Princess Beatrice became tearful at Prince Philip's memorial
The Queen, who was actively involved in the plans for Tuesday's memorial, attended the thanksgiving event despite recent reports that she may not be well enough to travel to London. She incorporated elements that were planned for Prince Philip's funeral but were unable to go ahead due to the coronavirus pandemic.
These include hymns being sung, such as Guide me, O thou great Redeemer, which Philip had requested for his funeral as well as clergy from the royal estates of Windsor, Sandringham and Balmoral playing a part in the service, another of the Duke's requests.

The service comes nearly one year after Prince Philip's death and his funeral, which was held under pandemic restrictions with only 30 people in attendance at St George's Chapel in Windsor.
The Queen's husband, whom she wed in 1947, passed away aged 99 on 9 April 2021.
