Prince Harry is being accused of showing “total, utter disrespect for his father” by appearing to stop singing “God Save the King” at the end of his grandmother’s funeral.
Harry’s biographer, Angela Levin, was among many who retweeted a clip seemingly showing the Duke of Sussex, 38, tight-lipped as those around him sang the anthem in tribute to his estranged father.
It showed King Charles III fighting back tears as Westminster Abbey erupted into a rousing chorus of “God Save the King” to bring the funeral of Queen Elizabeth II to an emotional end.
The king did not sing the anthem, which is an ode to him — and seemingly nor did Harry, who was shown standing immediately behind him, staring forward with his mouth closed for the final 10 seconds of the tribute.
Queen Consort Camilla was clearly singing to the end, as were Charles’ sister, Princess Anne, and her husband, Vice Admiral Timothy Laurence. The king’s disgraced brother Andrew was also moving his mouth in the shot, as were his daughters behind him.
An earlier shot also showed the other senior royals — including Harry’s once-close brother, Prince William, and his family — all clearly singing.
