Coronation of King Charles: Top 5 viral moments

The coronation of King Charles officially concluded Saturday, beginning a new reign of the monarchy.

The coronation, which was just one element of the three-day celebratory weekend, was full of viral moments.

Princess Anne Blocks Prince Harry During Coronation

Despite the palpable friction among the royal family, Prince Harry did show up to support his father, King Charles. As a non-working member of the royal family, Harry was not allowed to wear his military garb, although his medals were adorned on his suit.

Harry was seated behind his aunt and uncle: Prince Edward, Duke of Kent and Anne, Princess Royal. Keen viewers noticed that Harry's view was partially obstructed, due to Anne's ensemble, which featured a bright red feather sticking out of her traditional bicorn hat.

Social media erupted in hysterics, noticing what they believed to be a strategic move to block Harry.

One person wrote on Twitter, "The Princess Anne's hat feather protecting Harry's privacy," referencing the prince's departure from the United Kingdom and separation from the royal family. 

Writer Kathryn Hall poked fun at the visual, writing, "Princess Anne deserves a medal for wearing that hat today."

Despite the commotion it caused online, Prince Harry and Princess Anne were seen enjoying a warm moment together inside Westminster Abbey.

Prince Louis' Antics

The shenanigans of Prince Louis, 5, continued as King Charles was crowned king.

Putting on his best behavior, the young prince had several lapses in composure, much to the delight of viewers.

Prior to their arrival at Westminster Abbey, Prince Louis and his siblings, Princess Charlotte, 8, and Prince George, 9, rode in a chariot with their parents, the Prince and Princess of Wales. 

Inside, Louis put on an adorable display of confusion, boredom and disdain.

We rarely see public displays of affection between members of the royal family, but after pledging his allegiance to his father, King Charles, Prince William gave the king a kiss on the cheek.

The moment came just after Prince William, kneeling and clutching his father's hands, recited, "I, William, Prince of Wales, pledge my loyalty to you and faith and truth I will bear unto you, as your liege man of life and limb. So help me God."

Before kissing King Charles, William stood up and touched his father's crown.
