined $330 for blocking star's Bondi driveway
