Celebrations to mark the King and Queen’s Coronation have begun in Scotland with a people’s procession through the streets of Edinburgh.The nation saw Charles and Camilla crowned just eight weeks ago during an ancient ceremony where the monarch gave a pledge to “serve”. Now a service of thanksgiving and dedication for the King and Queen will take place at St Giles’ Cathedral in the Scottish capital, where the monarch will be presented with the Honours of Scotland, the country’s crown jewels.The Honours of Scotland are the oldest Crown Jewels in Britain and have been present at many of the major royal ceremonial events over the past five centuries.

Kate Middleton and Prince William showed a rare public display of affection when she briefly tapped him on the bum, as they joined King Charles and Queen Camilla in Scotland. The King and Queen were presented with the Scottish crown jewels in a huge service today, which has been referred to by some royal watchers as the "second Coronation." Kate, who was a vision in a beautiful blue ensemble, raised some eyebrows during the ceremony when, despite the formality of the occasion she appeared to show off her cheeky side by tapping her husband on the behind and they whispering something in his ear.

"It’s not rain, it’s next year’s whisky," was one soggy person's take on the downpours at the annual garden party at the Palace of Holyroodhouse in Edinburgh. Heavy rain lashed down in the gardens on Tuesday, 4 July, as 8,000 guests gathered to meet King Charles and Queen Camilla as well as Anne, the Princess Royal.

King Charles is visiting Scotland this week as celebrations take place in order to honour the new British sovereign.

Ever since his reign began last September, King Charles has introduced a handful of new modern proposals, but certainly nothing that has shaken the monarchy to its core. The most significant of these changes was to make both The Princess Royal and The Duke of Edinburgh Counsellors of State - thereby removing the need for Prince Andrew or Prince Harry to have to step in if the King was ever abroad or otherwise incapacitated.This approach of not drastically shifting how the Firm operates is something that former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond feels is entirely to the Monarch's credit.

Trooping the Colour's pomp and ceremony seemed to be a little too lengthy for one young royal, as Princess Charlotte appeared to get impatient during the event. Charlotte, eight, was one of the important guests at Saturday's occasion, but according to the Daily Star a lip reading expert spotted her asking questions about when it would be over.

Welp, he’s done it again!
