To people who joined in the celebrations, the King said: "To know that we have your support and encouragement, and to witness your kindness expressed in so many different ways, has been the greatest possible Coronation gift."
King Charles added that he and his wife would now rededicate their lives to "serving the people of the United Kingdom, the Realms and Commonwealth".

King Charles added that he and his wife would now rededicate their lives to "serving the people of the United Kingdom, the Realms and
Commonwealth".
Music underpinned the entire celebration, in keeping with history. Each stage was marked by either a grand choral work, an ethereal motet, an extravagant organ composition or an evocative melody, all performed by some of the most accomplished singers and musicians in the world.
King Charles and Queen Camilla entered the abbey to the strains of "I was glad," the stirring coronation anthem written by Hubert Parry for the coronation of King Edward VII in 1902 and sung at all coronations since then.
Queen Camilla was a regal sight in ivory, silver and gold. But who was she wearing?
But the old was blended with the new; Charles had asked Andrew Lloyd Webber -- whose music is more familiar to audiences in the West End than congregations in Westminster Abbey -- to write a Coronation Anthem, "Make a Joyful Noise," which played after Camilla was enthroned.
Unsurprisingly, it was a British designer, Bruce Oldfield, who she has a longstanding relationship with. Simple, tailored and cut from Peau de Soie, a silk fabric with a dull luster finish, her coronation dress was more akin to a coat dress with an embroidered underskirt as opposed to a traditional dress.

The Duke of Sussex attended the coronation ceremony at Westminster Abbey on Saturday, sitting in the third row.
Prince Harry attended without his wife, Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, who reportedly stayed back in the US with their children on the account of Archie's fourth birthday.
Wearing a morning suit with his military medals, Harry arrived alongside his uncles, Prince Edward and Prince Andrew, and two of his cousins, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie.
The coronation marked the first time the prince publicly met members of his family since the release of his memoir, "Spare."
A balcony flypast
The weather did not favor King Charles -- and while crowds seemed unperturbed by the rain, it did alter plans for the traditional
Royal Air Force flypast. The display was formed only of helicopters and the colorful Red Arrows, and not the expected Typhoons, Spitfires, Hurricanes and Lancaster bombers. But crowds instead enjoyed not one but two appearances on the
balcony by the new King and Queen, who provided an encore after seemingly waving goodbye to supporters. That wrapped up an eventful day, which had drawn thousands onto London's streets.

CELEBRITIES WHO OWNS
PRIVATE PLANE
The Who’s Who Behind the Most Expensive Private Jets in the World.
1. Jim Carrey Model: Gulfstream V
Cost: $59 million*
Net Worth: $135 million*
Jim Carrey has the winning formula. He’s proved time and time again that he’s able to knock our socks off with his comedic timing, while also having enough scope for dramas like.
All of Jim’s hard work means that he’s able to afford to travel in style. The star has owned a Gulfstream V since around 2015, estimated at a value of $59 million.
Model: HU-16 Albatross
“Hemisphere Dancer”
Cost: $300,000*
Net Worth: $450 million
Jimmy Buffett is lucky enough to have not one, but several planes at his disposal, but his favorite is a 1954 Grumman HU-16 Albatross called the “Hemisphere Dancer.” While it’s not exactly a jet, the small plane was used by Jimmy for several years before it eventually went into retirement in 2003.
Now, airplane enthusiasts can go and see the $300,000-dollar Albatross where it sits outside of his Margaritaville Cafe in Orlando. The Warner Music artist known for his laid-back, beachy vibe has a cult following that transcends fans of any single genre.
2. Jimmy Buffett3. Floyd Mayweather Model:
Gulfstream 650
Cost: $60 million*
Net Worth: $379 million*
Owning your own private jet is one thing, but branding it is something else entirely. Superstar boxing champ Floyd Mayweather splashed $60 million on a Gulfstream 650, calling it Air Mayweather. With huge padded seats upholstered in the finest leather, there’s plenty of room for Mayweather’s entire team.
The General Dynamics plane isn’t Mayweather’s only ridiculously expensive mode of transportation, either. The undefeated fighter has a Bugatti Veyron worth over $1 million and a Ferrari 458. When it comes to travel, Floyd goes all in. Considering his $379 million fortune, it’s just small change!
4. Jay-Z and Beyonce Model:Bombardier
Challenger 850 Learjet
Cost: $40 million*
Net Worth: $1.4 billion*
Jay-Z and Beyonce are practically royalty, so traveling in style is essential. With a combined net worth of over $1.4 billion, Bey and Jay decided to go for a Bombardier Challenger 850 Learjet. Not only is the plane fast, but it’s big, too.
The jet can accommodate up to 18 passengers, which is perfect considering just how many members of staff they have. According to The Travel, Beyonce bought the $40-million jet as a gift for Jay’s first Father’s Day in 2012 and they’ve used it continuously ever since.
5. Lewis Hamilton Model:Bombardier Challenger 605
Cost: $30 million*
Net Worth: $285 million*
Racing champ Lewis Hamilton is a very rich man for someone that’s just 35 years old, but that’s what happens when you win as many trophies as he has. Several years ago Hamilton owned a very flash $30million-dollar Bombardier Challenger 605 in red.
However, he sold it a few years after buying it in 2013 in a bid to live a more eco-friendly lifestyle. According to sources, the jet is now owned by a private jet company called SaxonAir in the UK. Not only did Hamilton ditch the plane, but he doesn’t eat meat now either.
Model: Gulfstream III
Cost: $37 million*
Net Worth: $1 billion*
Tyler Perry has made many a “Highest Paid” list in the entertainment industry, as the actor, director, and producer has built a billion-dollar franchise. Perry has spent some of his $1 billion fortune on private jets. Namely, Perry is the owner of a Gulfstream III, which cost him around $59 million.
The Gulfstream III has a conference hall and compact kitchen. The plane itself cost $37 million, but the additions and renovations packed on the extra $22 million. Perry is far from the only funnyman in Hollywood who loves Gulfstream. Actor Jim Carrey has a Gulfstream V that he’s quite fond of.
6.Tyler Perry7. Oprah Winfrey Model:Global Express XRS
Cost: $47 million*
Net Worth: $2.6-$4 million*
Billionaire media mogul Oprah Winfrey splurged on a Global Express XRS private jet. In a later interview, she said that “having [her] own airplane” was her “greatest luxury.” Looking at the XRS, she’s not kidding. The XRS is a large-cabin, long-range jet. Winfrey purchased her own plane after a harrowing incident in 1992.
She was accosted by a woman in an airport while waiting for her flight. The woman accused her of not “acting like she does on TV.” Winfrey said the woman’s aggressive demeanor shook her up, and, as soon as she had the money, she chose to splurge on private travel.
8. Morgan Freeman
Model: Cessna Citation
501
Cost: $345,000-$950,000*
Net Worth: $250 million*
Actor Morgan Freeman is one of the richest entertainers in Hollywood, and he, like his fellow movie magnate Harrison Ford, owns several planes. Freeman, who has his private pilot’s license, owns a Cessna Citation 501 (which he bought in 2005), as well as an Emivest SJ30 and a Cessna 414 twin-engine prop.
The Emivest is worth $7.5 million, and it is one of the fastest, longestrange business jets in the world. The Cessna 414 is worth less, priced at around $200,000-$250,000, though it’s still a great plane. Freeman’s Citation 501 was damaged in an accident in 2015, though not irreparably, so the actor was able to fix it up and get it back to the skies in no time.
9. Celine Dion
Model: Bombardier BD
700 Global Express
Cost: $42 million*
Net Worth: $601 million*
It’s no secret that Celine Dion likes the finer things in life. The talented songstress is a bonafide diva, so you’ll never catch her flying in coach. Celine travels solo in a Bombardier BD 700 Global Express – but don’t worry, there’s plenty of room for her entourage.
Not only are there several bathrooms, but a fully-functioning kitchen so attendants can whip up something better than a TV dinner from Walmart for Ms. Dion as she jets from one sold-out concert to another. Celine’s late husband and their children frequently used the $42million-dollar jet for vacations, too.
Model: Bombardier
Global 7500
Cost: $72 million*
Net Worth: $900 million*
At 23, most of us are trying to survive in a post-college world and make enough money to stay afloat. Kylie Jenner, on the other hand, was casually dropping $73 million on a Bombardier Global 7500 like it was no big deal.
The jet, dubbed Kylie Air, has custom pink lighting and can seat up to ten people. It also has a full-size double bed for taking an in-flight nap, along with a flat-screen TV and everything else you might expect to get for that huge price tag. With a net worth of $900 million, Kylie can afford it.
10. Kylie Jenner11. Dwayne “The Rock”
Johnson
Model: Gulfstream G650
Cost: $65 million*
Net Worth: $240 million*
Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson has the kind of life that most of us can only dream of, but it wasn’t always that way. After his football career ended, Johnson had just $7 to his name. Now, after a successful wrestling career and roles in numerous blockbusters, The Rock is worth over $240 million.
The Johnson family travels in their very own $65-million-dollar Gulfstream G650. The former WWE star frequently uses the plane. Although it’s not quite as big as some other private jets, it has everything he needs to work and play, including plenty of seats and a highly-polished table for business!
12. Cristiano Ronaldo
Model: Gulfstream 650
Cost: $60 million*
Net Worth: $375 million
Cristiano Ronaldo is hailed as one of the greatest soccer players of all time, but he’s just as famous for his life off the pitch. Ronaldo loves expensive cars, sprawling mansions, and designer clothing. He also loves private jets.
Ronaldo’s plane of choice is the ever-popular General Dynamics Gulfstream 650. The multi-millionaire shelled out around $60 million to get his very own set of wings. Not only is there enough space for his family with a capacity of 18 passengers, but it’s even got a custom black and blue paint job.
13. David and Victoria Beckham Model: Bombardier
Challenger 350
Cost: $18 million*
Net Worth: $1 billion*
So many celebrity couples don’t make it, but David and Victoria Beckham have proved that they’re both in it for the long haul. Victoria is a successful pop star turned fashion designer, while David is a true soccer legend. Combined, they have a net worth of around $1 billion.
Of course, the glam life of the Beckham’s wouldn’t be complete without their own plane. Victoria and David opted to buy an $18-million-dollar Bombardier Challenger 350, so they can travel in style alongside their four children, Romeo, Harper, Cruz, and Brooklyn.
