King Charles, Camilla coronation photo blasted as ‘gender reveal’
Oh, baby.
The royal family’s official social media account shared a remarkable photo from Saturday’s coronation of King Charles III and Queen Camilla that is being compared to a gender reveal celebration.
“My fave part of coronation tradition: The royal gender reveal,” a Twitter user hilariously commented.
The stunning snap features the newly-crowned monarchs with their backs turned to watch the fly over from the balcony of Buckingham Palace.
The Royal Air Force’s Red Arrows lit up the foggy London sky with colors of red, white and blue smoke, although the red appeared pinkish.
Camilla, 75, and Charles, 74, donned their crowns and white fur robes as they viewed the show.
The pic was taken by Getty Images royal photographer Chris Jackson.
“Those planes need to eat less spicy food,” one Twitter user joked.
Another person expressed distaste for the photo, noting that Charles and Camilla’s coronation is shameful.
“You make me sick. May Diana haunt you uglies,” the Twitter user slammed.
The pair infamously engaged in an on-again/off-again affair for decades — while married to other people.
The queen married Andrew Parker Bowles in 1973, while Charles tied the knot with the late Princess Diana in 1981.
Diana died in a fiery car crash in Paris in 1997. She was just 36 years old when she passed away alongside friend Dodi Fayed.
Fans remembered Diana during Saturday’s coronation festivities.
“The real Queen of Great Britain will always be Diana #CharlesIII #Coronation,” one person penned alongside a slew of photos of the late Princess of Wales.
“The Queen we never had. What a sad sad story. The Queen of all our Hearts. #Coronation,” someone else declared.
Another user chimed in: “Princess Diana is the only real queen today and everyday.”
The historic crowning ceremony occurred at Westminster Abbey. The royal family returned to Buckingham Palace to wave to the public upon its conclusion.
Working royals, including Prince William, his wife, Kate Middleton, their kids George, Louis and Charlotte, as well as Prince Edward, his wife, Sophie, and Princess Anne joined the king and queen on the balcony.
Others who appeared on the mezzanine included the king’s Pages of Honor Lord Oliver Cholmondeley, Master Nicholas Barclay and Master Ralph Tollemache.
The queen’s pages of honor — Gus Lopes, Louis Lopes, Freddy Parker Bowles and Arthur Elliot — were also spotted on the veranda.
