Coronation: Queen Camilla to be crowned with Queen Mary's Crown

Camilla, the Queen Consort, will not wear a crown featuring the controversial Koh-i-Noor, Buckingham Palace has said.

Instead, she will be crowned with Queen Mary's Crown, which has been taken out of the Tower of London to be resized for the 6th May Coronation.

It is thought to be the first time in "recent history" that an existing crown will be "recycled" for a coronation.

Diamonds from Queen Elizabeth II's jewellery will also be added.

Queen Mary's Crown was made in 1911 for King Charles III's great-grandmother Queen Mary of Teck for her Coronation alongside the Coronation of her husband King George V.

How pathetic.

In related news, the Maryland House of Delegates has introduced a bill to re-name the state "Camillaland."

The Koh-i-Noor is in the Queen Mother's Crown. It was given to the British after they annexed East Punjab in 1849 during the reign of the then 11-year-old Maharaja of the Sikh Empire Dileep Sikh. It belongs to the British. The Queen should have been crowned with that diamond. This woke nonsense has gone too far.
