Royals blasted for banning Prince Harry from salute, uniform at Queen’s funeral

A royal welcome. King Charles III and Queen Consort Camilla enjoyed their first joint engagement in Scotland since the official period of mourning Queen Elizabeth II ended.

Prince Harry made sure his family knew who his priority was while in the UK for Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral.

Room for reconciliation. The seating chart at Queen Elizabeth II‘s funeral was not a snub at Prince Harry from King Charles III, royal historian Gareth Russell exclusively tells Us Weekly.

Resting place. Prince Harry and Meghan Markle returned to their wedding venue – St George’s Chapel at Windsor Castle — to give their final farewell to Queen Elizabeth II.

Queen Elizabeth‘s funeral took place today (Monday, September 19) in both London, England and Windsor, England.

Prince Harry may end up dropping his book deal after coming together with the Royal Family for Queen Elizabeth II’s state funeral, a royal photographer has said. Last year, Harry, 37, announced plans for his tell-all book, in which will focus on his time as a young royal living in the United Kingdom, all the way up to becoming a dad-of-two now living in Los Angeles.

Queen Elizabeth II's funeral on Monday 19 September will take place at Westminster Abbey, and King Charles III, 73, confirmed that the day will be a national bank holiday.

Honoring Her Majesty’s legacy. Queen Elizabeth’s vigil was held two days before her funeral. Her grandchildren, led by Prince William and Prince Harry, took a moment of silence to give tribute to her.

Queen Elizabeth II's grandchildren paid her a touching tribute on Saturday.

The Prince Harry and Meghan Markle drama continued into the weekend as it wasn’t clear if the Sussexes would be attending a pre-funeral reception at Buckingham Palace on the eve of Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral.  The Duke and Duchess of Sussex – who settled in California after stepping down as senior royals in 2020 – reportedly initially received an invitation to the Sunday evening reception, but conflicting reports said they were and weren’t expected to attend.  According to the Telegraph, they have now been uninvited because palace officials insisted that the reception hosted by King Charles III and Camilla, the queen consort, is only for working royals, which Harry and Meghan are not. Yahoo New UK reported, however, that despite the reception originally only being for working members of the royal family, an exception was made and the Sussexes are expected to attend.  Prince Harry and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, leave Westminster Hall, London after the coffin of Queen Elizabeth II was brought to the hall to lie in state ahead of her funeral on Monday on September 14, 2022 in London, England.  (Photo Danny Lawson - WPA Pool/Getty Images)) The "King and Queen Consort, accompanied by members of the royal family" plan to welcome hundreds of world leaders and royals from other countries, the palace said on Friday.
