The Prince of Wales made a heart breaking admission to a mourner while visiting Sandringham House. William and Kate went to view the sea of flowers left for the Queen at the gates of the Norfolk estate on Thursday (September 15).
William told one mourner that walking behind the Queen’s coffin to the lying in state on Wednesday was difficult, and reminded him of his mother Diana, Princess of Wales’s funeral. Caroline Barwick-Walters, 66, from Neath in South Wales, said: “He told us how difficult it was yesterday, how it brought back memories of walking behind his mother’s coffin.”
He told another woman: "Don’t cry now, you’ll start me," according to Daily Express royal correspondent Richard Palmer. Thousands of well-wishers turned out to see William and Kate look at the sea of flowers left for the late monarch by the Norwich Gates.
