In an interview with Metro, the pop star opened up on missing the event: "I would love to have done that to be honest."

She added: "I was pretty like, bummed out that we didn't do that. I was really wanting that to happen so I was a bit sad it didn’t, well a lot sad."

The coronation concert, held in celebration of the newly Christened King Charles and Queen Camilla, took place outside Windsor Castle and was attended by 20,000 people with the event being free to attend.

The event featured a number of performances from the likes British acts such as Take That, Paloma Faith and Olly Murs as well as international artists including Katy Perry, Lionel Richie and Andrea Bocelli.
