As the Queen's funeral was televised live, people had one question: Why is Prince Harry sitting in the second row?
The prince joined the rest of the royal family at the state funeral at Westminster Abbey today (September 19), along with hundreds of foreign heads of state and dignitaries who traveled to London to pay their respects to the longest-serving monarch in British history.
The funeral was broadcast live to the public, with some even going to the cinema to watch the event, but viewers were shocked to see the Queen's grandson in the second row at the Abbey.
"Why is Prince Harry in the second row? Another poor decision by the royal family and truly disrespectful to Her Majesty the Queen who adored her grandson. Where is the 'unity' here?" wrote a user on Twitter.
Another commented:
"Remarkable piece of theatre, this. Still trying to figure out why Prince Harry is in the second row while a former rugby player sits in the front."
Someone said:
"To note that Zara Tindall and Peter Phillips, who do not work for the royals, are in the front pew, while the King's son, #PrinceHarry, is in the second."
Princi Harry hoqi dorë nga detyrat mbretërore kur u transferua në SHBA me gruan e tij, Meghan Markle, gjë që është edhe arsyeja pse ai u pa me një kostum në funeral dhe jo me uniformën e tij ushtarake.
Ai shoqërohej në rreshtin e dytë nga Markle, si dhe kushërinjtë e tij, princesha Beatrice dhe princesha Eugenie. Harry ishte ulur pas babait të tij, mbretit Charles III, dhe një rresht larg vëllait të tij, Princit William.
Në rreshtin e parë të Abbey ndodhej mbreti, mbretëreshë Camilla, princeshë Anne, bashkëshorti i saj Sir Timothy Laurence, princ Andreë, princ Eduard dhe gruaja e tij Kontesha e Wessex, Sophie.
Duke iu bashkuar princit William në të gjithë rreshtin ishin Kate Middleton, princesha e Uellsit, princi George dhe princesha Charlotte.
Joe Biden was seated much further back in the Abbey, in row 14. Other leaders attending the funeral included Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, French President Emmanuel Macron and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen.
