It was one engagement that the Duchess of Cornwall was delighted to fit into her busy diary.

She was met by daughter-in-law Sara, with the sleeping infant in her arms.

Lola Rosalind Parker Bowles was born last week at Queen Charlotte's Hospital in West London, making the Prince of Wales a step-grandfather.
