Coronation of King Charles III

[MsZem]

Vogue says tiaras are still de rigueur at coronations, but expect fewer of them. (One tiara per princess? )

I was right and Vogue was wrong

There are at least twenty royal families present from around the world!

As usual, Jetsun Pema is the prettiest of them all.

Princess Charlotte is just precious.

I am so glad for the historical continuity of the British monarchy. Over a thousand years of history. Extraordinary.

Based on what a I just heard
In the Bill of Rights of 1689 Parliament declared that no future monarch could be a Catholic or be married to a Catholic. This provision was reaffirmed in the 1701 Act of Settlement and remains in force to this day.

I don't like Charles and never have and also don't like most of the British Royals, but damn, they KNOW how to royal. Love the tradition.

That's the fascinating point for me today. Knowing the history and hearing titles I know go back to the 15th century.

Actually some go back to the 10th century to Edward the Confessor. I can't imagine what Charles is feeling.

Having worked for the Catholics for a couple of years, I approve of this.

 

[airgelaal]

The ceremony is very beautiful.

 

[miffy]

Charlotte and Louis are so sweet ?

 

[Simone411]

And now finally the crowning of King Charles! God save the King!

 

[Karen-W]

So far, I'm really appreciating this ceremony. It seems like just the right blend of ancient and modern.

 

[myhoneyhoney]

He’s crowned! That was amazing to watch.
Off to bed now. Good night, FSU Folks!

 

[Bunny Hop]

I suspect there was more discussion about the inclusion of the Catholic Archbishop as part of the ceremony than there was about all the other faiths which were represented.

 

[Simone411]

Well, we also saw the crowning of Queen Camilla. And here's a little info about the upcoming Coronation Concert at Windsor Castle which I'm excited about.

This is fascinating.

If I were Charles or Camilla, though, I'd be terrified the crown would fall off.

 

[Frau Muller]

God bless KING CHARLES III and QUEEN CAMILLA!!!! ?

Lol. They really jam it on their heads though

 

[MsZem]

I can't imagine what Charles is feeling.

I wonder what Prince George is thinking, knowing that one day (hopefully far in the future) it will be him in that position.

 

[VICK B.]

I do support King Charles....


But his coronation is way too long.. Queen Elizabeth was 5 hours.

And another is the thing is about both being double adultery ...

I was wondering the same. He certainly looked like it was dawning on him that he'd be doing the same one day.

 

[Karen-W]

She really is! I love her entire look! Just the perfect color and immaculately tailored.

 

[MsZem]

Penny Mordaunt certainly understood the sartorial assignment.

Her arms are going to be sooooo sore tomorrow

 

[skategal]

Finally a hymn I recognize. I usually live this one.

However, I think this is the one Mr. Bean was singing in his famous skit and now I can’t get that image out of my mind.

Looks like Louis got tired

 

[Frau Muller]

C’MON - BRING ON THE GOLDEN COACH!!!! My highlight of the day is coming!!!!

 

[Frau Muller]

Grand classical music!!! Somebody skate to it!!!

 

[Frau Muller]

Ok - Bring on The Golden Coach! It’s time!

 

[airgelaal]

Louis was brought back in time to sing the anthem.

 

[Frau Muller]

Back with full regalia! ?
Golden Coach, please…
