It has been a busy few days for King Charles III as he was named Britain's new monarch on Saturday following the death of Her Majesty The Queen. The new King will take on a realm of new responsibilities, but as expected, the former Prince of Wales already has a strict ritual as to how he likes to spend his day - with his former press secretary revealing all about how he skips lunch but takes a pause at 5pm for sandwiches, before working up until midnight.
While the new King is known to enjoy the finer things in life, he can be fussy about all manner of things - from having his shoelaces ironed to extra requests on how he likes to have his bath water. A clip shared on Saturday of His Majesty at St James's Palace during the Accession Council before his first Changing of the Guard also gave a glimpse into how particular he can be - where he became visibly frustrated at a tray pen getting in the way of him signing papers at a desk.
He could be seen pulling a grimacing face, ushering for staff to remove the tray. Here, we take a look at King Charles' luxurious demands, as claimed by ex-royal household staff:

According to Amazon Prime documentary Serving the Royals: Inside the Firm, the former Prince of Wales earned the title of 'Pampered Prince' among staff at his residence of Clarence House.
Princess Diana's former butler Paul Burrell claimed Charles had "everything done for him".
"His pyjamas are pressed every morning, his shoelaces are pressed flat with an iron, the bath plug has to be in a certain position, and the water temperature has to be just tepid," Mr Burrell said in the documentary, adding that Charles even "has his valets squeeze one inch of toothpaste onto his toothbrush every morning."
Alongside specific bathing temperatures, the King is also said to request the bathtub to be "only half full", according to Mr Burrell.
When it comes to breakfast, the King reportedly prefers a healthy start to his day made up of fruits and cereals, rather than a cooked English breakfast.
He apparently takes his luxury 'breakfast box' wherever he goes, according to chef Graham Newbould, a former member of the royal staff.
Mr Newbould said previously: "Prince Charles has a healthier option. He'd have homemade bread, a bowl of fresh fruit, fresh fruit juices.
"Wherever the Prince goes in the world, the breakfast box goes with him. He has six different types of honey, some special mueslis, his dried fruit and anything that’s a bit special that he is a bit fussy about."
He can also be pedantic over how he enjoys cheese and biscuits at the end of meals and insists they be warmed at a certain temperature, according to a royal insider reported in MyLondon.
Away from home, Charles also had stringent travel demands while he was a prince, which were laid bare in a tell-all book published earlier this year, with claims insisting that the monarch takes his own toilet seat and loo roll on trips.
Journalist Tina Brown, who was good friends with Princess Diana, spoke to more than 120 insiders and sources for her book The Palace Papers.
She detailed how the new King allegedly sends a van of his possessions to his friends' country houses the day before he's due to stay to unload his "bed, furniture and even pictures".
This includes his orthopaedic bed, lavatory seat and Kleenex Velvet lavatory paper.
