King Charles and Queen Camilla have been formally crowned the King and Queen of Britain in a historic Coronation ceremony today, May 6, with the royals now taking part in the Coronation Procession.

The historic Procession is taking the King, Queen and other senior royals from the Westminster Abbey back to Buckingham Palace, and will cover a 1.3-mile route.

The procession is led by the King and Queen in the Gold State Coach, closely followed by the Princess Royal Anne, Charles’ sister, riding on horseback as Colonel of the Blues and Royals and Gold Stick in Waiting.

In the last carriage of the Procession are the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester, and Princess Anne’s husband, Vice Admiral Sir Tim Laurence.
