Evening together before the coronation of King Charles III
Comparatively down-to-earth, the king spent his last night before the big day. Together with his wife Camilla, he enjoyed the last hours before the ceremony, reports the British portal mirror.co.uk. At Clarence House in London, the two treated themselves to an intimate dinner in a private circle and enjoyed the calm before the storm once again. Clarence Hosue is the official residence of the Prince of Wales, a title Charles held until his coronation.

Zara (Charles' niece) and Mike Tindall, on the other hand, celebrated a little more exuberantly at the same time and celebrated the evening together with Princes Andrew, Edward and Princess Anne in London, where they had dinner until 2 a.m. and then moved to Club Oswald.
After a quiet evening with Camilla: Charles III's coronation is underway
It is likely to be far less relaxed for the royals on Saturday during the coronation. Even before the big event, anti-royalists gathered at Buckingham Palace to demonstrate against the monarchy. The tense family dynamic with Charles' son Harry can also be guessed. After the rift with the royals, for example, he is not allowed on the official coronation photo.
