Not just William and Harry. And not just Eugenie and Beatrice of York. Because the four of them have always been at the forefront. But there is also a second line, less known. But no less important for this
For the wake of Elizabeth of England, none of the eight grandchildren wanted to miss: from the most exposed in the spotlight to those less present in international magazines, Carlo's children, Anna, Andrea and Edoardo were all visibly moved - video 1 | video 2 | video 3 | video 4 | video 5
William of England is the new Duke of Cornwall: he will earn 23 million pounds a year - guard
WILLIAM E HARRY - Waiting for the final farewell to the queen, for which two million people are expected in London, the royal family is gathering around the queen who has reigned the longest of all. William, the new Duke of Cornwall and hereditary prince of his father Charles III, could certainly not be missing. It seems he felt difficult in accompanying the procession to Westminster Hall, because it would have reminded him of the funeral of his mother, Diana Spencer, who died when he was just 15 years old. But there was also the rebellious prince Harry, who was moved to tears in front of his grandmother's coffin, which made us despair. His father allowed him to wear the uniform, although he has no longer entitled to one since he left the Windsors.
BEATRICE AND EUGENIE - Obviously present also the princesses Beatrice and Eugenie of York, the daughters of Andrea, the third son of Elizabeth and a favorite of the queen before the sexual scandals forced her to deprive him of the titles. Criticized for a slightly too designer look at Thursday's procession, Beatrice has just become a councilor of state. For Eugenie, this may have been one of her last moments at home: her husband Jack Brooksbank has in fact obtained an assignment at the CostaTerra Golf and Ocean Club, a luxury resort south of Lisbon. And the couple may soon be moving.

ZARA AND PETER - Zara Philips, daughter of Princess Anne and her first husband, Captain Mark Phillips, is usually out of the spotlight. But this time she could not escape the flashes of photographers, at the saddest moment for the whole of the United Kingdom. With her her brother Peter Philips, former manager of Formula 1 and then at the Royal Bank of Scotland in Edinburgh, who separated last summer from her from Canadian Autumn Kelly.
LOUISE E JAMES - Finally, there were the children of Prince Edward, Earl of Wessex, the youngest of Elizabeth's heirs (and the only one ever separated from the four brothers). Lady Louise Windsor, still a student at St. Andrews University, by choice of father and mother does not have the title of Royal Highness, as does her brother James, who, according to the British tabloids, was the favorite of grandmother Elizabeth.
