London, United Kingdom - In a momentous event marking Britain's grandest ceremonial occasion in seventy years, King Charles III was anointed and crowned at Westminster Abbey on Saturday. The ceremony, which was attended by 2,000 distinguished guests, featured world leaders, members of the royal family, and celebrities. A "slimmed-down" version of the traditional coronation service was conducted, followed by the separate crowning of Queen Consort Camilla. Before the coronation, King Charles III, accompanied by his elder son Prince William and daughter-in-law Kate Middleton, greeted enthusiastic well-wishers near Buckingham Palace. The world's attention was captivated by the royal family as they have experienced significant changes recently, such as Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's departure from their senior royal duties and the passing of the country's longest-reigning monarch, Queen Elizabeth II.
