Why Royal Family including Queen wore green instead of black to memorial service

The Royal Family made a public appearance today to commemorate the life of the late Prince Philip.

The Duke of Edinburgh sadly passed away at the age of 99 last year, but due to covid restrictions his funeral saw just 30 people attend. Now, the family have paid respects to the Prince at a thanksgiving service for him at Westminster Abbey.
