Thousands of guests attended a Buckingham Palace garden party to celebrate the work of volunteers, military personnel and members of the public.
Eight thousand people were welcomed into the grounds for the event on Tuesday, where the Prince and Princess of Wales represented the King, alongside the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh.
Other members of the family including the Princess Royal were also pictured speaking to guests.
A 93-year-old guest told Prince William how she slept on the pavement for three nights to see his grandmother’s coronation.
Dame Elizabeth Watts, who has lived through the past three coronations, said: “I came to Elizabeth’s coronation and slept on the pavement for three nights.
“I had measles for George’s coronation when I was seven years old. Of course, there was no television then so I couldn’t watch it but we had an accumulator radio.”
Speaking about the King’s coronation, she said: “We watched the coronation at home, on Sunday we had a street party and on Monday I had to recuperate ready to come here.”
Dame Elizabeth added: “It means absolutely everything [to be at the garden party].”
She added that she was “so surprised” and was nominated by St John Ambulance Service for doing 79 years of voluntary service.
