The King couldn't contain his laughter as he was stormed by 'very healing' hugs from New Zealand women's rugby team players.
Charles III, 75, found himself middle of a very wholesome scrum as he greeted the players at Buckingham Palace tonight.
The Black Ferns, who have made their way to the UK to take on England's Red Roses, affectionally smothered the royal after he said: 'Hug, why not'.
Winger Ayesha Leti-I'iga had made the cheeky request and her teammates joined in, leaving the head of state giggling from the group embrace during a reception this evening.
Later, Charles made special mention of the heartwarming gesture with an impromptu speech.
The King couldn't contain his laughter as he was stormed by 'very healing' hugs from the New Zealand women's rugby team players
'I much appreciated this chance to meet you and have such a warm hug from most of you,' he expressed. 'Very healing.'
Details of Charles' first major tour since his cancer diagnosis were released on Tuesday, with the King travelling to Australia and making a state visit to Samoa for a Commonwealth leaders' summit.
But he will not travel to New Zealand and said: 'I'm extremely sorry I can't come to New Zealand in later October because of doctor's orders, but I hope there'll be another excuse [to come] before not too long.'
Champagne was served for Charles' guests but the sportswomen opted for fruit juice and water and the King made the players laugh when he joked about the situation.
He said: 'I'm so pleased to have this opportunity to greet you all, for a short moment - apparently not to be able to give you a drink.'
Ayesha Leti-Iiga, a 25-year-old Winger, said: 'I asked him "Can we have a hug?" and the King said "Yes" but as I went in to hug him the others all jumped on top so it turned into more of a scrum.'
Liana Mikaele-Tuu, a 22-year-old Forward, said: 'I thought you said "We" so we all got involved!'
The King then had a separate hug for Prop Tanya Kalounivale, 25.
The touching moment is captured on the Black Ferns Instagram page, where the players can be heard asking the royal for a hug 'if it's OK with him'.

The Black Ferns, who have made their way to the UK to take on England's Red Roses, affectionally smothered the royal after he said: 'Hug, why not'
Kalounivale said: 'The King said his position when he played rugby was a back rower - a lock. He said that was the worst position because when the scrum collapses you're in the middle of it.'
After meeting the players, Charles received two gifts from the team: a Black Ferns Jersey signed by the squad and a wooden waka, a traditional maori boat engraved with the New Zealand proverb: 'We are all in this together.'
Accepting the gifts, the King said: 'I'm not sure I deserve this.' He told the team: 'You can always blame me if you don't win - you can say I interrupted your training.'
The King then proceeded to the Grand Staircase of Buckingham Palace to join the team for a group photograph.
Yesterday, Charles and Camilla announced that they will be going on a royal tour next month - with plans to have a BBQ and visit Sydney Harbour on the agenda.
