Following the crowning of King Charles III and Queen Camilla over the weekend, May 6 will be seared into the memory as the anniversary of Their Majesties’ Coronation.

The world watched as foreign royals, world leaders, and members of the British Royal Family gathered to witness the couple being crowned in spectacular fashion at Westminster Abbey.

Yet it is not the only major royal event to have taken place on May 6.

In fact, the date is deeply entwined with the history of the House of Windsor.

King Edward VII, one of King Charles’s ancestors, died on 6 May 1910 and his son, King George V, succeeded him.

Princess Margaret married Antony Armstrong-Jones in one of the most incredible royal weddings of all time.

Shortly before midnight on 6 May 1910, King Edward VII died after suffering several heart attacks earlier that day.

It brought an end to his nine-year reign, which was dwarfed by that of his history-making mother, Queen Victoria.

Edward VII was succeeded by his son, King George V, who was proclaimed king the following day.

‘I have lost my best friend and the best of fathers,’ George mused in his diary.

King George V, the great-grandfather of King Charles III, ruled until 20 January 1936.

He was initially succeeded by his eldest son, King Edward VIII, although he ultimately abdicated in favour of his brother, King George VI, in order to marry the American divorcee Wallis Simpson.

There were many firsts attributed to Princess Margaret’s wedding to Antony Armstrong-Jones (created Earl of Snowdon on the day) on 6 May 1960.

Not only was it the first time that a King’s daughter had married a 'commoner’ in 400 years, it was also the first ever royal wedding to be televised (300 million watched it from across the globe) and saw Margaret herself wearing a tiara that she had purchased, rather than one from the family collection.

Margaret wore a silk organza dress designed by Norman Hartnell, the royal couturier who had previously created the Queen’s wedding dress some 13 years earlier.

A relatively chic and simple design – with a v-neck and long sleeves – befitting Margaret’s petite stature, the gown nevertheless still featured 30 metres of fabric to make the full skirt.

The ceremony was attended by 2,000 people, including European royalty, politicians and the social set.

Margaret had eight bridesmaids, including her niece, Princess Anne, her goddaughter, Marilyn Wills and Annabel Rhodes, a cousin from her mother’s side of the family.

Armstrong-Jones’ best man was Dr. Roger Gilliatt, son of the Queen’s gynaecologist.

The Queen’s younger sister had kept her relationship with the society snapper a secret until the announcement of their engagement on 27 February 1960.

However, the marriage wasn’t to last. The couple divorced in 1978.

The Queen remained close with her sister and her family until her death.

Princess Margaret’s descendants, including Lady Sarah Chatto and Lady Margarita Armstrong-Jones, will attend the Coronation.
