Confusion as Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie appear to leave funeral early

Royal fans were confused as Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie appeared to leave their grandmother's funeral early.

As the funeral service at Westminster Abbey was nearing its end, the two princesses were seen getting up and leaving their seats before other royals in the congregation. It was before the Queen's coffin was carried out of the Abbey - and their mother Sarah Ferguson appeared to want to join them although eventually sat back down.

People watching the funeral on TV were left baffled by their seeming early exit from the service - although they were outside with the rest of the royals as the coffin left the Abbey, MirrorOnline reports.
