Aristocrats at King Charles III's coronation have been asked to make way for hundreds of charity workers and ordinary Britons
in Westminster Abbey on Saturday will be an unusually eclectic group of people, a guest list that reflects the monarch’s drive to keep the institution relevant through diversity and a greater connection with ordinary Britons, even if that means quite a few aristocrats have been snubbed.
Among those expected to attend in person as the new king is anointed with holy oil will be pop star Lionel Richie, U.S. first lady Jill Biden, the king of Tonga, the magician Dynamo, French President Emmanuel Macron and Max Woosey, a teenage boy who camped in his garden for three years to raise money for charity.
