When Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II passed away peacefully in her residence at Balmoral last September, it meant that her son Charles ascended to the throne at the age of 73.
And after Saturday's (6 May) coronation, the royal crown was placed upon King Charles III's head.
The King and newly appointed Queen said they were 'deeply touched' by the nation’s celebration of their historic event, according to a Palace spokesperson.
“Their Majesties were deeply touched by the events of yesterday and profoundly grateful both to all those who helped to make it such a glorious occasion - and to the very many who turned out to show their support in such numbers in London and further afield,” they said.
However, some fans of the royals might already be thinking about 'what happens next?'.
The Duke of Cambridge - Prince William - is next in line for the throne, but would that mean Princess Kate's new royal title would be 'Queen'?
Not quite.
When Queen Elizabeth II passed away, it was announced that Camilla would go by the title of Queen Consort. This was to differentiate Camilla from the late Queen in the months following her death.
However, the Royal Family have since officially updated Camilla's title to Her Majesty The Queen, or Queen Camilla.
The news of Camilla's title change first broke when Buckingham Palace unveiled their official coronation day invitation, which invited guests to the 'Coronation of Their Majesties King Charles III and Queen Camilla'.
Since then, the official Royal Family website has updated Camilla's page with the title and the new Queen was also anointed at the coronation.
Following the title change, many have been wondering if the same will happen for Princess Kate.
As far as we know, Kate will be known as Queen Consort when William becomes King - a title which is reserved for the spouse of the ruler.
But incase you were wondering, the line of Succession is as follows:
1. The Duke of Cambridge - Prince William
2. Prince George of Cambridge
3. Princess Charlotte of Cambridge
4. Prince Louis of Cambridge
5. The Duke of Sussex - Prince Harry
6. Master Archie Mountbatten-Windsor
7. Miss Lilibet Mountbatten-Windsor
8. The Duke of York - Prince Andrew
9. Princess Beatrice, Mrs. Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi
10. Miss Sienna Mapelli Mozzi
11. Princess Eugenie, Mrs. Jack Brooksbank
12. Master August Brooksbank
13. The Earl of Wessex - Prince Edward
14. Viscount Severn - James Alexander Philip Theo Mountbatten-Windsor
15. The Lady Louise Mountbatten-Windsor
16. The Princess Royal
17. Mr. Peter Phillips
18. Miss Savannah Phillips
19. Miss Isla Phillips
20. Mrs. Michael Tindall
21. Miss Mia Tindall
22. Miss Lena Tindall
23. Master Lucas Tindall
