Buckingham Palace announced today that Prince Philip will be buried on April 17th at St George’s Chapel in Windsor in a private funeral that will only be attended by 30 people. According to ITV’s Chris Ship, the 30 people will include the Royal Family and Duke’s own Private Secretary.
After the service, his coffin will be lowered into the Royal Vault underneath St George’s Chapel.
The reason why the service is private is they don’t want people to congregate in one area. They do not want to cause another surge of COVID-19 cases.
Now the question you are all asking is are Prince Harry and Meghan Markle going to attend. He will be there, but his wife says that doctors advised her not to go because of her pregnancy.
The Royal Family started mourning him yesterday for two weeks. At the same time, England will be mourning him for a week that will end with his funeral.
