Prince Harry and his wife were seated in the second row of the funeral, while his father, King Charles III, Queen consort Camilla, Prince William and Kate were seated in the front row. The queen's son Prince Andrew was stripped of his royal titles due to his friendship with a convicted sex offender.

Harry's cousins, Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie, sat next to the Duke and duchess.

Despite having served the most time in the army, Harry was not allowed to wear his uniform at the funeral.

Sentimental jewelry worn by Catherine and Meghan

There was a lot of meaning behind the jewelry worn by Kate and the Princess of Wales. Kate was wearing a necklace that was owned by the queen. Her mother-in-law wore the necklace before she died. When it was presented to the queen, it was from Japan. For the queen and Prince Philip's 70th wedding anniversary, and again for the prince's funeral, Kate wore the choker. The pearl drop earrings that Kate wore were a gift to the queen from the ruler of the kingdom.

A pair of earrings were made with diamonds and pearls. She wore them on her first outing with her grandmother-in-law.

Two-minute silence across the U.K.

The queen's funeral was marked by a two-minute silence across the U.K. Crowds watching the funeral on screens in Hyde Park and other royal parks stood in silence. The end of the silence was followed by a song.
