The royal family — including estranged member Prince Harry — came out in droves to celebrate the historic coronation of King Charles on Saturday. But only a select few of the royals were a part of the Buckingham Palace balcony pictures, a coveted photo spot after the ceremony ended.

Of course, Prince William and Kate Middleton were present, along with two of their children, Princess Charlotte, 8, and Prince Louis, 5.

Meanwhile, Anne, Princess Royal and sister to King Charles, was slightly hidden behind Kate.

Towards the end of the balcony on the left, the Duke of Edinburgh, Prince Edward — Charles' youngest brother — and his family were present. Edward stood in front of his 15-year-old son James, Earl of Wessex. They were next to Edward's 19-year-old daughter, Lady Louise Windsor, and the Duchess of Edinburgh, Sophie.

Behind Edward's family was Vice Admiral Sir Timothy Lawrence, Princess Anne's husband.

In between William and his father, Charles, were four young children, all Pages of Honor to Charles during the coronation: Lord Oliver Cholmondeley, Prince George, Nicholas Barclay, and Ralph Tollenmache.

Oliver's father, David, the Marquess of Cholmondeley, is King Charles' Lord-in-Waiting, according to Tatler.

Prince George, 9, is the oldest child of William and Kate. Nicholas Barclay, 13, and Ralph Tollenmache, 12, are the grandchildren of close friends of Charles and Camilla.

Next to Camilla are her four Pages of Honor, all grandchildren from her previous marriage to Andrew Parker Bowles, who was in attendance at the coronation.

Notably absent from the balcony are embattled Prince Andrew, Duke of York, who attended the coronation but was stripped of his royal duties and military titles in early 2022.

Prince Harry was also absent from the balcony. Buckingham Palace confirmed in April that he would attend the coronation without his wife Meghan Markle or their kids. While he reunited with some royal family members at the coronation, Harry kept his distance from William during the ceremony.
