Senior royals gathered to honor the life of Prince Philip on Tuesday. Prince Charles, Prince William, Kate Middleton, Prince Andrew and other extended family were in attendance. Prince Harry chose not to attend the thanksgiving service. He had no plans to travel to the United Kingdom during late March, a spokesperson for the royal previously confirmed to Fox News Digital.
Prince Harry does plan to visit Queen Elizabeth II as soon as possible, according to the spokesperson. The monarch entered the church on the arm of her second son, Prince Andrew, then separated from him to walk to her seat alone, easing concerns about her health that had raised questions about whether she would attend. The service of thanksgiving is the first public royal event Prince Andrew has attended since he settled a sexual abuse lawsuit earlier this month.
Prince Philip's memorial was also Queen Elizabeth's first major public event in months, since unspecified mobility issues hampered her ability to get around. The 95-year-old monarch was deeply involved in planning the service, which included hymns and tributes from his charities. Such touches weren't possible during his funeral last year because of strictures surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic. About 1,800 family members and guests attended the memorial.
