Jill Biden's Role in King Charles' Coronation and Biden's Visit Plans.
TL;DR
President Joe Biden broke with over a century of precedent by sending his wife, Jill Biden, to attend the coronation of King Charles III instead of a formal delegation. Since 1918, US presidents have dispatched delegations to coronations to push their administration's agenda during the festivities. However, Biden's decision to send his wife as a guest without any formal agenda has been seen as a departure from past practice.
