The rock singer-songwriter revealed that he has received a lot of hostile messages
On Saturday, May 6, Charles will be crowned King of the United Kingdom, while his wife Camilla will be crowned Queen, in a historic ceremony at Westminster Abbey.
Among the more than 2,000 official guests is the one and only Australian singer and musician, Nick Cave.
His decision to attend Charles’s coronation sparked backlash from fans of the artist and he felt the need to defend his appearance there, saying – among others – that it is the most important historical event in the UK and that it has “a inexplicable emotional connection to the royal family.”

The rock singer-songwriter has revealed that he has received many hostile messages for his alleged support for the monarchy.
“I am not pro-monarchist, nor pro-royalty, nor an ardent republican for that matter. I’m also not so spectacularly curious about the world and how it works, so ideologically captive, so damned grumpy, to turn down an invitation to what will probably be the most important UK historical event of your time,” Cave wrote in Red Hand Files answering a fan’s question “why will she attend the coronation”.
“I guess what I’m trying to say is that, beyond the endless but necessary discussions about the abolition of the monarchy, I retain an inexplicable emotional connection to the royals – their strange nature, the deeply eccentric nature of the case, which reflects so perfectly the unique strangeness of Britain itself.’
