Chew do you think you are? British Vogue editor Edward Enninful is spotted seemingly making a faux pax at the King’s Coronation as he arrives at the ceremony with Katy Perry
- Editor-in-chief of Vogue Edward Enninful spotted chewing gum at Coronation
- Fashion journalist, 51, arrived at Westminster Abbey with pop star Katy Perry
- Social media users posted that they could see other guests committing faux pas
As the editor-in-chief of British Vogue, Edward Enninful is usually a reliable bastion of good taste.
But the 51-year-old made a rare misstep as a Coronation guest on Saturday when he appeared to arrive at Westminster Abbey chewing gum.
Eagle-eyed onlookers took to Twitter to criticise the fashion journalist, who was pictured arriving for the ceremony with pop star Katy Perry.
Videos of the pair, who were searching for Katy’s seat, seemed to show Enninful breaking etiquette as he chewed away while scanning the aisles.
One commentator icily said: ‘Chewing gum is not a good look in the Abbey.’

Enninful is British Vogue’s first black editor and has been at the helm since 2017. He wore a bespoke morning suit by Savile Row tailor Huntsman and a navy tie.
Viewers watching the ceremony on TV were quick to point out that several esteemed guests appeared to be committing the faux pas.
‘It might be the teacher librarian in me,’ one wrote, ‘but all I can see is people chewing gum.’
Another said: ‘Tuned into #Coronation to see a Commonwealth dignitary entering the Abbey chewing GUM! I wonder where he’ll stick it.’
Perhaps Enninful can claim he’s simply following a Royal trend – David Beckham drew attention at Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s wedding in May 2018 for chewing ‘like it’s a football dugout’, as one viewer put it.
