Prince Harry wore his military uniform at a vigil for his late grandmother, Queen Elizabeth, his first appearance in military attire in more than two years.
Prince William, Prince of Wales, and Prince Harry held a ceremony to honor the queen.
Prince Harry's father, King Charles III granted the Duke of Sussex special permission to wear military uniform at the queen's funeral.
A Buckingham Palace spokesman told Town & Country earlier in the week that Harry would wear a morning suit for the procession because of the dress code that only applies to working royals.
Reports of being snubbed by members of the Royal Family who appeared to refuse to shake her hand and wild social media posts accusing her of wearing a microphone as she greeted mourners at Windsor Castle have been the objects of intense scrutiny.
According to CNN, Harry is not expected to wear a military uniform at any other ceremonies this week.
Buckingham Palace officials told CNN that Harry's uncle, Prince Andrew, who was stripped of his royal titles following sexual abuse allegations, was given permission to wear military attire at the protest.
Harry is now fifth in line to the throne, behind his brother, Prince William, and his three children.
More than two years have passed since the Royal Family announced their plans to step back as senior members of the family with a post on social media. In February of 2021, Buckingham Palace revoked Harry's titles, stating that it was not possible to continue with the responsibilities and duties that come with being a member of the royal family. During his time in Afghanistan, Harry was a forward air controller and a pilot for the British Army Air Corps. For the past two years, he has been living outside Santa Barbara, California, with his fiancée, and making more headlines for their joint ventures outside the monarchy.
Prince Andrew was stripped of his titles and status after being accused of sexual assault.
