WATCH: King and Queen Receive Colourful Traditional Welcome in Samoa

[@kc4699]

what an extraordinary welcome! well done, Samoa! i'm Australian and was delighted to have the royal couple here, but so disheartened by the disruption. i'm so pleased that they must feel ever more welcomed to our region. also, seeing such a sincere and traditional ceremony felt like living in a National Geographic article from decades ago. it was really beautiful.

[@londonmanatu9853]

Oh Wow! For a very small nation of just over 220,000 people to show this much respect for their King & Queen & their Commonwealth of Beloved Nations, I think this little Nation just showed the world what respect and honor looks like...Thank you your Highness and the people of Samoa for such a welcome. God Bless Your Majesties and The Commonwealth, and God Bless the Host Nation.

Lovely to see King Charles and queen Camilla in summer outfits. They both look so relaxed

[@Vicious_Species]

Those are not summer outfits. Those were outfits of the early Colonizers in both Samoa's in the early 1800's. Not a bad thing but Samoa adopted that fashion.

It may have gotten a bad rep back in the nineties, but there’s something nice about people who found true love in each other and are living out their days together. Guess it’s a modern day fairy tale

[@maggiemondo7459]

It is 25 centigrade with 95% humidity in Samoa so for us Brits this will be hot ! Good to see Queen Camilla has a fan - I would have mine out too.

No you are wrong! It's a sacred event...it's not an entertainment! When Kings and paramount chiefs meet in an ava ceremony, no one dares to giggle or act as if it's a casual meet! Unless the formailities are over, then they can talk in a more open manner.

Very POOR reception & POOR TV camera men & program because Samoa is not ceded to the British Monarchy but to NZ. No wonder. The British monarchy is the highest all CHIEF is under the British monarchy leadership. NZ should explain this to the SAMOAN GOVERNMENT

[@leo-tj3jw]

[@gailjones1807]

I found this the late Queen Elizabeth II trained her heir King Charles iii for his royal duty of the Commonwealth countries, especially Saoma who accepted King Charles iii with their traditional ceremony of honor and acceptance of brotherhood. Not, your Queen Camilla, she was on a different plane altogether... She looked very uncomfortable, hot, and uneasy in her demure; she needs lessons on decorum to represent you country better!! She was weird in France with the first Lady of France for D-Day honoring fallen veterans of the British royal military services, weird in the late Princess Diana's territory and felt uncomfortable, and she is also unable to feel comfortable in a different environment than her own country: she reminded me of her trip to Kenya, a country of diversity and ethnicity.. But his Queen Camilla, doesn't know how to handle foreign affairs because it is written on her countenance and her actions that the camera picked up every time... She is no Queen Elizabeth II,!!!! And that is a FACT!!! Queen Camilla is only accepted because of King Charles iii: take King Charles iii out of the equation, she would be nothing but a homewrecker, and that is a FACT too!!! So you may try to build up her image, but you can only go so far because Camilla's actions speak louder than words, and not 🚭🚫 in her favor!!!! Thanks for sharing this royal engagement globally!!!!
