Overview
- An unnamed source told HELLO! that televisions are installed on the balcony to show both The Mall and the royals’ own view during ceremonies.
- The screens are reportedly placed in the balcony corners, slightly angled, and concealed behind the red fabric covering the balustrade.
- The arrangement is described as a workaround for the Queen Victoria Memorial, which blocks a direct line of sight from the balcony to The Mall.
- HELLO! published the claim on January 12 and Marie Claire repeated it later that day, and the palace has not verified the detail.
- Separately confirmed context notes the balcony is reached through the Centre Room in the East Wing, which features on guided tours and supports appearances for events such as Trooping the Colour.
