Charles III to be crowned King today

Charles III will be crowned King today, Britain’s first coronation in 70 years.

In a ceremony of pomp and grandeur, world leaders, kings and queens from around the world, friends and family will gather at Westminster Abbey as the world watches on as the heir to Queen Elizabeth II is crowned king.

Following the ceremony, King Charles III and now Queen Camilla will ride in the Gold State Coach back to Buckingham Palace.

A contingent from the Armed Forces of Malta will be among some 4,000 service personnel lining the route on the first part of the royal journey from Buckingham Palace to Westminster Abbey.
