1 Harry Can Wear His Uniform to the Grandchildren’s Vigil
A Kensington Palace spokesperson has revealed that Prince Harry will be dressed in military uniform as he stands beside his grandmother’s coffin with his cousins and brother during the 15 minute long tribute.
2 He Will Be Joined By His Cousins ae0fcc31ae342fd3a1346ebb1f342fcb
Princess Beatrice, Princess Eugenie, Lady Louise, James Viscount Severn, Peter Phillips, Zara Tindall, Prince William, and Prince Harry are all expected to be at the vigil. At the head of the coffin will be the future King of England, the Prince of Wales, while the Duke of Sussex will be at the foot.
3 The Other Cousins Will Wear Dark Clothes
Both Harry and William will be in uniform at the King’s request, while the other cousins will wear morning coats and dark, formal dress attire. “I understand it was the King’s request that Prince Harry would be permitted to wear uniform when the Queen’s grandchildren stand vigil beside her coffin on Saturday evening,” GB News royal reporter Cameron Walker tweeted.
4 Harry Has Been Dressed in Black Suits at the Other Events
Harry wore a black suit adorned with his medals during the Queen’s coffin procession on Wednesday, while his brother was dressed in military garb. Andrew was also dressed in a suit, while his siblings, King Charles III, Princess Anne, and the Earl of Wessex, all wore military uniforms.
5 Experts Call It a Great Compromise
“I wouldn’t characterise this as Harry throwing a strop over not being able to wear a uniform or the Palace bowing to public opinion – Harry divides the public. A grandchildren’s vigil is a neat solution though,” Royal Reporter Richard Palmer tweeted.
