Buckingham Palace’s official coronation program has been released and it features a sweet snapshot of King Charles III’s family. (74). Prince Harry (38) and Duchess Meghan (41) can also be seen, although the latter will not personally attend the ceremony.
The family portrait was taken by royal photographer Chris Jackson in the gardens of Clarence House to mark the monarch’s 70th birthday in 2018. As can be seen in “Mail Online”, among other things, it shows Charles with Prince George (9) on his lap, King’s wife Camilla (75) cuddling with Princess Charlotte (7), and Princess Kate (41) with the little prince Louis (3) in the arm. Behind the bench stands Prince William (40) next to his brother, who has put his arm around a laughing Meghan.
The official Coronation Program souvenir booklet, which is 84 pages and costs £20, is on sale now.
The ceremony will take place at Westminster Abbey in London on May 6th. Meghan received an invitation to the coronation but chose not to travel as she will be staying in California with her children Archie, who will be celebrating her fourth birthday on the same day, and Lilibet, who will turn two in June.
