King Charles may honour his late mother, Queen Elizabeth, with the date of his coronation. The 73-year-old monarch is likely to formally take the throne next year and with a date eyed late in the spring for the ceremony to take place, officials are considering organising the event for 2 June, the same date the late queen was officially coronated in 1953.
Stressing there was "no rush" to hold the ceremony yet, a source told The Sun newspaper: "There is an awful lot of planning still to do. "But it will be in May or June depending on what is going on in the world. "It potentially could happen on the anniversary of the Queen's coronation on June 2 — that is one thing that is naturally considered. "While the family remains in official royal mourning until next Monday nothing will be finalised very soon.
But everyone is aware that it must happen next year and May or June is the preferred time. " The service is likely to be "shorter, smaller, and less expensive" than the queen's coronation, but would include a celebration of her life.
And though most of the traditional aspects of the ceremony are likely to stay in place, it is believed the king wants to celebrate and "protect the diversity" of the UK by inviting members of different faiths to be part of the congregation.
