THE King has awarded his sister Princess Anne a starring role at his upcoming Coronation.
The Princess Royal will feature in the procession as the Gold-Stick-inWaiting, a position historically handed to a person entrusted with the personal safety of the sovereign.
Anne will ride on horseback behind the new King and Queen after they are crowned at Westminster Abbey on May 6. As Charles and Camilla take the Gold State Coach back to Buckingham Palace, Anne will lead the larger procession of 6,000 armed services personnel.
The privilege dates back to the 15th century, when two officers, a Gold Stick and a Silver Stick, protected the monarch.
