After the Queen died on Thursday, Prince William and Kate, now known as the Prince and Princess of Wales, paid an unexpected visit to Windsor. Prince Harry and Meghan Markle joined them for the emotional visit.
Following a personal invitation from the Prince of Wales, Harry and Meghan joined the group.
They came into people who had gathered to pay their respects to the 96-year-old Queen, who had died peacefully in Balmoral.
The royals, dressed all in black, appeared sombre as they paused to shake the hands of heartbroken fans waiting behind a barrier. As they pushed their way through the masses, they were surrounded by police officers.
The two royal ladies wore stunning black gowns to match Prince William and Harry’s black outfits.
Harry and William had not been seen together at Windsor since the death of their grandfather, Prince Philip. Both appeared during the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations, despite the fact that neither was there.
Everyone applauded when William, Kate, and Meghan shook hands with members of the public alongside the royal spouses. A screaming child came to a halt as the Princess of Wales approached.
Meghan approached the youngster, placing her hand on her shoulder. The young lady then requested a hug from the Duchess, which Meghan graciously granted.
During her Jubilee celebrations, the late Queen Elizabeth II wowed the audience with a play starring the famed creature, and William was given a small Paddington Bear doll.
A Welsh flag was seen being flown in celebration of William and Kate’s new titles.
The royal spouses went separately, talking to people on opposite sides of the street.
William was seen talking about his late grandmother in a sad way with other people, but also making jokes with strangers.
For 40 minutes, they engaged with the people, getting flowers, balloons, and other gifts along the route. They arrived and drove away in the same automobile.
They were on an unexpected trip when Queen Elizabeth II died at the age of 96, surrounded by members of her immediate family. Kate and William issued an emotional statement on social media after learning the news.
“The Queen died quietly this afternoon at Balmoral,” the couple wrote on Instagram.
On Twitter, the Kensington Royal account @KensingtonRoyal now addresses Prince William and Kate as the Duke and Duchess of Cornwall and Cambridge.
Elizabeth II, the country’s longest-reigning monarch, was currently 96 years old and had held the post for more than 70 years. When his mother died, the Prince of Wales took over as King.
His Majesty has finally come. The funeral for the Queen will happen seven days after the King asks for a period of royal mourning after her death.
