WATCH LIVE: King Charles III is formally proclaimed sovereign of all four cities that represent the four capitals of the United Kingdom.
The ceremony at St. James's Palace, a royal residence in London, is attended by the Accession Council, senior politicians and officials who advise the monarch. They will meet without Charles to proclaim him sovereign — officially confirming his title, King Charles III — before the king joins them to make a series of oaths and declarations.
After the ceremony, an official will read the proclamation aloud from a balcony at St. James's Palace. It will also be read out in the medieval City of London and at other locations across the U.K. At just eight years old, former Princess Elizabeth's face was printed on Canada’s twenty-dollar bill. As time went on, Queen Elizabeth II would cover more than a hundred pieces of currency across the world — the true meaning of world-famous. Story by LX News storyteller Peter Hull.
He also tried to overcome a reputation for aloofness in his first hours as monarch, spending time shaking hands with some of the thousands who came to leave flowers and pay tribute to the queen at the gates of Buckingham Palace. He was greeted with shouts of"Well done, Charlie!" and"God save the king!" One woman gave him a kiss on the cheek.
