Why Harry and William Didn't Stand Together at Prince Philip's Funeral

The world watched Prince Philip's televised funeral service on Saturday, April 17. Members of the royal family were in attendance including Prince William and Prince Harry. The estranged siblings haven't seen each other since Harry and Meghan Markle's tell-all interview with Oprah Winfrey. Viewers are worried that Harry and William are feuding because of one noticeable thing: They didn't stand next to each other during the Duke of Edinburgh's funeral.

Buckingham Palace revealed that William and Harry will stand between Princess Anne and Mark Phillip's son, Peter Phillips, Us Weekly reports. The funeral took place at St. George's Chapel at Windsor Castle.

“These are practical changes rather than sending a signal. This is a funeral, and we are not going to be drawn into perceptions of drama,” Buckingham Palace told Us Weekly in a statement. “The arrangements have been agreed and represent Her Majesty’s wishes as well as the personal wishes of The Duke.”

The private ceremony had a maximum of 30 guests. In addition to the Duke's wife, Queen Elizabeth, other royal guests that were in attendance include Prince Charles, his wife, Camila Parker-Bowles, Kate Middleton, Prince Andrew, Princess Anne, Prince Edward, Prince Beatrice, and Princess Eugenie and their husbands.

Buckingham Palace announced the death of Prince Philip on April 9. The palace released the following statement:

He was 99 years old and passed away two months before his 100th birthday.
