One year into his reign, King Charles releases unseen footage of his Coronation.
It's hard to believe that it's already been a year since King Charles's historic Coronation. To celebrate this milestone, the Royal Family shared a special behind-the-scenes video, featuring never-before-seen clips. The video takes us back to May 6, 2023, from the sound of horses' hooves clip-clopping to the grand finale of Charles being enthroned on St Edward's chair. It was the first coronation since Queen Elizabeth's in 1953, making it a truly special occasion for the Royal Family.

In honor of the first anniversary of the coronation, a post on the Royal Family's official account on X invited everyone to revisit the momentous event at Westminster Abbey. The post also asked people to share their favorite memories from the weekend, which included a carriage procession through central London, a fly-past, a Royal Salute by 4,000 troops, a Coronation Concert at Windsor Castle, and a UK-wide volunteering initiative. It was truly a weekend to remember.

The video shared by the Royal Family gives us a glimpse into the preparations leading up to the coronation. We see Charles meeting with royal fans on the Mall the day before the ceremony, and Queen Camilla arriving at the Abbey in a beautiful horse-drawn coach. Inside the Abbey, we get to witness the crowning moment of Charles and Camilla, as well as other significant moments, such as a cockpit video from the Red Arrows and Prince William's heartfelt speech to his father.

The ceremony was attended by an impressive guest list, including presidents, monarchs, politicians, and celebrities, totaling 2,300 people. The video also features some clips that were not previously shown to the public. We hear Charles's words on the day, "I come not to be served, but to serve," as he wears a robe that was once worn by his grandfather, George VI. He also prays to be a blessing to all, regardless of their faith or beliefs.

In recent news, the King was seen out and about last week, marking his first public appearance since his cancer diagnosis. He visited the University College Hospital Macmillan Cancer Centre in London, where he spoke to patients and expressed his shock at being diagnosed with cancer. According to palace officials, Charles is responding well to his treatment, and it has been nearly three months since he first disclosed his illness.

As we look back on the first anniversary of the Coronation, we are reminded of the significance of the event and the hope that Charles brings to the nation. We are grateful for the behind-the-scenes footage that captures the joy and grandeur of the occasion, and we continue to pray for the King's health and recovery.
