Around 2,000 people will get to attend the coronation of King Charles and Queen Camilla. Now that invitations have been sent out, confirmations of attendance have started to be announced. Here, Town & Country will keep a running list of those who will attend the coronation.
The British royal family
While it hasn’t been publicly confirmed, it’s guaranteed that members of the House of Windsor will be in attendance, including Charles’s sister, Princess Anne; his son, Prince William, and daughter-in-law Catherine, Princess of Wales. Prince George, his grandson, will be a page of honor at the coronation. His other son, Prince Harry, will attend, but Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, and their two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, will not be in attendance.
