Harry and Meghan Markle have thus found their family for this great moment.
A night in Buckingham facing the coffin of Elizabeth II.
New stage in the organization of the funeral of Elizabeth II, the arrival of the coffin of Her Majesty at Buckingham Palace.The queen having died at Balmoral in Scotland, her remains toured the Kingdom before resting in Westminster.
The disappearance of Elizabeth II on September 8, 2022 brought the two brothers William and Harry and their wives closer together, after months of tension. They were reunited once again when Her Majesty’s coffin arrived at Buckingham Palace this Tuesday evening, September 13.
Thus, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have joined the members of the royal family again and therefore the Prince and Princess of Wales, new titles of William and Kate.
These “reunions” follow those that took place in front of Windsor Castle, a moment scrutinized by the whole world, between the joy of seeing the “Fab Four” (the fantastic four) together and moments of embarrassment such as when a passer-by refused to shake hands with the heroine of Suits.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, now settled in the United States with their children Lilibet and Archie, were seen in their vehicle arriving at the royal residence in London.
After prayers at the palace in the presence of King Charles III, Queen Consort Camilla and the Royal Family, the coffin will leave Buckingham Palace at 1 p.m. this Wednesday for a procession through central London, placed on a gun carriage, at the Palace of Westminster.
The King and members of the Royal Family will join in, as Big Ben rings and cannons are fired from Hyde Park.
After this night at Buckingham Palace, the remains must reach Westminster Hall, the oldest chamber in the British Parliament, after a solemn procession in central London. For almost five days, from Wednesday until Monday, September 19, the day of the national funeral, the British will be able to come and pay a last tribute as closely as possible to their sovereign, unanimously hailed for her total devotion during more than 70 years of reign. Hundreds of thousands of people are expected at Westminster Hall, open for the occasion 24 hours a day.
Prince Harry’s new appearance comes as royalty author Tom Bower says the Duke of Sussex will publish his autobiography in November as planned, despite his grandmother’s recent death.
A book that has everything to ignite again the relations between the members of the royal family, in view of the painful tensions which the couple has already been able to share in the media. The apparent appeasement at the time of meditation should not last.
