King Charles' coronation is set to take place next month
After becoming King following the tragic death of his mother Queen Elizabeth II in September, King Charles III is gearing up to be crowned during his coronation ceremony later this month.
Though the Palace is yet to confirm the official guest list for the day, it’s been reported that some high profile figures have not been invited to the occasion as part of the slimmed down guest list. “One of the King’s personal secretaires was passing on a message from the King,” she wrote. “They explained that this coronation was to be very different to the Queen’s. 8,000 guests would be whittled down to 1,000 alleviating the burden on the state.”
During an interview with OK!, she said: “I will definitely be watching it on television and will be championing it from there. I'll be watching with the Corgis [Muick and Sandy] who will be up there barking away.” Meanwhile, according to the Daily Mail, the Duke of Rutland and his wife Emma will also not be at the King’s coronation. This is in stark contrast to his own father’s experience who attended the coronations of both Queen Elizabeth II and her father George VI.
