It was a normal day outside the British royal residence, when suddenly, the arrival of an elegant white carriage began to be spotted, which caught the attention of thousands of citizens and tourists who were in the place. The excitement began to overflow when they began to see who was inside the carriage.
On Thursday last week, Buckingham Palace was the scene of a “hoax” by what appeared to be King Charles III and his wife, Queen consort Camilla Parker. Thousands of people who witnessed the scene, totally believed the farce and even photographed the moment totally excited.
From a distance, they were King Charles and Camilla Parker, but as the carriage got closer, people began to notice that they were look-alikes, pretending to be the royal couple. The German DW channel even assured that they almost managed to convince the palace guards to allow them to enter the palace.

They were not only locals and tourists, but also several journalists and cameramen from different media who frequent the place in search of relevant material.
The whole thing was a farce, and its protagonist was the British artist Alison Jackson, who is known for making this kind of parodies and scenarios. She even uploaded a video of the simulation to her social networks.
The artist decided to put together this scene to promote her recent exhibition entitled ‘The Crown‘ which is at the Grove Art Gallery.
