After walking alongside his family for the Queen’s memorial procession, many Royal Family fans are wondering: why isn’t Prince Harry wearing his military uniform?

Following the death of The Queen last week, King Charles has had a lot of changes to deal with as he became the new monarch following his mother’s sad passing.

A letter - handwritten by the Queen before her death - is currently being held in a vault in Australia with strict instructions not to open it until 2085. The letter is addressed to the people of Sydney and is kept in the city's historic Queen Victoria Building.The Queen wrote the letter when the building had been fully restored in 1986 and now sits in a glass case inside a restricted area in its dome. It's said that not even her personal staff know what the letter contains and all that can be seen is who the letter is addressed to and the Queen’s strict instructions as to when the letter can be read.

On the afternoon of Thursday 8 September, Buckingham Palace announced the sad news of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II's passing. But hours before her death, the Royal Family were informed of her "hours to live" condition, with many members rushing to get to her bedside.
