No American President has ever attended a coronation of a British Monarch. In keeping with that precedent, Joe Biden won’t be at the crowning of King Charles III. Why Jill Biden is attending the coronation instead of the President:
But that didn’t stop Biden’s predecessor, Donald Trump, from blasting him for not making the return trip to England for the coronation, after Biden had recently swung through Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland.“I think it’s very disrespectful for him not to be here,” Trump said on Wednesday in an interview with Nigel Farage, a former British politician who was a prominent supporter of Brexit, on GB News.
While she is in the United Kingdom, Jill Biden will meet with Akshata Murty, the wife of Rishi Sunak, the British Prime Minister, at 10 Downing Street. The two will meet with veterans and visit a local elementary school on Friday. On Friday evening, Jill Biden will attend a reception at Buckingham Palace hosted by Charles the night before the crowning ceremony on Saturday.

During his Ireland trip last night, while visiting the Windsor Bar and Restaurant in Dundalk, Biden described his grandfather, Ambrose Finnegan, telling him, “‘Remember, Joey, the best drop of blood in you is Irish.’” A few minutes later, he acknowledged his English ancestry as well. “You know, Biden is English. I hate to tell you that. I don’t hate to — I’m joking, but it’s true,” Biden said.
