In a new behind-the-scenes documentary titled “Charles III \u2013 The Coronation Year,” King Charles shares a light-hearted moment with his son, Prince William, as they prepare for the elaborate coronation ceremony.<\/p>\n

The film, set to be released by the BBC, offers a unique glimpse into the royal family’s nervous anticipation leading up to the momentous event.<\/p>\n

During the rehearsals captured in the documentary, Prince William and King Charles share a rare public display of affection.<\/p>\n

The Prince of Wales can be seen practicing the ceremonial act of handing King Charles his stole royal, a symbolic cloth band representing the sacred nature of kingship.<\/p>\n

In a playful exchange, Prince William jokes about the fiddly catch of the stole royal, teasing that it might not go in smoothly on the day.<\/p>\n

King Charles responds with humor, remarking that his son doesn’t have sausage fingers like him.<\/p>\n

Their laughter fills the room, creating a heartwarming moment that will undoubtedly delight royal fans.<\/p>\n

Another lighthearted moment from the rehearsals involves Prince William practicing his pledge of allegiance to his father.<\/p>\n

The Prince of Wales playfully suggests placing a kiss on King Charles’ cheek, tickling his father’s face, and claiming that the left cheek is better.<\/p>\n

Their affectionate banter showcases the close bond between father and son.<\/p>\n

The documentary, which is set to air on Boxing Day, promises to offer viewers an exclusive look at previously unseen behind-the-scenes footage and interviews with key officials, family members, and senior royals.<\/p>\n

Spanning 90 minutes, the film will highlight significant events from King Charles’ first year on the throne following the passing of his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, in September 2022.<\/p>\n

Throughout the documentary, viewers will witness rare moments of reflection and emotion from the king.<\/p>\n

Cameras capture King Charles and Queen Camilla as they observe their three crowns being reworked to fit them, symbolizing the weight of their new roles.<\/p>\n

Additionally, the royal couple witnesses the meticulous embroidery of their ceremonial robes in preparation for the monumental event.<\/p>\n

In one amusing highlight, the Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby, is seen struggling with his lines during a rehearsal.<\/p>\n

In an interview, Welby candidly admits to having a memory comparable to that of a Spaniel, in other words, practically nonexistent.<\/p>\n

King Charles, finding humor in the situation, chuckles as the Archbishop seeks reference from his notes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
