King Charles III and Queen Camilla crowned in historic ceremony.

King Charles III was anointed and crowned in a historic and solemn two-hour service at Westminster Abbey, followed by a huge military procession and gun salutes. The ceremony sought to marry 1,000 years of history with a monarchy fit for a new era, reflecting a more diverse country with all its religions. The event was on a smaller scale than that staged for Queen Elizabeth in 1953, but still sought to be spectacular. Despite public scepticism, particularly among the young, about the role and relevance of the monarchy, supporters say the royal family provides an international draw, a vital diplomatic tool and a means of keeping Britain on the world stage.
