Why do reporters insist on ruining the moment by talking

This is so touching. The earthly monarch is stripped off of all his royal garments to kneel before the King of kings and Lord of lords. Powerful message right there. 🙌🏿

This was the most touching moment I think, when the crowned king was stripped off of his royal vestment and knelt before the One True King.... that's total submission to Almighty God. and the music...so heavenly!!!

Even monarchs are to strip and submit to the HIGHEST authority... almighty God! King of Kings! Lords of Lords, Father of all!

In an age of secularism, modernity, ever changing rules, globalisation, there is something very reassuring about watching a ritual dating back 1000 years. God is in control! God save the King and the people of the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth 🇬🇧❤️🇬🇧
