FORGOTTEN HISTORY: Only working royals permitted on balcony during king charles coronation - Caught on Camera

Only those who are classed as 'working royals' will be allowed on the balcony at Buckingham Palace during the coronation of King Charles, according to reports.

Royal sources tell The Mirror that the monarch has taken the decision to celebrate the historic event alongside only his closest and most loyal family members, which in turn will illustrate his vision of a slimmed-down monarchy. The finale event on Saturday, May 6 will also include a spectacular flypast over the royal family’s HQ.

Detailed plans reported by the Mirror reveal how the King has chosen to say thanks for the nation alongside a select few royals who have dedicated their lives to public service, while also showing “the heartbeat and future of his family”. Charles and Camilla will travel from Westminster Abbey in the Gold State coach back to Buckingham Palace, joined in procession with the chosen group.
