Prince Philip Laid to Rest: Why Queen Elizabeth II Sat Alone at Intimate Funeral HD

Queen Elizabeth II sat alone at Prince Philip’s funeral service, but it was for a good reason. Abiding to COVID-19 protocols, members from each family were required to sit separately throughout the ceremony, which included the Duke of Edinburgh’s widow. In addition, Prince Harry needed to quarantine for five days after traveling from California to the UK. Royal Expert Omid Scobie told ET that Philip helped plan the funeral, and he intended for the ceremony to be a ‘much more private affair.’
