Prince William, meanwhile, opted to wear a smart navy suit and black tie. Members of the royal family will continue to observe the royal mourning period until Monday 26.
Their Windsor outing comes after William and Kate made an appearance at Her Majesty's incredibly moving state funeral held in Westminster Abbey. A sombre-looking Prince William wore his military uniform as he joined the procession walking behind the Queen's coffin.

Also in attendance were the Queen's children – King Charles, Princess Anne, Prince Andrew and Prince Edward – and their partners, the Queen Consort, Vice Admiral Timothy Laurence and the Countess of Wessex.
