Has the Queen got the best sense of humour out of ALL the royals? We take a look back at all the times she has cried with laughter... after her recent trip to Samoa saw her shed both tears of joy and sadness
Once called 'uproariously funny' by a former prime minister, Queen Camilla is known for her great sense of humour.
She even cracked a light-hearted joke about her husband's work ethic during her recent visit to Samoa with King Charles.
Referencing a Samoan proverb, 'E au le Inailau a Tama’ita’i,' Camilla said, 'With apologies to the men in the room, I thought that we might make this our motto today, explaining that the moral of the proverb is: 'Women will turn their hands successfully to any task that must be done; and will work hard until it is completed.'
The legend she mentioned suggests that women often finish work first because they continue working into the night while men sleep.
Camilla quipped: 'As one whose husband is often toiling into the small hours, long after my head is on the pillow, I should stress there are plenty of exceptions.'

She also appeared to get emotional and teary-eyed during the farewell ceremony
Alongside her laughter, the Queen also appeared to get emotional during a Samoan farewell ceremony and wiped away tears as leaders mentioned her husband's cancer.
Later on, she seemed to chuckle as rain poured down and caused technical difficulties during the leaving ceremony.
Robert Hardman wrote in his book, Charles III: New King. New Court, about how Rishi Sunak recalled Camilla's wicked sense of humour following his visit to Balmoral.
The former prime minister said: 'She's uproariously funny and it was hard during the dinner to try and keep the volume down because we were having such a good time.'
Camilla even cracked a joke during the Coronation rehearsals last year.

Mr Hardman wrote that when the Archbishop said to Charles, 'If you don’t say anything, if you don't nod or indicate, Sir, I can't crown Her Majesty.'
To which Camilla quipped: 'Don't bother! I'm very happy.'
Mr Hardman also disclosed that Camilla and her sister, Annabel Elliot, were not allowed to sit next to one another in church as children.
Annabel said: 'One of us would start to laugh - disastrous.'
Camilla's giggles are so contagious that she even managed to share a laugh with French President Emmanuel Macron's wife, Brigitte, during the Queen's visit to France last year.
The pair appeared to be the best of friends as they posed for photographs together in the French National Library.
They seemed to be unable to contain their laughter, too, and Brigitte even had to cover her mouth.

The pair's uncontrollable laughter echoed scenes from a decade ago, when Camilla was left in tears after giggling at a photo album in Mexico in 2014.
It is not known what was inside the album, but it is likely to have contained images of Charles during one of his previous visits.
The couple often find humour in things together, and Penny Junor wrote in her book Charles: Victim Or Villain? that Charles and Camilla 'had fun in their friendship, and they made each other laugh'. She would often ask about his work and 'pulled his leg when he was angry or pompous'.
In September 2014, she was spotted chuckling with Prince William at the opening ceremony of the Invictus Games in London, with Camilla even wiping away a tear.

The pair couldn't help but giggle as a musician played a row of 16 squeaky cat toys at The Garden Party To Make A Difference
Back in 2010, Camilla found herself laughing again during a quirky musical performance at Clarence House.
Charles couldn't help but chuckle too as a musician played a row of 16 squeaky cat toys at The Garden Party To Make A Difference.
Camilla was left in stitches as Henry Dagg played his 'cat organ', and at one point TV gardener Alan Titchmarsh offered her a handkerchief to wipe her eyes.
At the time, Mr Dagg described the sound as a 'cat-cophony' and said: 'It's nice to make Prince Charles giggle a bit.'
