One of the biggest royal events of 2023 will be King Charles’s coronation on May 6, 2023. On the first Saturday in May, King Charles III will be crowned alongside Camilla, Queen Consort in a ceremony at Westminster Abbey conducted by the Archbishop of Canterbury.

Royalty from around the world is expected to be in attendance. Here’s who has confirmed their attendance at the coronation thus far:

British royals

Though Buckingham Palace has not officially confirmed the list of royals who will be at coronation, likely, the entirety of the British royal family will be there. That includes Charles’s three siblings, Princess Anne, Prince Andrew, and Prince Edward, along with his son, Prince William, and daughter-in-law Catherine, Princess of Wales.

Prince Harry will attend, but Meghan, Duchess of Sussex will not. The Palace said in mid-April they are “pleased to confirm that The Duke of Sussex will attend the Coronation Service at Westminster Abbey on May 6th. The Duchess of Sussex will remain in California with Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.”

Monaco

Prince Albert and Princess Charlene were the first foreign royals to say they will be at the coronation. Albert told People, “I’m certain that it’s going to be an incredible ceremony and a very moving one. We’ve maintained contact since His Majesty became King, but I haven’t talked to him personally since the Queen’s funeral. I’m certain His Majesty will add his own ‘personal touches’ to the ceremonies. But what those will be, I’m sure I don’t know.”

Japan

Japan’s Crown Prince Akishino and Crown Princess Kiko will attend the coronation, the Imperial Household confirmed in early April. The Prince and Princess will stay at Claridge’s, a luxury hotel in Mayfair. King Charles attended Akishino’s father Emperor Naruhito’s enthronement ceremony when he ascended to the Chrysanthemum Throne in 2019, and when Emperor Akihito ascended to the throne in 1990.

Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary will represent the Danish royal family at King Charles’s coronation. Queen Margrethe, who was close with the late Queen Elizabeth, will not attend.

King Tuheitia and his wife, Makau Ariki Atawhai, will attend the coronation with the New Zealand delegation. “Our respective monarchies are enduring institutions that share a common commitment to stability and continuity and unity for all peoples,” Kingitanga (the Māori King Movement) chief of staff Archdeacon Ngira Simmonds said. “The Kingitanga will continue to hold the Crown accountable for its role as a partner to Te Tiriti o Waitangi.” (The Te Tiriti o Waitangi is New Zealand’s founding treaty, an agreement between Māori chiefs and the British Crown. And, Aotearoa is the Māori language name for New Zealand.)

Those are the names of the Royals and Heads of State who attended Charles’ Coronation.  Do you seriously think that all of those people attended because they LIKE Charles?  Or, because they support his Coronation?    IF you have any doubts, watch what happens during the Coronation when Charles passes by them in processional.   Hardly anyone bowed or even shiled as he passed. Very Few people even seemed to acknowledge him.
