The First Lady then sat out and joined King Charles as Camilla went on to face Prithika PAvade, a 19-year-old French table tennis player. But sadly her form didn’t improve.
The Queen repeatedly hit the ball into the net – much to the amusement of her husband who was watching to her left.
Camilla took to table tennis while on a visit to Saint-Denis, north Paris, home of the Rugby World Cup village and the national stadium and venue for next year’s Olympic Games.
While there, the King and Queen met community sports groups and stars.
Charles chatted with young athletes and also met a host of sporting stars, including the Paris Saint-Germain soccer club president, Nasser Al-Khelaifi, who gave him the club’s No 3 jersey and explained the club’s involvement in supporting young people and communities in difficulty.
They then briefly visited the basilica of Saint-Denis, which houses the tombs of French kings.
Earlier today the King became the first British royal to speak in the French Senate, where he delivered a moving speech about the partnership between the two nations.
