The Queen’s eldest grandchild is Peter Phillips, aged 44.
Viscount Severn is the youngest at 14 years of age.
This is the first time the grandchildren of a monarch have ever stood vigil at a coffin. The Queen’s eight grandchildren have arrived in Westminster Hall to stand vigil at her coffin:
– The Prince of Wales
– The Duke of Sussex
– Peter Phillips
– Zara Tindall
– Princess Beatrice
– Princess Eugenie
– Lady Louise Mountbatten-Windsor
– Viscount Severn
The Royal Family’s personal sorrow will be at the heart of the Queen’s funeral service on Monday, the Dean of Westminster says.
The Very Reverend Dr David Hoyle, who will lead the service, says the ceremony will remember the Queen’s “significance, her place in history, her place in the nation and Commonwealth”.
“But it’s a funeral. It’s for a grieving family. That’s really important, personal sorrow at the heart of this,” he adds.
Dr Hoyle says the occasion will be on a scale which Westminster Abbey doesn’t often see, with hundreds of people involved in the preparations working through the night.
