Everything You Need To Know About King Charles' Coronation

queen elizabeth king charles coronation

Even before living in London in 2019, where I spent my weekends exploring gardens and eating every pack of Jaffa Cakes I could get my hands on, I was intrigued by the Royal Family and British culture. (A big part of that was probably because my sister and I got to camp out in the living room for both Royal weddings, waking up to homemade tea and scones, so thanks Mom!).

King Charles' Coronation is taking place on May 6, and since the late Queen Elizabeth II was crowned in 1953, a great deal of us have never seen a coronation in our lifetime. Here's everything you need to know about this weekend's ceremony.

What is the Kings coronation?

King Charles ascended to the throne when the Queen passed away in September of 2022. During the coronation ceremony, King Charles will swear to uphold the Church of England and the law. He'll also be anointed with holy oil, receive the Royal Orb and sceptres, and be crowned with St. Edward's Crown.

What time is the coronation of King Charles?

The service begins at 11 a.m. at Westminster Abbey in London, which is 6 a.m. EST. Even though the coronation is on Saturday, the festivities will last into Monday, which is a British public holiday.

Will King Charles coronation be televised in the US?

If you live stateside, you'll be able to watch the coronation on ABC News and Good Morning America from 5 to 10 a.m. EST on May 6.

Who is going to the coronation of King Charles III?

We're expecting to see the entire Royal family at King Charles' coronation, including William and Kate, Harry and Meghan, younger members of the family like Prince Louis, and extended cousins.

How long is a coronation ceremony?

The coronation ceremony is expected to last from 11 a.m. until 1 p.m. in England, which is 6 a.m. until 8 a.m. EST.

Who's performing at the coronation concert?

Gary Barlow, Howard Donald, and Mark Owen of Take That will appear at the ceremony, as well as American Idol judges Lionel Richie and Katy Perry. Andrea Bocelli and Sir Bryn Terfel will perform together, while Freya Ridings will be accompanied by Alexis Ffrench. We'll also see an official coronation choir, and Bette Midler is reported to be in attendance!

Recipes To Eat While You Watch King Charles' Coronation

Lemon Elderflower Waffles

This recipe was developed in honor of Harry and Meghan's Royal wedding in 2018 and they are the *perfect* spring brunch treat. The more edible flowers, the better. (via B+C)

Vegan Sausage Roles

I lived in London in 2019 and I cannot tell you how many sausage roles I consumed. Salty, crispy, and delicious, these are the ultimate comfort food. (via Dr. Oetker/B+C)

English Toffee

If you're craving something sweet during your watch party, break out this buttery, chocolatey treat to have with some tea.

Full English Breakfast Burritos

With sausage, potatoes, bacon, and eggs, this dish has all the flavor of a full English but it's way easier to eat. I definitely recommend checking out your local grocery store's international aisle to see what kinds of British baked beans they have. They'll take this recipe to the next level! (via B+C)

We're always happy to have an excuse to make some fun English recipes, like when we made these lemon elderflower waffles for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's wedding. This weekend, from June 2nd to the 5th, the UK is celebrating the Queen's Platinum Jubliee, in honor of Queen Elizabeth II serving for 70 years. These recipes, courtesy of cooking and baking company Dr. Oetker UK, feature both healthy hacks and sweet treats, and are the perfect way to say hello to summer.

What Is The Queen's Platinum Jubilee?

The Jubilee is a celebration of Queen Elizabeth II serving as the British monarch for 70 years. She's the first British monarch to reach this milestone!

When Is The Queen's Platinum Jubilee?

The Jubilee celebration will be held from June 2nd to June 5th, 2022.

Party Recipes For The Platinum Jubilee

Vegan Sausage Rolls

Sausage rolls are one of our favorite English recipes, and they make for a great quick breakfast when you're on the way to school or to work. This updated version swaps the meat and dairy for chickpeas and soy milk (which they call soya milk over in the UK) to make it vegan-friendly.

Cheese and Onion Pasties

Pasties generally feature meat, potatoes, and onions wrapped in puff pastry, but this recipe (which takes under an hour, by the way) keeps it simple with a mix of cheese, onions, pepper, and chives. Avoid any overflow by making sure not to stuff your pastry too full.

Eton Mess Cheesecake

This tasty dessert actually has multiple layers. The base features digestive biscuits, which you can find on your grocery store's international aisle, while the filling is full of white chocolate, cream cheese, and raspberry filling. Add some homemade meringue and raspberry coulis on top for good measure.

Vegan Quiche

Considering that quiche recipes require eggs, you might be surprised that you can make it without any animal byproducts. Tofu, nutritional yeast, and soy milk are the key to a fluffy quiche that everyone will love.

Gluten Free Scones

Scones make for an excellent addition to afternoon tea, breakfast, or as a late night snack. This gluten-free recipe makes things a bit more food sensitivity-friendly, but you can still feel free to top with cream cheese (or clotted cream if you can find it) and a nice dose of jam if you'd like. This Bonne Maman Four Fruits Preserves is our favorite.

Pimms Cake

The thing that makes this cake extra good is that after you take it out of the oven, you'll poke holes in the surface, drizzle the homemade Pimm's syrup overtop, and let it soak in. You can also mix in orange zest to make it extra fruity! Strawberry and orange slices, as well as mint leaves, add the finishing touch.

Jubilee Cupcakes

We're obsessed with these Union Jack cupcake liners, almost as much as we love the cupcakes themselves. They might look like regular yellow cupcakes, but cut out a circle in the center of each cake before you ice them and fill with raspberry jam for a fruity surprise.

Jam Roly Poly

Think of jam rolls like giant, fruity cinnamon rolls. After you make your dough and spread it over the baking sheet, spread your jam of choice (this recipe calls for raspberry, but we've also made it with orange marmalade), and bake for a half hour. Leave some extra room in case it expands.

Knickerbocker Glory Cake

Raspberries, mangos, and dark chocolate come together beautifully to create a cake that balances full, rich sweetness and fruity tang. Just don't forget the chocolate curls to go on top.

Drama lovers are living large thanks to The Summer I Turned Pretty, Sweet Magnolias, and now My Life With The Walter Boys season 2! The show (which is basically Friday Night Lights meets Dawson's Creek) spent some time at the number one spot on Netflix’s Global English Top 10 TV list (and joined the list in 88 other countries). Netflix renewed it for a sophomore season in December 2023, and the great news is that season 2 just finished filming!

Here's everything you need to know about My Life With the Walter Boys season 2 — and don't forget to watch our interview with the cast, too.

Is there going to be My Life With the Walter Boys season 2?

Netflix

Yes, there will be a My Life With the Walter Boys season 2! Netflix renewed the new TV show in December of 2023. The second season started filming in Calgary, Canada on August 14, 2024. Showrunner Melanie Halsall is returning for season 2, as is executive producer Ed Glauser. Becky Hartman Edwards will also serve as an EP.

While there's no book for My Life With the Walter Boys season 2, author Ali Novak revealed her upcoming sequel book won't influence the show, saying “none of the content that I am currently writing will be in the second season. They’ve just taken different directions. Still all the same characters that we love.”

The season recently wrapped in November 2024, and the cast spilled on their post-shoot plans. “We have our apartments for a little bit afterwards, so we’re definitely going to stick around,” star Asbhy Gentry tells TUDUM. The cast also talked about visiting Calgary Zoo, renting bikes, and heading to Banff (in Alberta, Canada), but was distraught when they learned their favorite dessert place had closed its doors. Thankfully, a new place called Cloud Naan came to the rescue. “It’s like Cloud Nine, but with naan,” Ashby says. Now I'm craving naan!

When is the My Life With the Walter Boys season 2 release date?

Netflix

We don't have an official release date for My Life With the Walter Boys season 2 yet, but we know it's coming in 2025. Considering season 1, which started streaming in December of 2023, premiered a little over a year after filming ended, it's safe to assume we'll get another December release.

“Season 2 is bigger and better,” creator Melanie Halsall tells TUDUM. “We’ve got massive set pieces in each episode, and the stories are more intricate. We found our feet with our characters, [and] the actors really understand their characters now. When I was coming back, I was excited to start shooting again because I knew we had great stories to tell.”

Who's in the My Life With the Walter Boys season 2 cast?

Netflix

Nikki Rodriguez, Noah LaLonde, and Ashby Gentry return as Jackie, Cole, and Alex respectively. We'll see other cast members like Marc Blucas, Johnny Link, Corey Fogelmanis, Connor Stanhope, Dean Petriw, Alix West Lefler, Lennix James, and Sarah Rafferty! Natalie Sharp, Carson MacCormac, Janet Kidder, Riele Downs, and Jake Manley are joining the cast.

What has the cast said about their time on the show?

Netflix

The My Life With the Walter Boys cast has loved their time on the show! When the first season dropped, Nikki Rodriguez posted a selfie with Noah LaLonde and Ashby Gentry with the caption "Cheers to the best time of my life."

"NUMBER ONE IN THE WORLD," Ashby said in his own Instagram post when the show hit the streaming platform's top spot. "GRATEFUL IS AN UNDERSTATEMENT."

During our own interview with the main trio, they talked about how quickly the bonded on set. "We got deep," Noah told me over Zoom.

"Nothing says bonding like goofing off," Ashby said. "I think it's easy to become a family when you include a little bit of that."

"There's so many topics that the show covers," Nikki added. "Love, loss, grief, family, and chosen family, and I feel like those are all topics we've all experienced and can connect to."

Who does Jackie end up with in My Life with the Walter Brothers in the books?

Netflix

In the My Life With the Walter Boys books, Alex and Jackie agree to just be friends after she confesses her feelings to Cole, who then confesses his own feelings in the pouring rain (dreamy!!). In the final episode of the TV show, Jackie confronts Cole after he glued her sister's broken teapot back together, and the two end up kissing. But then Cole finds Jackie has run back to New York City, leaving nothing but an "I'm sorry" note behind.

Break out your basketball jerseys because the Tree Hill Ravens are coming back! Multiple sources have toldVariety that Netflix will develop a sequel series to the beloved CW drama, which ran from 2003-2012. While the series hasn't officially been greenlit yet, multiple series stars have admitted they'd love to have a One Tree Hill reunion and make another installment of the show.

"I just can't see a world where something won't happen," Chad Michael Murray told E! News. "Something will happen. Whether we get everybody together and do a live reading of the show, or we create a new fictional future episode, I don't know what it will be."

"We’re all on board, we’re all friends, it would be the most fun show anybody has ever been on," Barbara Alyn Woods says in an Entertainment Tonight interview.

Here's everything to know about the One Tree Hillsequel series — including the stars rumored to return!

Who's returning to the One Tree Hill sequel?

One Tree Hill Sequel Cast

According to Variety, Sophia Bush and Hilarie Burton would return as Brooke Davis and Peyton Sawyer, respectively. Daneel Ackles would also return — and all three would serve as executive producers on the TV show alongside Warner Bros. Television, who was behind the original show.

When asked if he would return as Lucas Scott, Chad Michael Murray simply responded with “No clue." Considering previous reports suggested he had "no plans to return," this is promising news to me! He then added he hopes the sequel series “comes together for the fans.”

“I mean, this fandom that has grown, I mean, literally, I was just in Halifax a week ago and, sure enough, I’m running into 11, 12, 13-year-old kids who are in love with Tree Hill,” he continues. “They’re seeing it on Hulu and they’re going, ‘Oh, my gosh.’ It’s stood the test of time and I think to have some new stories, whatever iteration of the show that’s created, I want it for the fans.”

Will One Tree Hill have a season 10?

Warner Bros. Television

One Tree Hill Sequel Plot

One Tree Hill doesn't have a season 10, and it's unclear what kind of sequel this new One Tree Hill series would be. But it looks like star Hilarie Burton is confident the new series would be told through the female experience. "What has been really cool for [the entire cast and crew], they're all really proud of the work that we did back then too," she told Brit + Co in September. And so to see the public support this little show we made 20 years later, that's so special and it's so rare."

“Being able to work with a team of women and look at these stories [and] these characters through a female lens is something that — whether I was doing a reboot or a brand-new show or a different movie at this phase in my life, female teamwork is something that is so vital to me,” she adds in an interview with People. “It is the core of anything I've done that's successful...So I'm excited to be able to team up with people that I look up to, people that I love dearly.”

After the One Tree Hill finale featured all of our favorite characters' kids, I've always wanted to see a One Tree Hill next generation series that brings the kids into high school, which is something other fans have been wanting too!

One viral TikTok imagines an intro for a fictional Next Gen series starring Dylan O'Brien, Candice King, and Vanessa Marano. "Could you imagine this as a reboot with the kids though," one comment reads. "We can only dream."

Warner Bros. Television

And good news for OTH fans! Jana Kramer, who played Alex during the later seasons of the show, teased she thinks Peyton and Brooke "are coming back as moms."

"I had spoken to Hilarie about it, about Alex making an appearance when I knew about it," she tells People. "We had discussed it before the news broke...I think their intention is to bring back people that make sense. And Hilarie was like, 'I never got to meet Alex, so it'd be fun to have us meet,' and I'm like, 'I would love that. Sign me up.' So, we'll see. TBD."

Brooke having to deal with her kids' TikToks? Peyton thinking about the future of art and AI? Mouth leading the Tree Hill podcast empire? There is so much to dive into here. But all in all, One Tree Hill is one TV show that gives me so much hope, no matter how many times I watch it. And I know that bringing back our favorite found family is the perfect way to bring some of that hope right back into today's TV.

One Tree Hill also starred Chad Michael Murray, James Lafferty, Austin Nichols, Bethany Joy Lenz, Paul Johansson, Barbara Alyn Woods, Lee Norris, and Antwon Tanner. Check back here for the latest updates on the One Tree Hill reboot cast!
