Prince Andrew has unexpectedly showed up to the funeral of the Duchess of Kent.
He arrived with Sarah Ferguson to gasps from members of the public as the two quickly made their way inside the cathedral. Senior members of the Royal Family – including King Charles III and the Prince and Princess of Wales – are gathering ahead of the service at Westminster Cathedral in London today. Queen Camilla has meanwhile been forced to pull out of the event after falling ill.
Andrew and Fergie were earlier seen leaving their home at Royal Lodge in Windsor today with a police escort ahead of the funeral.
The Duchess, who was the wife of the late Queen Elizabeth II’s cousin, will be laid to rest this afternoon. The event marks the first Catholic funeral for a Royal Family member in modern times. The private service will feature a message from Pope Leo.
