Here's a look at the royal family members who attended King Charles III's coronation and accompanying festivities.
King Charles III's coronation took place at Westminster Abbey in London, England, and formalized his role as the head of the Church of England and marked the transfer of his title and powers. It was also the official moment he was crowned king. Here's a look at the royals and celebrities who were on hand.
King Charles wass crowned with the St Edward's Crown from the 17th century, which weighs nearly five pounds, has a solid gold frame and 444 stones.
Meanwhile, his wife, Camilla Parker Bowles, was anointed and crowned as queen. Camilla is the first divorcee to be crowned, and the coronation invitation that was released in April made headlines when it referred to her as Queen Camilla for the first time. Until then, she was described as queen consort.
Although the actual anointment during the coronation ceremony was not broadcast publicly, plenty of special programming and footage from the ceremony is available to watch on CBS and Paramount+. Audiences will also be able to view coverage on CBS News, including the concert featuring Katy Perry and Lionel Richie on Sunday, May 7. Additionally, others can watch the coronation online on these streaming platforms.
