Penny Mordaunt, the Leader of the House of Commons, left viewers of the King’s Coronation impressed as she performed her ceremonial duties during the ceremony.
The Conservative MP also holds the role of Lord President of the Privy Council, a team of advisors to the monarch, and was required to carry the 17th-Century Sword of State, which weighs 8lbs, into Westminster Abbey.
The sword was then exchanged for the Jewelled Sword of Offering, which is encrusted with diamonds, rubies and emeralds and was made for the coronation of George IV in 1821.
