Lara, 53, went live on Good Morning America from Dumfries House in Cumnock, Scotland while holding a baby goat.
She explained to Robin Roberts back in the studio and talked about how she had some help from the animal.
“I have a little help this morning from this little lady,” she exclaimed while holding the goat that was wrapped up in a red blanket.
She discussed some brief history about the property she was on.
The home belonged to one family for over 300 years and is now open to everyone.
“They provide job training here in agriculture, farming and so much more. This place has created incredible connections for so many people.”
Those opportunities were given to people thanks to King Charles.
The King’s coronation will take place on Saturday at Westminster Abbey in London, England.
On Wednesday, members of the Royal Family including Prince William and his wife Princess Kate will be there, along with their three children, Prince George, nine, Princess Charlotte, eight, and Prince Louis, five, were spotted arriving at Westminster Abbey for coronation rehearsals.
IT’LL COST HOW MUCH?
The Royal Family pays for weddings, but the government picks up the tab for coronations.
The Operation Golden Orb committee, which plans the ceremony, estimates that even a slimmed-down coronation could cost around £100million ($125million).
In 1953, Britain was recovering from paying for World War II and there was still food rationing, but Winston Churchill’s government spent £1.5million ($1.8million) on the Queen’s coronation.
A source said: “In today’s money the 1953 coronation cost around £50million [$62.8million] but estimates for King Charles’s are twice that because of things like security, which weren’t such a big issue back then.
“But worldwide TV rights will more than cover the cost and it will be a massive boost to tourism.
“Hotels are already being booked out for the coronation weekend.”
WHO WILL ATTEND?
Around 2,000 people will be able to attend the ceremony at Westminster Abbey.
This will include a number of members of the British Royal Family.

On April 12, 2023, it was confirmed that Prince Harry will be attending, but wife Meghan Markle would stay behind in the US with their two children, Archie and Lilibet.
Prince William, Kate, George, Charlotte, and Louis will also be in attendance.
King Charles’ siblings – Princess Anne, Prince Andrew, and Prince Edward – and their families will also attend.
A number of foreign royals will also be in attendance, including Prince Albert and Princess Charlene of Monaco.
Members of Queen Camilla’s family will attend, including her son Tom Parker-Bowles.
Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and Scottish first minister Hamza Yousaf have also been confirmed.
US president Joe Biden will not be there, although other foreign heads of state will attend.
CAN I WATCH THE CORONATION?
In 1953, an estimated 3million people lined the specially- extended route to see the new Queen’s procession.
Her journey was five miles long and it took 45 minutes for the procession to pass by, flanked by military personnel.
The 2023 route will be shorter, but it is expected that the procession will still take 40 minutes to pass.
Royal fans will be able to line the route and wave the King and Queen on their way on May 6, 2023.
They will travel to the ceremony at Westminster Abbey from Buckingham Palace in the Diamond Jubilee coach.
Their route will take them along The Mall to Trafalgar Square, then past Whitehall to Westminster Abbey,
The service will begin in the Abbey at 11am.
Crowds will then see them return to the Palace in the Gold State Coach.
And those close enough to the Palace will be able to cheer the newly crowned King and Queen on the balcony.
Viewers watching at home will be able to see the live ceremony on BBC One, ITV, and Sky.
TV viewing figures are expected to match the extraordinary 37million in the UK who watched the Queen’s funeral coverage.
