King Charles' Coronation has descended into chaos after rehearsals for the historic occasion went significantly over schedule.

Queen Consort Camilla’s son has revealed the foods that she would have banned from the Coronation Day menu. Food critic Tom Parker Bowles discussed what sorts of dishes would be fit for a King and Queen on the big day when he appeared on The News Agents podcast.

They infamously stepped down as senior members of the British royal family in January 2020 and ever since, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s relationship with the monarch has been strained. So, the question of whether King Charles wants Meghan at his coronation remains.
Prince Edward has tried King Charles’ new “Coronation Quiche” as the recipe for the dish was officially revealed. The 59 year old royal - who was officially made Duke of Edinburgh on his birthday last month - joined The Great British Bake Off judge Dame Prue Leith in trying the official coronation pastry at a special Big Lunch at Westminster Abbey on Tuesday, attended by faith leaders from across the country.
“olive branch” to the estranged Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle.The monarch has prominently featured a photograph of the controversial Duke and Duchess of Sussex in his official coronation souvenir program. Markle’s appearance is raising eyebrows considering she’s infamously not attending the historic May 6 event.The fun family photo was actually snapped in Clarence Gardens in 2018 for Charles’ 70th birthday, which explains the absence of Harry and Meghan’s babes Princess Lilibet, 1, and Prince Archie, 3.Of course some social media watchdogs are cattily calling out the dated image.
King Charles and Queen Consort Camilla have personally chosen a “Coronation Quiche” recipe that includes an ingredient loved by A-list celebs - edamame beans.

Prince Harry will be supporting King Charles on the monarch’s big day – but several royal watchers believe the Duke of Sussex will be left out in the cold when he returns to his home country. On Wednesday, Buckingham Palace confirmed that the Duke of Sussex will attend his father’s coronation, ending months of speculation about whether the prince would be welcomed following the publication of his explosive memoir "Spare."
