Prince Charles automatically became monarch after the Queen’s death on Thursday, but the procedures are now a constitutional formality to recognize his sovereignty.

In the UK on the morning of Saturday, September 10, a historic ceremony will take place at St. James’s Palace, where monarch Charles III will be officially proclaimed king, the BBC reports.

Flags flown at half-staff in mourning for the late Queen will be flown to a full flagpole after the Succession Council, which will be televised for the first time.

At the Council, which begins at 10:00, the King will make a personal statement about the death of the queen and swear to protect the Church of Scotland – after all, in Scotland there is a separation of powers between church and state . .

Among those present were Camilla, Charles’ wife, now Queen Consort, and the King’s son William, the new Prince of Wales.

The king’s first public proclamation will take place from the balcony of Friar Court at St James’s Palace in London at 11:00 am, a moment usually accompanied by a century-old extravaganza as trumpeters play fanfare and fireworks in Hyde Park and the Tower of London.

A wave of follow-up announcements will take place across Britain until Sunday. Following the proclamation, flags will again be flown at half-mast in mourning.

It was noted that Prince Charles, 73, automatically became monarch after the queen’s death on Thursday, but today’s procedures are a constitutional formality of recognizing his sovereignty.

Normally such ceremonies take place within 24 hours of the sovereign’s death, but late notice of the queen’s death meant they could not be arranged in time for Friday.

Remember that on the eve of the evening, the King of Britain made his first speech, and also held the first audience, welcoming the Prime Minister. Before that, King Charles III arrived at Buckingham Palace from Balmoral Castle, where 96-year-old Queen Elizabeth II died the day before.
