Also in attendance were Prince Edward and the Countess of Wessex's children, James Viscount Severn, and Lady Louise Windsor.
The royal couple's youngest child Prince Louis did not join his older siblings. There is no official rule that states children under a certain age are forbidden from attending the funeral of a Sovereign, though those very young may be permitted to stay at home given the emotional gravity of the historic day.

When asked how her children were coping after losing their great-grandmother, Kate revealed last week that "the children are doing well and they are being looked after at school."

However, one crowd member was told George was said to understand the loss of his great-grandmother more than his younger siblings. One well-wisher also explained: "She said they were keeping things as normal as possible for the children.
"She says the children were settling in well to their new school and Kate was grateful for the support. I joked I had to be quick because I had to do the school run and she said she was heading back to London to do it as well."

The royal couple's three children are nine, seven and four. They started at their new school on 8 September which was the same day Her Majesty died aged 96 at Balmoral. When reports broke of the Queen being ill, Prince William rushed to Balmoral to see his grandmother, while his wife Princess Kate remained in Windsor to collect the children from school.
