The Queen's four children mounted an emotional vigil around the coffin of their deceased mother. The event comes just hours after a procession saw her majesty's body being transported along Edinburgh's Royal Mile.
King Charles, Prince Andrew, Prince Edward and Princess Anne took part in the first of several Vigil of the Princes at St Giles' Cathedral. Stood solemnly with lowered heads, the four royals formed part of a guard around the four corners of the coffin for around 10 minutes.
Looking on were Queen Consort Camilla, Sophie Wessex and Princess Anne's husband Sir Timothy Laurence. As they stood guard, Charles wore the Prince Charles Edward Stuart tartan kile and white heather in his lappel from Balmoral, as reported by the Mirror.
