LONDON, ENGLAND: The state funeral and burial of Queen Elizabeth II at Westminster Abbey on September 19, 2022, in London, England, was a very somber affair. With over 2,000 attendees at Westminster Abbey to pay their respects to the late monarch, the royal family spearheaded the proceedings.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were seated behind King Charles and Queen Consort Camilla, and next to Princess Beatrice. While the Duke of Sussex was spotted fighting back tears during his grandmother's funeral, what piqued everybody's attention was how it looked like Prince Harry didn't join in to sing the national anthem. Towards the end of the funeral ceremony, the national anthem began with the new 'God Save the King' lyrics, while all the mourners aside from King Charles were spotted humming the anthem, hawk-eyed royals fan claimed that Prince Harry didn't join in.
