Prince Philip’s funeral: Royals gather at Windsor Castle to bid farewell

Britain’s royal family gathered Saturday to bid farewell to Prince Philip at an intimate funeral at Windsor Castle, where all eyes were on his feuding grandsons, Harry and William, who were separated during the solemn procession and 50-minute ceremony in St. George’s Chapel — but were seen comfortably chatting together afterwards.

Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh, died April 9 at age 99, the longest-serving consort in British history. The royal ceremony, limited to about 30 attendees, began as ranks of troops with heads bowed stood in the quadrangle of Windsor Castle as the coffin, covered with Philip’s ceremonial standard, his naval service cap and sword, and a wreath laid by Queen Elizabeth II was borne out by eight guardsmen and laid in the bed of his specially designed Land Rover.
