Police Scotland confirmed the pair, aged 20 and 21, have been arrested for breach of the peace at the Royal Mile in Edinburgh this afternoon, Wednesday, July 5. The women are believed to be activists for the climate group This Is Rigged.

Crowds gathered in the capital city today, waving Union Jack and Scotland flags, to greet the royals as a procession made its way through the city ahead of this afternoon's ceremony.
