ABC News reporter Dan Harris, in Bhutan for the wedding of King Jigme Khesar to commoner Jetsun Petma, had what he called a “King and I” moment at the royal nuptials.

Harris, who was in the crowd at the wedding with a camera, was approached by the King, who wanted to know if the reporter was enjoying his stay and if it was his first time in the country.
