With the King's formal Coronation now less than three months away, we take a closer look at the roles some key royal family members are expected to take in the historic ceremony
While King Charles and Queen Camilla will undoubtedly be taking centre stage at this year’s historic Coronation, the rest of the royal family will also be at the heart of the public’s attention as they come together to mark the special day.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle It is widely believed at this point, that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle will be invited to the ceremony, even despite the claims levelled against the royal family in both his recent book Spare, and in their Netflix series Harry and Meghan. Speaking to the Mirror, she told the publication: "Causing maximum angst is the vexed question of the Sussexes; will they attend the big day and if so in what capacity? Historical precedent doesn't bode well.
During the ceremony, as the heir to the throne, William will be expected to pay homage to his father by bending the knee and pledging his allegiance to Charles as well as touching the crown and kissing the monarch's right cheek.
