“Yesterday meant so much to me, as I’m sure it did to so many watching. What a magical celebration for The King, The Queen, our country, and the Commonwealth,” the 33-year-old captioned an Instagram slideshow on Sunday, May 7, sharing her favorite snapshots from the historic event. “The day was such a reflection of dedication and service to our country. #coronation.”
The carousel began with a photo of Charles, 74, and Queen Camilla waving to onlookers from the balcony of Buckingham Palace following their crowning ceremony on Saturday, May 6. Other images showed the procession through the streets of London.
Eugenie also included two photos of Harry, 38, who stepped down from his senior royal duties with wife Meghan Markle in 2020. He stood behind her and husband Jack Brooksbank in his morning suit in one pic taken from inside Westminster Abbey. The second photo showed him walking in front of Eugenie’s sister, Princess Beatrice, and her husband, Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi.
