Following the death of Queen Elizabeth II, Prince Charles, 73, is now officially the King of England.
Although Mr. Charles’s coronation code-named “Operation Golden Orb” will not be held in months, he became king immediately after the death of the queen and will be addressed as the King of the United Kingdom and the 14 Commonwealth Realms.
Ms. Elizabeth, 96, passed away on Thursday at the Balmoral estate after a brief health discomfort.
Part of Mr. Charles’s first schedule as King is the proclamation of his kingship at 10:00 a.m. on Friday.
He will after meet Prime Minister Liz Truss and other government officials afterwards. Two days after, he will take a tour of the UK.
