When Will Kate Middleton's Modest Coronation As Queen Happen?

Kate Middleton's coronation will happen after her husband takes over the throne.

The Duchess of Cambridge will have her own coronation once Prince William becomes the new king. However, the ceremony will not be as grand as the Duke of Cambridge's. It will be modest and will be a "solemn religious ceremony." This practice has remained unvaried in over a thousand years already.

According to Alice Scarsi, a journalist from Daily Express, Middleton's coronation ceremony will take place months after the new monarch's accession. This usually happens at the end of the mourning period honoring the previous head of state.

Prior to becoming Prince William's queen consort, Middleton will inherit Princess Diana and Camilla Parker Bowles' titles. Prince William will be the new Prince of Wales when Prince Charles becomes the king. So, Middleton will be the new Princess of Wales. In addition, the couple will be the new Duke and Duchess of Cornwall.

Meanwhile, the royals are enjoying their summer break. Last week, Prince William and Middleton visited Queen Elizabeth II in Balmoral. During their stay, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge took Prince George to grouse hunting which irked the netizens who didn't support the royal tradition as it involves killing animals.

"I just read a news article that said Prince George was taken to his first grouse shoot while staying a Balmoral. If that's the case, it makes me feel sad & angry that he's going to grow up without any empathy for animals," Michelle P agreed.

Last Sunday, Middleton was also spotted with the Queen on the same vehicle as they make their way into the church. For the said sighting, the duchess borrowed Her Majesty's pearl drop earrings and channeled Princess Diana in her wardrobe.

In related news, Markle is spending her first summer as a royal. When Middleton was at Markle's place, she had a more jam-packed schedule. However, royal expert Richard Fitzwilliams said that people should not look at the statistics but on what they do.

"It's not numbers so much as it is the actual effect of what they do. I mean statistics are always tricky, the point is the commitment," he said. "There's no question that she [Markle] will be an extremely active charitable ambassador."
