King Charles and Queen Camilla hang with commoners for first time since coronation

They’re back – but this time, they’re not exactly getting the royal treatment as they did a few weeks ago.

In King Charles and Queen Camilla’s first joint public appearance since the coronation ceremony, the two visited Covent Garden on Wednesday to celebrate the 390th anniversary of St. Paul’s Church, also known as the Actors’ Church, according to The Mirror.

The pair met with local community members, as well as children from a nearby primary school, watching a puppet show on the church’s steps.

Once they made their way inside, the pair spoke with members of the Covent Garden Community Association, according to People, and Camilla also met with the church’s Drama for Healing group, which helps women who have experienced domestic abuse.

After visiting the church, they went to The Apple Market in Covent Garden, which is an arts and crafts market.

On the way, they greeted tourists, including some from Singapore and Canada, The Mirror reported.

At the fair, they stopped and talked to all of the stall owners and other local community members, according to People.

The couple then met with members of The Royal Ballet, The Royal Opera and the orchestra of the Royal Opera House – some of whom had performed at their coronation concert on May 7.

On May 6, Charles was officially crowned as king in a grand coronation ceremony at Westminster Abbey.

It marked the official transfer of power to the new monarch after the death of his mother, the late Queen Elizabeth II, who died at the age of 96 in September 2022.

The ceremony was one for the history books, as King Charles became the oldest king to be crowned at 74 years old.

Many members of the royal family were in attendance, including King Charles’ son, Prince Harry.

There has been some tension between the redhead royal and his family over the past few years, especially after the January release of his tell-all, bombshell memoir, “Spare.”

However, he made the trip overseas for the first time since the book’s release and came without his wife, Meghan Markle.

Prince Harry was seated in the third row, with part of his view unfortunately blocked by Princess Anne’s large hat with a red feather sticking out of it.

He was only in the United Kingdom for fewer than 24 hours, as he raced home to California to make it back in time for his son Archie’s fourth birthday.

The young couple just went through a traumatic ordeal this week, alleging that they had a “near catastrophic” car chase throughout Manhattan after Markle accepted the 2023 Women of Vision Award that was presented to her by Gloria Steinem.

Following the big coronation earlier this month, many in the royal family celebrated with a coronation concert on the grounds of Windsor Castle.

It was a star-studded event, with performances from Katy Perry, Lionel Richie and former Pussycat Doll Nicole Scherzinger.

During the event, Prince William also made an emotional speech to the crowd of 20,000 people, congratulating his father and paying tribute to the late queen.

“As my grandmother said, when she was crowned, coronations are a declaration of our hopes for the future, and I know she’s up there fondly keeping an eye on us, and she’d be a very proud mother,” William said.

He then went on to describe his father’s passion for service throughout the years.

“My father’s first words, on entering Westminster Abbey yesterday, were a pledge of service,” he said.

“It was a pledge to continue to serve, because for over 50 years, in every corner of the UK, across the Commonwealth, and around the world, he has dedicated himself to serve others, both current and future generations, and those whose memory must not be neglected.”
