No Edward VIII was never crowned. He abdicated in December 1936, to be able to marry Wallis Simpson, an American socialite already two times divorced. There was a huge controversy about Wallis Simpson being a fit consort for the King. The coronation date, which had already been set was used instead for the coronation of Edward's younger brother Albert who became King George VI.
