The White House announced that President Biden had declined the invitation to attend the coronation last month.

The president, however, offered his congratulations via social media on Saturday, writing, “Congratulations to King Charles III and Queen Camilla on their Coronation. The enduring friendship between the U.S. and the U.K. is a source of strength for both our peoples.”

He added, “I am proud the First Lady is representing the United States for this historic occasion.”

The White House commented on the president’s absence, noting that no U.S. president has attended any of the seven coronations of a British monarch since the country declared independence in 1776.
