And there’s always great chat before an event like this, has it gone too far one way? Has it gone too far the other way? And we always get it absolutely spot on. First Lady Jill Biden arrived to the ceremony in an elegant blue ensemble. Mrs Biden, who was sent as the States' representative, wore a Ralph Lauren skirt suit and accessorised with matching gloves and hair piece. And I think that in this coronation, yes, it is going to be royal and marvellous and mystical and spiritual and everything that you would expect it to be, but it will be modern as well. The First Lady was joined by her granddaughter Finnegan Biden who opted for a pale yellow cape dress with a matching floral headband. Leader of the House of Commons Penny Mordaunt became the first woman to carry and present the Jewelled Sword of Offering at the Coronation.

Discussing how she feels the ceremony fits into modern life, Ms Mordaunt added: “I think this is really important to the country. I think the monarchy survives and persists because it adapts and it changes and it’s always relevant. And I think that it’s an important moment for the country. I think the country is proud of the monarchy and the royal family and the service they play.

My Account

In a sentimental nod to Princess Diana, Kate wore her late mother-in-laws earring to the Coronation - previously worn to the BAFTA film awards four years ago. The Conservative MP caused a surprising stir in her bespoke cape dress, which was designed by London-based label Safiyaa. The commissioned piece was a deep teal hue described as 'Poseidon', in honour of her Portsmouth constituency. They provide stability, we saw that most profoundly last year. And they provide continuity and I think as far as how we’re known by the rest of the world, they’re a huge part of our story. The cape also included a subtle nod to the uniform of the Privy Councillors, with the embroidered gold fern motif donning her shoulders.
