George and Charlotte leave mourners in tears as they do 'Gan Gan' proud at funeral

Mourners have broken down into tears watching Prince George and Princess Charlotte join royal family members among some 2,000 guests at Queen Elizabeth II 's state funeral on Monday. The young siblings walked solemnly with their father and mother, the Prince and Princess of Wales, behind their "Gan Gan's" coffin - as the great-grandmother was affectionately known to them - at Westminster Abbey.

Viewers took to social media to share how moved they were by seeing the heartbroken pair, with many saying they burst into tears. Prince George, nine, who is second in line to the throne, was by his father's side while Princess Charlotte, seven, third in line to the throne, was next to her mother.

Ahead of the service, the Princess of Wales could be seen holding Charlotte's hand, giving her a reassuring touch on the shoulder.
