The Queen’s coffin, followed by the royal family, makes its way along The Mall from Buckingham Palace during the procession for the lying-in state of Queen Elizabeth II.

Walking immediately behind the coffin were the Queen’s four children, King Charles III, Princess Anne, Prince Andrew, and Prince Edward.

Immediately behind King Charles was Prince William, the next in line to the throne.

“I was fortunate to share the last 24 hours of my dearest Mother’s life. It has been an honour and a privilege to accompany her on her final journeys. Witnessing the love and respect shown by so many on these journeys has been both humbling and uplifting,” Princess Anne said yesterday.

“Granny, while this final parting brings us great sadness, I am forever grateful for all of our first meetings—from my earliest childhood memories with you, to meeting you for the first time as my Commander-in-Chief, to the first moment you met my darling wife and hugged your beloved great-grandchildren. I cherish these times shared with you, and the many other special moments in between. You are already sorely missed, not just by us, but by the world over,” Harry said in a tribute to his late grandmother Queen Elizabeth.

Following the procession were Sophie, Countess of Wessex, and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, in a car.

Camilla and Kate rode together in the car in the procession.

The entire procession took about 45 minutes.
