As King Charles and Queen Camilla celebrate 21 years of marriage today, revisit the moment that first confirmed their romance to the world. The couple's first public kiss took place on June 26, 2001, at a garden party hosted at Somerset House in London. As Charles arrived, he greeted her with a warm kiss on each cheek—a "polite peck" that broke years of public reserve and signaled the royal family's growing acceptance of their relationship.
