ROYALS IN SHOCK! Catherine Issued Concerned Warning To William Amidst Ongoing Treatment From Cancer
Itās been one year since King Charlesās coronation as the United Kingdomās Monarch.
The day was full of pomp and pageantry and appeared to go off without a hitch. However, one moment almost made King Charles lose it, and it all had to do with Princess Katherine and Prince William.
Reportedly, the coupleās insistence on documenting the event caused a major snafu for the incoming Monarch.
On arriving at Westminster Abbey for the coronation of King Charles, the Prince and Princess of Wales could be seen exchanging words.
The Princess issued a concerned forward warning to her husband before they started the long walk into the Abbey. Cameras captured the moment when the couples lined up waiting for the procession to start, with Catherine turning to William and saying, āJust mind the gown.ā He reportedly replied with reassurance, saying, āDonāt worry, I got it.ā
Thankfully, it appeared that there were no hiccups with the robes during the procession or the rest of the coronation ceremony. However, one mysterious detail about the outfit sent Royal fans into a frenzy when the official coronation photos were finally released.
Royal expert Daniela Elser commented, āThe Waleses came close to turning the entire carefully orchestrated day on its head.ā She believes this element of Charlesās coronation was largely overlooked at the time. āThis came very close to truly buggering up the day,ā she added.
One possible reason for the snafu, according to Elser, was that William and Catherine wanted to do some Instagramming. She cites Royal biographer Robert Hardmanās remark that Charlesās trip to Westminster Abbey and the Golden State coach moved too fast; therefore, both Charles and Camilla arrived too early.
Although the congregation inside the Abbey didnāt know it, there was an awkward scene unfolding outside as the King and Queen remained in their coach. āItās an added layer of stress that the couples really do not want or need on a day like this,ā writes Elser.
The issue unfolding behind the scenes was that the couple was too far behind. Conflicting sources suggest that the Walesesā decision to make a coronation day video added precious seconds to their schedule and made them late.
William and Catherine were set to arrive 8 minutes ahead of King Charles and his wife Camilla at Westminster Abbey. Then, the couple and their children, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, were to enter the Abbey first, followed by Charles and Camilla. However, because the couple reportedly chose to Instagram the day, they arrived precisely 8 minutes later than the monarch.
āIt is unusual for the two most important arrivals at such a significant event and over such a well-trodden route to be so unpunctual,ā said Robert Hardman. Daniela Elser believes that they likely thought their participation in the day would elevate their brand. āThe result is some frantic rewriting of the running order,ā she writes.
Looking back, many appeared to assume that it was the running order of the coronation. The consensus was that Prince William walked behind his father during the ceremony in a supportive move.
According to Alistair Bruce, the Princess wore an additional cape over the top of the dress to protect it from the heavy mantle and chains sheās required to wear. Then, for the official coronation photos, she removed the cape, revealing an intricate v-shaped neckline, which showed off the stunning George V 6 festoon necklace, a gift to the late Queen Elizabeth in 1950.
