Queen Elizabeth II's Funeral Exceeded King Charles III's Coronation by Millions

The coronation ceremony of King Charles III of Great Britain attracted 20 million Britons in front of television screens, which is 9 million fewer than the funeral of Queen Elizabeth II in September 2022. This was reported by The Guardian, citing data from the broadcast audience research council.

King Charles III's coronation became the most-watched event on British television in 2023, the newspaper emphasized.

It is worth noting that the coronation ceremony of 74-year-old King Charles III took place in London on Saturday, nearly eight months after the death of Queen Elizabeth II. The event was attended by 100 foreign leaders, leading British politicians, representatives from various churches, armed forces, Nobel Prize winners, and staff from social and charitable organizations as well as emergency services, among others.
