Coronation of Charles III: William and Kate late, the veil is lifted on the reason for this hiccup

• King Charles III was crowned on May 6
• Kate Middleton and Prince William arrived late
• The Prince and Princess of Wales nearly tarnished the ceremony

The disaster was averted by very little… This Saturday, May 6, the coronation of Charles III went off without a hitch or almost. After the arrest of some anti-monarchy demonstrators, the ceremony almost started late. The reason ? The absence of Kate Middleton, Prince William and their three children. This setback also upset the order of service. While the Prince and Princess of Wales should have arrived before Charles III and Camilla Parker Bowles and settled in, they eventually entered Westminster Abbey after the British ruler and Queen. “We will never be on time”, reportedly complained the new King of England before the start of the ceremony. But why Kate Middleton and Prince William were late to this event yet settled like music paper?

According to royal biographer Omid Scobie, one of the authors of Finding Freedom and a close friend of the Sussexes, the couple’s delay may have been due… to their children. “The margin for error was zero. And thankfully, thanks to the weeks of rehearsals the Royal Family took part in before the coronation, the day went smoothly.he acknowledged in a column published in the Harper Bazaar. In fact, apart from Prince William and Princess Kate who joined the procession late (the children were to blame, a source tells me), (…) very few hiccups took place.” Fortunately, more fear than harm since the coronation of King Charles III was able to take place normally. Even if the children of Kate Middleton and Prince William made the show.

Coronation of King Charles III: “one or two” hiccups

And in particular Prince Louis, who amused Internet users a lot with his repeated yawns. And the youngest Cambridge also made a mistake that did not go unnoticed. When singing the British national anthem, the little boy shouted “God save the Queen” instead of “God save the King”. Shortly after King Charles III’s coronation, clergyman admits there were ‘a hiccup or two’ at service. “There were a couple of things that didn’t go strictly to plan. I’m not going to embarrass anyone in particular,” responded the Bishop of Chelmsford, Dr Guli Francis-Dehqani. But overall, the coronation of Charles III was able to take place as planned.
