  • Patrons can see all 4 parts of my Coronation History series today, at: / lindsayholiday
    The coronation of King Charles III and Queen Consort Camilla is unique in modern times. The United Kingdom is the only monarchy in Europe which still holds coronations. Today let’s explore the 1000 year evolution of the English and British coronation. From the crown stolen from Edward the Confessors grave, to Henry VIII and Catherine of Aragon’s lavish coronation clothes and feast. From making copies of the throne and regalia for the crowning of co-monarchs William and Mary to the outrage of putting Elizabeth II’s coronation on gasp television. Then I’ll walk you through the rituals, regalia, relics and everything else we are likely to see during the coronation of Charles III and Camilla.

    It’s not going to be the Grand Occasion of Elizabeth, as Charles has done away with a lot of the original ceremony and only 2,000 guests compared to his mothers 10,000 at the Abbey. The Anointing will not be televised and lots of Dukes and Earls weren’t invited. No ceremonial Robes for the ones invited, just lounge suits and dresses for the ladies. So a lot of people will be disappointed at the cut backs Charles has made.

    I heard that the king wants to be the " guardian of all faith" ...not the exact words but something like it...and I understand that he wants to make changes and that is ok,but I think the best way to honor his position is to mantain the coronation as it is, because this is exactly what the have preserve o er the decades and is the simbol center of the reason why his family exists and his country.....
    Although there are so many things happening arround him and he seems to be giving messages out there, he will end up destroying everything that was built just because he wants it his way. So I think he is as spoiled as his junger son amd I just can't believe he did not understand his lete ancestors legacy in 60 years inside the family and institution.
    He will reapeat the other King's Charles mistakes it seems that the names are condem to repeat the late ones.
    Fotunately William comes from the "Willian the conqueror" and has got more powerfull aura as the name
    But Charles all of the three have this sent of weakness and problematic energy.
    Personaly I think what happened with his first wife has a heavy karma and we know this king is more incline to other religions than the one he id suppose to be the head of atate.....this monarchy is falling to pices😢

      I think he was king in name.... As he was the king of Spain ... Making Mary not only Queen Mary 1st of England but Queen consort of Spain

      Philip was kinda king in name but not really. He was only given the title of king for Mary’s lifetime and he was unable to act without Mary’s approval in anything, and England was not required to aid Spain in any wars. I don’t think he was ever actually crowned. He was really only ever king _jure uxoris_ and isn’t really considered to have been an actual monarch in his own right. William and Mary were the only dual monarchs who both ruled in their own right. The title king was little more than a formality to get him to marry Mary, functionally and politically he was not king
