Queen Elizabeth's funeral meant hours of meticulously planned royal protocol, as well as some tenser moments. Here's a recap
A lot of fuss was made about the funeral’s seating arrangements. For the state funeral service, all the queen’s children and their spouses sat in the front row: King Charles III and Camilla; Princess Anne and her husband, Sir Timothy Laurence; Prince Edward and his wife, Sophie, Countess of Wessex; and, yes, Prince Andrew.
Of course, Harry and Meghan’s spot in the second row was the subject of a lot of chatter, though some argued that their position — directly behind Charles and Camilla — was actually better. Never have I given so much thought to church-pew logistics.The most notable absence was Prince Louis, Kate and William’s youngest son.
Two of the queen’s last corgis, who are now under the care of Prince Andrew and his ex-wife, Sarah Ferguson, were in attendance and looking appropriately spiffy. The queen’s horse Emma showed up to watch the procession too.. Authoritarian Brazilian president Jair Bolsonaro showed up, as did representatives for Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, the man the CIA concluded was responsible for the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi in 2018.
