A crowd cheered on Saturday as David White, the Garter King of Arms, read out the official proclamation of Charles as Britain’s new King from a balcony above Londons’ St James’s Palace.

“Three cheers for Majesty the King,” the senior herald in England shouted from the balcony, prompting a response of “hip, hip, hurrah” from soldiers below.
