Princess Mary has been sent “profound apologies” after her invitation to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth’s funeral was revoked at the last minute.

Denmark’s royal family had confirmed Princess Mary's attendance on September 13, saying: “HM The Queen and the Crown Prince Couple [will be] present at the State Funeral of Queen Elizabeth II.” But as Mary’s husband Prince Frederik and mother-in-law Queen Margrethe were seated inside Westminster Abbey on Monday, she was nowhere to be seen.

Speaking to the Danish news outlet BT, the family claimed that the UK foreign office had issued Mary’s initial invitation by some “regrettable error” A statement from the Royal House read: “There has been a regrettable error in the invitation from the British Foreign Office's protocol.
