Coronation: All royals to appear on Buckingham Palace balcony

The full list of Royals set to make an appearance on the balcony during the event has been revealed by Buckingham Palace insiders.

It is understood that 15 members of the family will turn out to watch a flyover to mark the occasion.

Included in the list is King Charles, Queen Camilla, William and Kate, along with children Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.

The Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh, Prince Edward and his wife Sophie will also appear, as will Princess Anne and her husband Vice Admiral Sir Tim Laurence, The Mirror reports.

The Duke of Kent, Princess Alexandra, and the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester will also be present on the balcony.

However, as only working members of the royal family will appear, there will be no place for Prince Harry, Meghan Markle or Prince Andrew.

A source told The Mirror: “The King has been very clear who he wants to represent the monarchy.

“There is little room for sentiment, this is a State occasion, not a family occasion and it is right that only the working members of the family are there at the big public moment.”

Invitations to the King’s Coronation, on Saturday, May 6, were sent out yesterday.
