The funeral will take place tomorrow
Due to Covid-19 restrictions on numbers, only a limited amount of people will be able to attend the funeral of Prince Philip, who passed away last week.
The royal funeral will take place tomorrow at 3pm at St. George’s Chapel in Windsor.
Originally, 800 people would have reportedly planned on attending. However, numbers had to be scaled back considerably for safety reasons.
The congregation will consist mostly of the Duke of Edinburgh’s close family. However, his great-grandchildren will not be attending as they are considered too young for the funeral, which will be televised.
A national moment of silence in honour of Prince Philip’s memory will take place just before the funeral starts.
The procession will be led by the late Prince’s children – Prince Charles, Princess Anne, Prince Andrew and Prince Edward, and his grandchildren Prince William and Prince Harry.
According to Buckingham Palace, William and Harry will not walk side by side during the procession.
Naturally, Queen Elizabeth II will be in attendance.
Prince William will be joined by his wife Kate Middleton.
Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall will join her husband Prince Charles. Princess Anne’s husband Sir Timothy Laurence and her children Peter Phillips and Zara Tindall will also attend, along with her husband Mike Tindall.
Prince Andrew’s daughters Beatrice and Eugenie will attend with their partners Edoardao Mapelli Mozzi and Jack Brooksbank, respectively.
The Queen’s youngest grandchildren, Viscount Severn and Lady Louise Mountbatten Windsor – Prince Edward’s children – will join their parents.
Princess Margaret’s daughter Lady Sarah and her husband Daniel Chatto will be there, along with the late Princess’ son David Armstrong-Jones.
Other guests include the Queen’s cousins – Prince Richard, Prince Edward and Princess Alexandra.
A number of Prince Phillip’s German relatives will attend including the Prince of Baden, the Landgrave of Hesse and the Prince of Hohenlohe-Langenburg.
The Countess Mountbatten of Burma, a friend and relative of Prince Philip, will also be there.
