Prince and Princess of Wales release behind the scenes coronation day footage from Kensington Palace | UK News

The Prince and Princess of Wales have released behind the scenes footage from the day of the King’s coronation.

In a five-minute film published on their official YouTube channel, viewers get a glimpse of the Wales family getting ready for last weekend’s events.

The clip starts with a montage of the Royal Family meeting foreign dignitaries at Buckingham Palace and supporters camped out on the Mall the evening before the coronation.

Royal fans then get to see Prince Louis, five, and Princess Charlotte, eight, preparing to leave home at Kensington Palace on the morning of the service.

Prince William and his wife are also seen in their coronation robes before a black car pulls up to take them to Westminster Abbey.

There is footage from Windsor on Sunday, where the royal children, including Prince George, nine, are seen taking part in Scouts activities before heading to the royal box for the coronation concert.

The Prince of Wales is captured rehearsing for his speech, in which he said expressed his whole family’s “pride” in the King.
