Prince George and Princess Charlotte will attend the funeral of Queen Elizabeth II and walk behind her coffin.
Numerous people wait at a crossroads outside the Palace of Westminster to catch a glimpse of the arriving state guests who want to visit the laid out coffin of Queen Elizabeth II in Westminster Hall. The over 1,000-year-old abbey has been the setting for royal coronations for hundreds of years, including the queen's own in 1953, and is also where she married Prince Philip in 1947.
Meanwhile, King Charles III released a statement Sunday in which he thanked"those countless people who have been such a support and comfort to my family and myself in this time of grief." "Over the last ten days, my wife and I have been so deeply touched by the many messages of condolence and support we have received from this country and across the world," the statement read.
