Loose Women panelist Denise Welch has urged King Charles to “read the room” when the plans are drawn for his coronation to be officially crowned as the new monarch.

The actress, 64, was vocal on Wednesday’s episode of the popular ITV daytime panel show as they discussed the scale of the next royal occasion, which is set to be the coronation of the King, following the 10 days of mourning following the death of Queen Elizabeth II at the age of 96 on Thursday, September 8.

Coverage across all forms of media was dedicated to the longest reigning monarch in British history since her death until her funeral, which took place on Monday.

Host Jane Moore asked the panel consisting of Welch, Linda Robson and Brenda Edwards for their opinions about the grandeur of the King’s upcoming coronation.

Robson believed that the crowning ceremony should follow similarly to the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee where there were celebrations with localised street parties. Welch agreed with her co-star and explained the reasoning behind her “scaled back” view and also put in a “request” to the new King.

She said: “I think it’s all has been quite a lot, this last 10 days, but I think that it definitely will be a celebration.

“But I think that Charles, hopefully as the new King, will read the room and realise that although the money spent on this type of pageantry and pomp obviously brings a lot of revenue into this country, I think that it should be a slightly scaled back affair.

“And like you say, celebrated more with the street party. Also please, can I put a request into King Charles that it’s just one day because I found that, you know, a lot – 10 days of a media blackout.”

Welch was not scared to voice her dismay during the 10 days of mourning when she took to Twitter after an event she was involved in was cancelled. She ranted about the UK’s decision to cancel and postpone all events following the passing of Her Majesty.

Public and private events alike, including music concerts, were postponed in respect for the Queen and the extended Royal family – but Denise clearly was not entirely on board with the idea.

She wrote: “My friend has been forced to cancel a small charity event I was involved in raising money for people struggling to feed their families in Manchester. Many months of preparation. This is total insanity after the suffering of the last few years and I adored the Queen!!”
