The Prince and Princess of Wales were among several royals who attended the Duchess of Kent's funeral earlier this week. Prince William and Princess Kate joined King Charles at Westminster Cathedral, London on Tuesday 16 September for the service, although Queen Camilla was unable to attend due to illness. However, Prince Andrew's appearance came as a surprise to many with The Mirror claiming that the crowds "gasped" upon seeing him.
But it is Prince William's reaction that royal fans have noted, as photos of the heir standing by his uncle have circulated online. In the images, William appears to be looking away from Andrew and avoiding engaging with him. According to The Daily Beast, a friend of William's said the Prince was "furious" and felt "ambushed" by the positioning, claiming that the placement was a "disgrace". The source also alleged that William has attempted to avoid photographs with the Duke of York for years, noting that the future King has made his feelings quite clear.
