Woman Starts Patting Royal Horse in London. His Reaction Left Everyone Feeling Mushy

Animals are increasingly being recommended for emotional support and many pets such as horses are known to figure out how one feels through facial expressions and voice. The result of this has been visible in a video posted by  Experiencing London (@experiencing.london), where a woman's entire mood brightens up when she interacts with a very special horse. The adorable creature is tasked with carrying British officials in royal processions and it is common for tourists to take photographs with horses out there. A woman also stepped forward to get a photograph with the King's horse and the animal's reaction to her was so heartening that it left the woman with a wide beaming smile.

Experiencing London (@experiencing.london) is a social media account that posts videos featuring the royal family and it shared a clip of the heartwarming interaction between the tourist and the king's horse. According to the text accompanying the video, this incident was captured on 16th April 2024. She went and stood beside the horse before gently patting him, after which he turned to look at her.

Seeing the woman, being so affectionate towards him, the horse also reacted in the most endearing way possible. The horse bowed his head down for the woman who continued patting him. At one point both of them put their heads against each other and got into a loving embrace. The comfort both of them shared with each other, was evident by the expressions on the duo's face. People around them were joyously smiling and in the end, the woman left with a grin on her face.

User in the comment section loved the moment between the sweet duo. @cedric.tso shared a sweet reasoning for the bond and wrote, "The bond between Indigenous people and horses is a testament to the deep respect and reverence that these communities have for the natural world, & a reminder of the enduring power of the human-animal." @tulipsandsunshines appreciated the way the woman approached the horse, and believes that is where the magic happened, "She has a beautiful aura.. and animals can sense it." @s.stocchino87 adored how everyone got out of the frame so that the duo could have this moment with each other, "Awesome moment! And fair play to the guard for recognizing and not reacting! Big respect for the king's guard!"

There are several videos in the account featuring this horse, with one of them featuring his funny side. That video has the horse 'biting' the visitors playfully and shows how he loves warmth so much that he traps his favorite visitors. The visitors have just one option if they want to get out, they need to pay him with love. A man patted the horse on the back and got out of the 'love trap,'  while the video ended beautifully with a grand show, featuring other horses from the royal stable in their full glory.
