Prince Harry 'heartbroken' after symbol honouring Queen removed from his uniform - but not William's

Prince Harry was "devastated" at having to remove the 'ER' symbol from his military uniform as he held vigil by her coffin - even though Prince William was allowed to keep his, it is claimed.

The Duke of Sussex, who has seen active service in Afghanistan, took part in a vigil last night alongside William and cousins Zara Tindall and Peter Phillips, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie. Prince Edward's children Lady Louise Windsor and her brother James, Viscount Severn were also present.

However the Mirror reports that Harry's uniform was notably lacking in the initials 'ER' -- Elizabeth Regina, 'regina' being Latin for 'queen' -- that are usually displayed in honour of his grandmother. Harry was allowed to wear the military uniform inside the hall after he was given permission by his father, King Charles III.
