Teary-eyed Princess Catherine and Queen Consort Camilla Attend Somba Remembrance Sunday Ceremony
In a heartfelt display of respect and remembrance, Princess Catherine and Queen Consort Camilla were seen attending today’s Somba Remembrance Sunday ceremony.
This marked the first ceremony since the passing of Queen Elizabeth II.
Standing on the balcony of the Foreign Office, the two royal ladies observed as their husbands laid wreaths at the cenotaph, paying tribute to the fallen soldiers of the nation.
Both adorned elegant coats and hats, with poppies pinned to their attire, along with diamond brooches.
At one point, Catherine appeared visibly moved, her eyes welling up with tears as she witnessed the proceedings.

Camilla, on the other hand, wore the same black hat she had worn to the Queen’s funeral in September.
Adding an emotional touch to the occasion, the two women paid tribute to Queen Elizabeth II, who passed away in September, by occupying the poignant empty space on the balcony where the late monarch would stand to witness the moving service in previous years.
It was a solemn gesture that resonated deeply with those in attendance.
The Remembrance Day service saw a strong presence from the royal family, who came together to honor the memory of Queen Elizabeth II and her unwavering dedication to war veterans.
Charles, the Prince of Wales, laid a fresh poppy wreath at the service, adorned with a ribbon in his racing colors, as a tribute to his late mother and late grandfather, George VI.
Meanwhile, Big Ben, which had been under maintenance and repairs for years, chimed eleven times at eleven o’clock, marking a significant moment during the service.
Undoubtedly, it was an emotional time for the royal family, as Charles led the country at the cenotaph for the first time as king.
Members of the royal family, including the Prince and Princess of Wales and Princess Anne, attended a touching event on Friday to remember the late Queen and her dedication to war veterans.
The 4th Battalion of Highlanders, Scottish soldiers from the UK’s armed services, played bagpipes and drums at approximately 10:40 am, momentarily pausing the march past the cenotaph.
At 10:58 am, King Charles III arrived, signaling the start of the military procession.
A solemn stillness engulfed the gathering as Big Ben resounded with eleven chimes, commencing the two minutes of silence.
Following the silence, military personnel performed the last post, a poignant tribute to those lost in the conflicts of the twentieth century.
Prayers and moments of reflection followed suit.
King Charles III then presented the nation with a national salute and laid a wreath at the cenotaph.
Additionally, a wreath was laid on behalf of Her Majesty the Queen Consort.
Continuing the wreath-laying ceremony, the Prince of Wales placed his wreath, adorned with the feathers symbolizing his position as the heir apparent.
His father had already set a wreath in place.
The Prince of Wales’s wreath, decorated in his colors, proudly showcased a new Welsh red ribbon.
The Earl of Wessex and Princess Royal also took their turn in laying wreaths, followed by one on behalf of the Duke of Kent.
As music played, the military parade stood at ease, and Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and Sir Keir Starmer led the rest of the wreath-laying.
The morning’s event witnessed the presence of numerous members of the Royal Family, including the Prince and Princess of Wales, Princess Anne, Prince Edward, and the Countess of Wessex.
Remembrance Sunday holds great significance in the Royal Calendar, as emphasized by the late Queen herself, who passed away nine weeks ago at the age of 96.
