The pages attending the King and Queen at their coronation were dressed in uniforms familiar to the military community.

The boys, who are all close family and friends of the Royals, carried the trains of their heavy robes.

The outfits worn by Queen Camilla's pages paid tribute to her military roles with the Rifles and the Grenadier Guards.

Two of her grandsons, Louis Lopes and Freddy Parker Bowles, wore red uniforms based on those of the Grenadier Guards, of which the Queen is Colonel-in-Chief.

Their jackets carried her cypher on their shoulders and gold cuffs.

Grandson Gus Lopes and grand-nephew Arthur Elliot were dressed in uniforms reminiscent of the Rifles, of which she is also Colonel-in-Chief.

More than 9,000 members of the UK Armed Forces were deployed on the day of the coronation, with 7,000 on ceremonial duties

The green jackets featured red Rifles piping, with an historic collar braid on the neck and front, and Her Majesty’s cypher on the shoulder.

Prince George was page to his grandfather and wore a red tunic, decorated with gold braid and lace.

He was joined by grandchildren of the King and Queen's friends: Nicolas Barclay, Ralph Tollemache and Lord Oliver Cholmondeley.
