Charles’ heartwarming words to William as he kisses father during emotional moment

King Charles' heartwarming words to his son, Prince William, after he kissed his cheek in an emotional moment during the Coronation has been revealed.

King Charles, 74, has been crowned the nation’s monarch today in Westminster Abbey in a two hour ceremony.

Charles became the 40th reigning sovereign to be crowned at the abbey, the nation’s coronation church since 1066, as Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby placed St Edward’s Crown on his head.

In a touching moment, William pledged himself to his father the King, kissing him on the cheek and touching St Edward’s Crown.

As William knelt before Charles, who held his son’s hand between his palms, he said: “I, William, Prince of Wales, pledge my loyalty to you and faith and truth I will bear unto you, as your liege man of life and limb. So help me God.”

Charles appeared moved as he nodded to his son, and according to Mail Online, said "amen" and "thank you William".

Charles' younger son, Prince Harry, was among the congregation, sitting two rows behind his brother with other members of the royal family, and he was seen intently watching the crowning.

When the congregation was invited to pay homage to the new monarch, Harry was seen, along with the other royals around him, speaking the words: “God save King Charles. Long live King Charles. May the King live forever.”


After being crowned, the King and Queen left Westminster Abbey in the Gold State Coach shortly after 1pm for a procession back to Buckingham Palace.

Thousands of royal fans braved the rain to line the procession route through central London and Charles and Camilla had wide smiles on their faces as they waved at the crowds.

Kate and William and their children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, also waved as they went past in their carriage, as did the Duchess of Edinburgh and her daughter Lady Louise Windsor.



The Princess Royal, Princess Anne, followed behind on horseback in her role as Gold Stick and Colonel The Blues and Royals (Royal Horse Guards and 1S Dragoons).

Meanwhile, Prince Harry quickly got into a car with a blank expression on his face after leaving Westminster Abbey.

Harry’s vehicle, which had blacked out windows, followed the coronation procession back towards Buckingham Palace.

Meanwhile, Prince Andrew, sat silently in a car alongside his younger daughter, Princess Eugenie, who is pregnant with her second child.
