The coronation of King Charles III took place on Saturday in London, bringing together royals and celebrities from around the world to witness the event.
Charles had been set to succeed the throne for more than 70 years and after the death of his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, in September, he immediately took over the role. Today's ceremony was the official celebration of his new title.
Thousands of people gathered outside of Westminster Abbey to watch the guests arrive — including Prince Harry (without his wife Meghan Markle) — and join in on the expensive spectacle.
While most Americans might not have the same understanding of the royal family (unless you’ve watched The Crown), the memes and tweets on the day of the coronation kept us entertained.
