Ahead of King Charles III's coronation this weekend, celebrities including Joanna Lumley and Carol Vorderman have shared their favourite memories of the monarch
From members of the Royal Family attending a rehearsal in the capital to members of the Armed Forces conducting rehearsal processions under the cover of darkness, the countdown to King Charles III’s coronation is well and truly underway.
“He has always supported actors and the performing arts and music and culture,” she revealed. “He has always been a great patron. And for him, off his own back, to suddenly think of how he could best help the acting profession and all the backstage and everything that goes on, which has just hit a brick wall and been practically vanquished in this terrible year.”
“In the 80s, I had a habit of wearing white stilettos wherever I went, even though sometimes my job took me to places where white stilettos simply didn’t belong. “It was a real joy and an honour to be working with him,” he said. “We just got on like a house on fire. You’ve got someone from a council estate and someone from a royal estate that have the same interests about apprenticeships and heritage crafts.
“Another time, we sat together at the Safeway picnic concert in aid of the Prince’s Trust, where Diana Ross and Shirley Bassey performed, of whom he’s a great enthusiast. He loves modern music and was jiving along.”“The King is an adventurer at heart, he’s a great walker and he’s a great hiker. It’s always a privilege in my work life to introduce amazing people to the outdoors, but he doesn’t need to be introduced to the outdoors,” he said.
