Queen says King would be ‘delighted’ to see 1950s photograph of great-uncle Lord Mountbatten

The Queen said the King would be “delighted” to see a photograph a well-wisher in Shrewsbury had kept safe since he took it in the 1950s in the hopes of sharing it with the royal family.

He said: “I spent the day with Lord Mountbatten and he said to me, ‘would you like to take a picture?’ because I had with me a Brownie box camera, so I took a picture and I have been waiting until today for a casual opportunity to tell them I had this photo.“Lord Mountbatten and King Charles were the greatest of friends, Charles really loved him, so I think he might find that touching.“I was going to write to him but it seemed so informal and that’s not me.

Mr Mustafa, 65, said: “I was really glad she accepted my gift. We all need to learn from each other’s faith and those holy books are the main platform for that so I’m really glad I could do that on behalf of the interfaith forum and the Shrewsbury Muslim Centre.
