Accompanying the King and Queen were several pages of honor, including a family member of Camilla's. His Majesty was accompanied by Lord Oliver CH Mundy, son of the Marquess of CH Mundy, also known as director David Rock Savage, and by Nicholas Barkley, grandson of Sarah Tron, one of the Queen's companions. Charles Van Cutsem, the son of H and Rose Van Cutsem, was a part of the royal party, as was Ralph Toh, the son of one of Charles' godsons.
William Kzk and Arthur Elliot, the Queen's pages and the sons of Ben Elliot and Camilla's great-niece, accompanied the monarch. It's worth noting that Nicholas, Lord Oliver, Ralph, and Arthur all previously served as pages of honor at the King and Queen's coronation in May.
There was talk in the House of Lords about stripping titles from non-royals living abroad and their children, which may affect Meghan and Harry's children despite the fact that Camilla's grandchild was involved in the big event. As for the King's opinion on the situation, he had only this to say: "It's only a matter of time."
King Charles II announced Mr. Rishi Sunak's proposed legislation for the coming year at the state opening of Parliament. Cigarette bans, more drilling in the North Sea, and a charge on electronic cigarettes are all on the list. The king also declared his intention to ban "drip pricing," a method of charging clients without their knowledge.
The state opening of Parliament was particularly significant because it gave the Prime Minister an opportunity to speak directly to the British people before the expected general election next year.
King Charles II also gave his sister a prominent role in his speech to Parliament at its first session. His older sister, Queen Anne, was named his bodyguard for the ceremony, and she accompanied him into the House of Lords. This marked the first time she has accompanied a monarch since 1985 when she joined her late mother. Anne's position as "gold stick in waiting," under Queen Elizabeth, is a tribute to her years of devoted loyalty to her brother, King Charles. Grant Harold, who served as King Charles's butler for seven years, claims that this decision highlights the monarchy's personal touch.
