The four children of the late Queen Elizabeth came together for the “Vigil of the Princes” while her coffin lies in state. King Charles, Princess Anne, Prince Andrew, and Prince Edward surrounded the coffin on all four sides and stood vigil for about 15 minutes on Friday night (September 16) at Westminster Hall in London, England.

The children joined the King’s Body Guards to ceremoniously protect the coffin while it lies in state ahead of the Queen’s funeral on Monday.

A special exception was made for Andrew so he could wear his military uniform during the vigil. He is no longer a working member of the royal family, but he was allowed to wear the uniform as a sign of respect for the late Queen.

He was stripped of his military titles and royal patronages after being accused of sexual assault. Joining the children were Camilla Queen Consort, Edward’s wife Sophie, and other members of the royal family.
