It’s been a year since King Charles’s coronation as the United Kingdom’s monarch. The day was brimming with pomp and pageantry, seemingly flawless. However, there was a moment that nearly unraveled King Charles, and it involved Princess Catherine and Prince William.

Reportedly, the couple’s insistence on documenting the event caused a major hiccup. As they arrived at Westminster Abbey, Catherine issued a concerned warning to her husband. Cameras captured the moment as the couple exchanged words, with Catherine reminding William to mind the gown.

Thankfully, there were no apparent issues during the procession or the rest of the coronation ceremony. However, one mysterious detail caught the attention of royal fans when the official coronation photos were released.

Royal expert Daniela Elser pointed out that the couple’s desire to document the day might have caused the delay. William and Catherine, wanting to capture moments for Instagram, may have added precious seconds to their schedule, making them late.

Originally set to arrive 8 minutes ahead of King Charles and Camila, the couple ended up arriving precisely 8 minutes later, disrupting the carefully planned order of events. This caused them to enter Westminster Abbey after the monarch, a deviation from the expected protocol.

Elser suggests that the couple may have thought their participation in the day would enhance their brand. They featured prominently in self-promoting clips on Instagram, garnering millions of views and likes. Consequently, there was a frantic rewriting of the running order to accommodate the delay.

In the end, it appeared that Catherine’s attire for the occasion stole the spotlight. Her McQueen dress, adorned with intricate embroidery representing the four nations, paired with a Jess Collette and Alexander McQueen headpiece, captivated onlookers. The removal of her cape for the official coronation photos revealed a stunning neckline, adorned with the George V 6 festoon necklace.

Despite the behind-the-scenes drama, the coronation proceeded smoothly, leaving a lasting impression on those who witnessed it.
