Harry and Meghan have joined the royal family in paying tribute to the Queen by taking part in the monarch’s funeral procession, despite their departure from official royal responsibilities and their status as senior royal members.
The Sussexes are still present more than a week after she passed away peacefully. Harry attended his grandmother’s state funeral today.
The Queen’s coffin was in front of them as the Prince of Wales and the Duke of Sussex walked side by side to Westminster Abbey after the game.
Harry and William reportedly took part in many parades. This time, they followed the Queen’s casket as they went through London to the Wellington arch.
The brothers followed the casket along the Long Walk once it had reached Windsor. Their last stop was Windsor Castle, where they went to St. George’s Chapel to attend the committal ceremony.
Naturally, they weren’t alone themselves. King Charles and his three siblings, Princess Anne, Prince Edward, and Prince Andrew, served as the leaders for Prince William and Prince Harry.
He commended the remarkable long-term monarch’s work ethic and desire for serving the monarchy at the outset of his tribute address and said that she left behind a tremendous legacy.
He nodded to his father, King Charles III, the current king, while praising her reputation. He concluded by thanking his grandmother for the responsibilities she has performed and adding:
Sadly, Harry will be burying his loved ones one again this year. When his mother, Diana, passed away in a horrifying accident in 1997, the 12-year-old Prince seemed to suffer something very upsetting.
Harry’s Mom’s Death Traumatized Him
He also sought to distract himself from his sorrow by engaging in some odd behaviors at the same time. When he was a young prince, Harry often made the news for his scandalous actions.
He had lost his mother Diana a week before. He was supposed to walk with his grandfather, Prince Philip, father, the former Prince Charles, his maternal uncle, Charles Spencer, and his brother, William, who was 15 at the time.
The Duke of Sussex explained that even though his mother had just passed away, he was still required by custom to march behind her casket as millions of people across the globe watched on television. The man said:
“In my opinion, no youngster should ever be expected to do that task. I don’t believe it would occur right now.”
Harry was wounded by what he had to do, but he did not declare this custom to be good or evil. Instead, he insisted that he was “extremely delighted” to have been a part of such history in a subsequent interview.
In 2017, Harry’s remarks on the march were mirrored by Diana’s brother, who walked in the burial procession with her sons.
The “most frightening half hour” of Charles’ life, he said, adding that even after it had passed, he had nightmares for many years.
The Earl stated that he had opposed the choice because it would have gone against Diana’s desires. Charles did in fact challenge the Prince of Wales at the time.
The King eventually got his way because he was at ease having his two sons stroll with him. Charles insisted that it was “bizarre and inhumane” to include the youngsters in the march since bystanders, especially strangers, were visibly upset.
Instead, as they went, they would be met by raucous sobs, condolences, and remarks in memory of their mother. As said by the Earl:
For the young Prince, losing his mother completely was undoubtedly a traumatic event that had an impact on every aspect of his life.
He also sought to distract himself from his sorrow by engaging in some odd behaviors at the same time. When he was a young prince, Harry often made the news for his scandalous actions.
Harry eventually altered the direction of his life by taking the counsel of his loved ones and family. He gave William the credit for forcing him to adapt and express his feelings. The Prince benefited from his participation in boxing and counseling.
