People across the country have taken to social media to give King Charles III‘s coronation the meme treatment.
Now that King and Queen Camilla have been officially crowned, internet users rushed to highlight certain moments in the historic ceremony.
Social media users engaged in a battle of wits, creating bizarre and hilarious memes featuring celebrity guests like Nick Cave, dogs dressed in royal regalia, and photos of Prince Louis.
Meme makers reimagined the moment when the king opened a book while on the throne – jokingly flipping through a copy of Prince Harry’s super autobiography Spare.
Twitter users even began to call the coronation ‘WezzyAbsDay’, referring to its celebration at Westminster Abbey, and the ‘Corry Nash’ – harking back to the Platinum Jubilee, which was dubbed ‘the Platty Jubes’.
They also laughed at how quintessentially British the coronation celebrations were, joked about tea, the king’s new title, and hung Union Jack-style flags around their homes.
