Charles' coronation was held at London's Westminster Abbey on May 6. Charles and his wife were both crowned during the official ceremony, which was attended by roughly 2,000 people.

Prince Harry and Prince Andrew, the king's brother, were both in attendance despite their tensions with the royal family. 

Harry and Andrew, who are not working members of the royal family, were not seen in the official coronation photographs.

The Duke of Sussex arrived at Westminster Abbey alone as his wife, Meghan Markle, stayed at home in California with their kids, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.
