Why Kate Middleton's car was in front of Meghan Markle's for Queen's coffin procession

The Princess of Wales and the Duchess of Sussex travelled in different cars during the procession of the Queen's coffin today. Her Majesty made her final journey from Buckingham Palace to Westminster Hall while tens of thousands of people watched - with many left in tears.

Escorting the coffin on foot from the Palace were the King and his three siblings, Prince Andrew, Princess Anne and Prince Edward and the Queen's grandsons Peter Phillips, Prince William and Prince Harry, who stood shoulder to shoulder. Kate Middleton and Queen Consort Camilla were in separate vehicles to Meghan Markle and Sophie, Countess of Wessex - and there's a very simple reason why.
