Taking to Instagram to share her thoughts, Jo commended William and Kate's "careful" decision to let their children attend the Queen's Platinum Jubilee celebrations this summer.

"Little did Prince George & Princess Charlotte Wales know that their stamina and orderly conduct at the Queen's Jubilee would be the training in attending their own Gan-Gan's State funeral," she said.

Princess Kate was a source of comfort for her children

Prince Louis, four, was not in attendance at the Queen's funeral due to him being too young, but Jo agreed that George and Charlotte's presence, "taking into account their ages and succession to the throne, was an absolute must."

"Such emotional life experiences embed memories that do profoundly hold a unique impact years later, one that you will both remember beside your loving nurturing parents.

"You did yourselves proud, your poise and grace outstanding, we cried when you did and we stood in silence and awe as we honoured with respect Her Majesty, your late great-grandmother," she added.

The TV star weighed in on the royal children's grief, recommending they take time to heal and seek comfort from their own family.
