Also, the Duke of Kent was already then the Duke of Kent, having succeeded his father in 1942.
And he is the only peer who paid homage to The Queen who will possibly now pay homage to Charles III depending on whether that part of the ceremony is kept. I hope they don't limit the homage to just William but allow Charles' brothers and his mother's cousins to pay homage as well. But with Charles' smaller royal family I suspect that there will be a much more limited homage from royal peers.
I notice that The Duke of Norfolk was received by The King yesterday. I am sure that they were discussing the events for Saturday with the Accession Council, the subsequent Proclamations and The Queen's funeral but they may have touched on the coronation as The Duke of Norfolk, as Earl Marshal, is responsible for the preparations for all these events.
I do know that The Duke has the plans for the coronation on his computer which has been updated regularly e.g. earlier this week he would have updated the name of the UK's PM.
