King Charles III and his sons Prince William and Prince Harry were cheered by crowds Monday as they started the final, day-long goodbye to Queen Elizabeth II.
The King, his children and siblings — Princess Anne, Princes Andrew and Edward — followed the late monarch’s flag-draped coffin mounted on a gun carriage from Westminster Hall to the 13th century Westminster Abbey for the state funeral.
Princes Harry and Andrew wore black morning coats, rather than their military uniforms, after being stripped off that privilege.
Upon entering the abbey, the King was joined by Queen Consort Camilla, and the spouses of the other immediate family members also took their places behind the coffin, including Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle.
Earlier, the king’s convoy was seen traveling along the Mall just after 9:30 a.
