Moment Camilla whispers inaudible instructions to Archbishop as he places crown on new Queen

Queen Camilla has officially been crowned at Westminster Abbey alongside her husband, King Charles III.

Shortly after the crowning of Charles, Camilla was presented with her own items of Regalia, including the ruby Consort’s Ring, last used by the Queen Mother in 1937.

During the moment, she whispered inaudible instructions to the Archbishop of Canterbury, as she struggled to keep the crown on her head.

She wears Queen Mary's Crown, and Queen Elizabeth II's Robe of State. She will later change into her own Robe of Estate, made with purple velvet, and embroidered with national emblems in gold.
