Prince William and Kate Middleton arrived late at the King Charles Coronation
Kate Middleton and Prince William arrived late for King Charles' coronation. The historic event, which was held last year on May 6, 2023, complicated logistics before history was written. According to People, the royal biographer Robert Hardman's book The Making of a King: King Charles III and the Modern Monarchy, King Charles and Queen Camilla arrived at Westminster Abbey too early for their coronation.
The royal couple reportedly arrived before attendants, such as Prince George. But there was another snag in the plan. In the book, Hardman wrote, "Unbeknownst to them, the Prince and Princess of Wales and their two younger children are a minute and a half late. The Waleses are supposed to arrive eight minutes ahead of the King and Queen. However, they will now follow them."
The royal biographer wrote that the audience inside the abbey was unaware that an unpleasant incident was developing outside while King Charles and the Queen were in their coach. Hardman then recounted a lip reader's translation of what King Charles stated in footage captured by a Sky News camera, writing, "We can never be on time. There is always something. This is boring."
The author notes that different sources reach various opinions on the cause of the incident. Some claimed that Prince William and Princess Kate Middlton's decision to film a coronation video added precious seconds to their timetable. The Prince and Princess of Wales entourage surmised that because the King arrived at the abbey early, the Wales car was detained behind his cavalcade when it should have been ahead.
Prince William gave a health update on Kate Middleton
