King Charles III is not willing to let Queen Elizabeth II shine at his coronation, so he is forced to break this important royal protocol.
The date of the coronation of King Charles III, firstborn of the late Queen Elizabeth II, is getting closer and closer, and although it will be a coronation that will respect the traditions of the monarchy, the king wants to avoid looking similar to the coronation of his mother.
The king will be crowned at Westminster Abbey on May 6th with his wife, Queen Camilla Parker, and as usual they will use a special throne, considered the most valuable element of royalty.

This would be precisely the rule that the monarch wants to break, King Charles III plans to use a throne very different from previous coronations, changing the appearance of the throne used by his late mother, as he longs not to be overshadowed by her. In addition, he accepted the rule that allows each monarch to decide to have her own chair.
Among the details, it was known that King Charles III will be “seated on a raised dais“, and his wife Camilla Parker will be next to him, but “on a lower level, as designated by British tradition“.
