Harry and Meghan’s wedding in 2018 drew in a peak audience of 17.9 million, while the funeral of the late Queen Elizabeth II was seen by a huge peak audience of 28 million. The viewing figures included 13.4million people tuning in to the ceremony on BBC One, 3.6million on ITV and 1.5million on BBC Two.
The audience peaked at 20.4 million just after midday, when the new King was crowned, according to ratings from the research organisation BARB. The ceremony on Saturday attracted more viewers than the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s big day, but failed to top the dizzy heights of the Queen’s funeral’s viewing figures. The Coronation of King Charles III was watched by more viewers than Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s wedding. Some of their closest advisors took part in the couple’s procession into the Abbey itself. Meanwhile, members of the King’s household included Jo Churchill, Vice-Chamberlain of the Household, Lieutenant Colonel Stephen Segrave, Secretary of the Central Chancery of the Orders of Knighthood, and Marcus Jones, Treasurer of the Household.
