The kings hadn’t even opened the balcony doors yet, and the people were already excitedly waving umbrellas and state flags. They waited hours to be there and be a part of it historic moment for the UK, its first coronation in 70 years.

Prince Harry was not there who returned to his country of residence, the United States, nor the king’s brother, Prince Andrew, Duke of York.

The kings stayed on the balcony for a total of 9 minutes, to see the tribute of three helicopter brigades that flew over the palace. Then they retired to a family lunch, or so it seemed, because two minutes later the two reappeared alone, much more smiling and relaxed, but to re-enter the rooms they had to call upon their pages to assist them with the tails of their cloaks.
