Zara, seated with Mia, pointed out Charlotte to her daughter, highlighting the close-knit relationships within the royal family.
The day was filled with more than just nostalgia.
Charlotte was also seen exchanging smiles with her father’s cousin, Princess Beatrice, who sat behind the Cambridge family.
As the congregation sang hymns, the two young royals shared a brief yet heartwarming connection, a small light in the midst of their collective grief.
Leading the service was the Queen herself, who arrived at Westminster Abbey arm-in-arm with her son, Prince Andrew.
Her presence was particularly poignant given recent concerns about her health, which had cast doubt on whether she would attend.
Dressed in a striking dark green coat and using a walking stick, the Queen took her place in the front row, flanked by Prince Charles and Camilla.
Despite the limitations imposed by the ongoing health crisis, special arrangements were made to ensure the Queen’s comfort during the service.
She ultimately decided to attend just hours before, showcasing her determination to honor her beloved husband.
The memorial service was structured to last only 40 minutes, allowing for a focused tribute to Prince Philip’s life.
In addition to the Queen, several other royals were present, including the Earl and Countess of Wessex, along with their children, Lady Louise Windsor and Viscount Severn.
The Princess Royal, Vice-Admiral Sir Tim Lawrence, and Peter Phillips, accompanied by his daughters Savannah and Isla, were also in attendance, reflecting the unity of the royal family during this time of remembrance.
