King Charles III Marks Coronation Anniversary with Ocean-Themed Gala

Commemoration of the Second Coronation Day Marked by Screening of Marine Cinema - Marking the Second Anniversary of Coronation, Crowds Gather for Seaside Cinema Event

Get ready to dive in! After two years since his grand coronation at Westminster Abbey, King Charles III, age 76, marked the occasion with a glamorous event. On May 6, he graced the Royal Festival Hall in London for the premiere of the much-anticipated nature documentary "Ocean with David Attenborough".

Dressing sharp in a dapper black tuxedo and bow-tie, the monarch took the blue carpet (instead of the usual red one) in stride, the maritime vibe resonating with the film's theme.

Star-studded Affair

Joining forces with nature's most passionate ambassador, Sir David Attenborough, 98, were some of the biggest celebrities - Felicity Jones, Geri Halliwell-Horner, and Cara Delevingne (as reported by "People").

The documentary, initially set to stream on NatGeo, Disney+, and Hulu, promises to enlighten viewers on the vital role humanity must play in preserving the Earth's waters. King Charles III, longstanding advocate for sustainability and ocean conservation, has been raising awareness since 1970 regarding the alarming threats of oil and plastic pollution in our seas.

A Busy Jubilee Day

Prior to the ocean extravaganza, King Charles III held private meetings with dignitaries like Mary Simon, Governor General of Canada, and Ecuador's President Daniel Noboa. Queen Camilla, 77, also kept herself engaged in royal duties, attending VE Day commemorations at the Tower of London.

Reflecting on the Splendor

And to top it off, King Charles III and Queen Camilla, on the same day, unveiled their official coronation portraits at the National Gallery in London. Each painting showcased significant details from their coronation in 2023, adding another layer to the grandeur of their celebrations.

Internal sources reveal the King's portrait, painted by Peter Kuhfeld, portrays him in his naval uniform and state robes, commemorating his coronation procession at Westminster Abbey. Queen Camilla's portrait, created by Paul S. Benney, highlights her silk gown embellished with silver and gold embroidery, worn during their coronation.
