Prince George has an important place in the coronation of Charles III

February 27, 2023

With around 70 days left until the first UK coronation in 70 years, more and more details of the upcoming ceremony are leaking to the press. Among them is the participation of the eldest son of the Prince and Princess of Wales, second in line to the throne, Prince George, who will play an important role.Dr Tessa Dunlop told the Daily Mail that the line of succession of Prince William and Prince George will be visually highlighted on May 6 during the coronation at Westminster Abbey. Despite the presence of many active members of the royal family, the focus will be on the two direct heirs of Charles III. “(They) want to focus on continuity,” Dunlop said. “So we’re going to see a lot of footage of Carl, William and George.”At the last coronation, which took place in June 1953, the then four-year-old Prince Charles also took part in the coronation of his mother. He sat between the Queen Mother and her aunt, Princess Margaret. Like Elizabeth II, he received the greatest attention from those who gathered that day at the ceremony.
