I learned from interviews with officials that arrangements are underway for Prince Akishino and his wife to attend the coronation ceremony of King Charles of England in May this year.
The coronation of King Charles will take place on May 6th at Westminster Abbey in London.
According to officials, an invitation was received from the British side by the 27th, and coordination is underway between the government and the Imperial Household Agency for Prince Akishino and his wife to attend.
The Imperial Family and the British royal family have had a close relationship since ancient times, with the Emperor Showa attending the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II in 1953 as Emperor Showa's representative. .
Her Majesties the Emperor and Empress attended Queen Elizabeth's state funeral last September, taking into account her past exchanges and relationships with the British royal family.
