King Charles left comedian Matt Forde in fits of laughter over his joke at the Royal Variety Performance which played off Donald Trump's 'they're eating the cats, they're eating the dogs' comments.
The monarch met the political satirist, who is known for his impressions, following the show, which he had to attend without Queen Camilla by his side.
Mr Forde joked about unfounded claims made by Donald Trump during the recent presidential campaign that illegal immigrants from Haiti were eating locals' pets in the small Ohio city of Springfield.
Imitating Donald Trump, he said: 'They're eating the cats, they're eating the dogs,' before turning to look at the royal box and address the King.
'Your Majesty King Charles, you are named after a spaniel - be very careful, they'll eat you alive.'
The camera spanned to the monarch, who laughed enthusiastically.
Following the show, the monarch was seen meeting Mr Forde who asked: 'Did you mind the joke about sounding like a spaniel?' to which the King replied: 'No, it was a very good joke. You've waited for 300 years to be able to say it!'
The Trump joke stems from a comment the US president-elect made during a debate with Kamala Harris.
He said: 'In Springfield, they're eating the dogs.
'The people that came in – they're eating the cats. They're eating the pets of the people that live there. And this is what's happening in our country.'
The debate's moderator, ABC's David Muir, slapped down the ex-president, saying: 'The city manager told us there were no credible reports of pets being harmed... by the immigrant community.'
The local police department later announced that it had 'no credible reports or specific claims of pets being harmed, injured or abused by individuals within the immigrant community'.

It’s a different system. I can accept that. It is not serving them, here.
I still think that Charles could have used his ascendency to do a complete about-face on his previous positions. “Yesterday, I was a child. Today, I am King.”
It is the only virtue of the system. But, he didn’t have it in him - as his Mother probably knew.
He’s a jack ass. The French had the right idea about Royals.
If you're watched Britcoms since the 1960s, you'd know that Brits are more likely to laugh AT the royals than WITH them.
Trump won in a landslide taking the GOP senate hate Trumpers, the house, the popular vote, this kind of crap MSNBC, Mika and her dope of a husband, sunny hostin and the federal government
This is ignorable
And I should ad, the more than half a Million Amerivans who died saving Europe twice.

Apparently it matters where in Ohio the Haitians are eating the pets....
And just how many anti-illegal immigrant articles will the Democrat controled mainstream media actually produce? The answer is zero. That is why American citizens have to rely on reports from other citizens because corporate media lies and hides issues and is not to be believed.
Ungreatful leaches is what they are.
You are right, we should follow that particular French lesson.
King putz is an inbred moron
“ Apparently it matters where in Ohio the Haitians are eating the pets‘
Yes. It matters. Of course it matters. That is the only incident I was aware of also, and one people constantly refer to when this subject comes up. Not an immigrant, American, born here, not in Springfield but hours away in canton, and she is a known psychopath.
To extrapolate that out to condemn an entire community, especially one in which she is not a part of, is disgraceful.
The other report was a Facebook post about a woman who said the Haitians in her neighborhood stole and ate her cat. She found the cat a couple days later in her basement, retracted and apologized. Something you should consider doing.
I don’t get it.
The Haitians are illegal aliens that must be sent back to their sh^thole country so that American citizens are not bled white supporting them.
Whatever gets them out of the country is fair game and we should ignore limp-wristed deceptions such as yourself.
Limp wristed deceptions?
You are outright lying. Gtfoh
Part of the reason pets were disappearing was their use in witchcraft. That evidently is a large religion in Haiti.
Springfield has been “unhounded”, thanks to Haitian newcomers.
Oh good grief.
That’s not even true. There has been no uptick in missing pets in the area.
