King Charles III visited to the Isle of Man this week, representing his first official visit to the self-governing island since ascending to the throne in 2022. During the visit, the monarch made his way to Tynwald, where he commended the heritage of the island's parliament and its indigenous Manx language.
He also took part in a garden party at Government House, the official residence of the Lieutenant Governor in Onchan, and reunited with a 104-year-old Burma Star veteran.
Exclusive to the Isle of Man, the title represents the island's standing as a Crown Dependency, a constitutional arrangement otherwise only shared with the Channel Islands. It has been handed down through British monarchs since 1765.
On the most recent episode of the Daily Mail's Palace Confidential podcast, Diary Editor Richard Eden and Editor-at-Large Richard Kay looked back on the King's journey and examined the three-word title by which he is recognised on the island.
Richard E said: "So the King visited for the first time as monarch and from all accounts, it brought back lots of happy memories for him."
Richard K remembered Charles visiting the Isle of Man as a youngster with his mother, Queen Elizabeth II. "He was taken on her first visit as monarch, so I'm not quite sure how old he was, but he certainly made a reference to it during this trip," Richard E added.
Host Luke Blackall also noted that Charles is not addressed merely as "the King" on the island.
"I know, he's Lord of Mann," Richard K revealed. "His mother was also known as the Lord of Mann, which is complicated.
"But yes, there are these quirks in the British monarchy. I mean [Prince] William is known in Scotland as the Duke of Rothesay and one of his other titles is the Lord of the Isles.
"I mean there are all these wonderful rather old-fashioned titles, but they mean a lot in the local place where they're rooted. And, in the Isle of Man, they're very proud of the fact that the monarch is their Lord of Mann," he continued.
During the visit, Charles reflected on the many memories he holds from visits to the island. "My wife and I have very happy memories of the welcome that we received when we were here together in 2012 to mark my late mother’s Diamond Jubilee," he shared.
"We learned much about this beautiful Island, its proud traditions, rich history and heritage, and its passion for innovation."
He added: "As a young boy, I accompanied my late mother when she herself came here for the first time as Queen and Lord of Mann.
"That is a very special memory I have always treasured, and it gives me particular pleasure, and a deep sense of continuity, to return again to this wonderful Island."
He continued: "On this occasion I am proud to be continuing the tradition of visits by my family. The first Royal visit was by my great great great grandfather, Prince Albert, who was rowed ashore from the steam driven Royal Yacht, Victoria and Albert in September 1847, disembarked at Ramsey, and became the first Royal visitor to the island."
