Excitement flooded the gathering the moment King Charles III and Queen Camilla stepped out onto the balcony of Buckingham Palace. King Charles III gave a spirited wave as he looked across the crowd of people screaming with happiness.
Masses gathered here are wrathfully waving their union jacks towards the balcony of Buckingham Palace. The cheering of the crowd is almost entirely drowned out, but the sound of the aircraft whizzing over the Buckingham Palace.
Earlier, Charles III and Camilla are crowned King and Queen at Westminster Abbey in a ceremony full of music and symbolism.
