Last Thursday became a historic day when the second Elizabethan age came to an end as the Queen sadly passed away. But before that, senior royals including now King Charles III, Prince Andrew, and Prince William all rushed to Balmoral to say their final farewell to Her Majesty.
But Prince Harry, 37, who has infamously fallen out with his big brother, was late to Scotland because he couldn't get on the same private jet that his family were travelling on. An insider has now spoken out saying the move could have been a 'snub' against the prince, who gave up life as a working royal in March 2020.

Harry had to charter his own private plane in a desperate bid to get to Balmoral in time to say a final farewell to the Queen.
He was the last royal to arrive at his grandmother's Scottish home on Thursday after being unable to travel on the same private jet as brother Prince William, Prince Andrew, Prince Edward and his wife Sophie.
While the rest of the royals travelled on a Dassault Falcon 900LX jet, believed to be owned by the government, he instead travelled on a Cessna 560XL from Luton.
Harry was also the first royal to leave Balmoral on Friday morning when he travelled back to London on a commercial British Airways flight.
A source told the Mirror: "It feels like Harry was left out in the cold.
"It may not have been deliberate or intended as a snub, but his experience was in sharp contrast to other members of his family."
It is understood the Duke and his wife Meghan, who both stepped down as full-time working royals in March 2020, were at Frogmore Cottage in Windsor when told about the Queen's failing health.
Initial reports suggested Meghan had also planned to travel to Scotland with him, but in the end she did not travel north, mirroring William's wife Kate.
The former actress has cancelled "several planned appearances" in New York that had been set for the day after Queen Elizabeth's funeral date, as the Royal Family enters the official mourning for the monarch.
She had been scheduled to appear on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon on on September 20, the same day she and Prince Harry planned to visit the UN General Assembly in Manhattan.
Both appearances have now been postponed and it Meghan has delayed the next episode of her podcast Archetypes, which had been set for release tonight, Tuesday, September 13, on Spotify.
The Queen's death came while the Duke and Duchess were coming to the end of a successful European tour.
It was last night unclear whether Meghan plans to stay in the UK until the funeral, or will fly back to California to be with their young children Archie and Lilibet before returning for the funeral.
Harry and William have been locked in a long-running feud following reports of fallouts between them and their wives.
The pair, who were previously close after developing a close bond following the death of their mother Diana 25 years ago, were seen speaking to each other immediately after leaving church for Prince Philip's funeral in April last year, which Meghan did not attend.
But it is believed they now remain as distant as ever.
Our source last night added: "Harry and William appear no closer to reuniting. It's very sad.
"If the Queen's passing doesn't bring them back together, I don't know if anything ever will."
