Preparations underway for coronation of King Charles the III.

Royal rehearsals for King Charles' Coronation: Monarch, Queen Camilla, William, Kate and their children all arrive at Westminster Abbey as they prepare for the big event

King Charles and Prince William led the Royal Family today in rehearsals for the Coronation at Westminster Abbey.


With just days to go until the historic event, His Majesty was pictured beaming outside the church in central London as he arrived with the Prince and Princess of Wales and their children Prince George, nine, Charlotte, eight, and Louis, five.


Princess Anne and Queen Consort Camilla were there to greet the Dean of Westminster and other church officials before they went inside. The royals were also joined by Prime Minister Rishi Sunak.


It comes after thousands of personnel from the Army, Royal Navy and Royal Air Force marched from Buckingham Palace to the Abbey in the early hours of this morning as they practiced for the big day on Saturday, May 6.


The Diamond Jubilee State Coach and Gold State Coach were also used in the full-scale rehearsal shortly after midnight.


Royal fans waited for more than three hours for the parade to make a return journey down the Mall.


And commuters heading home from London Waterloo were treated to extraordinary scenes as they saw some 6,000 soldiers march through the station on their way to the rehearsals.
