Prince Edward and
the Countess of Wessex’s son, James, Viscount Severn, has been
seen in public for the first time following the sad death of his grandmother
the Queen on 8 September.
While other royals have taken
prominent positions following the monarch’s passing, James has been keeping a
low-profile, likely due to his young age. However, on Wednesday he was seen
alongside his older sister Lady Louise Windsor as they paid tribute
to the Queen during a service that was held in Westminster Hall.
The 14-year-old looked very
smart in a black suit and was visibly moved by the occasion as he bowed his
head in respect to his late grandmother. His sister stood beside him looked
equally emotional.
Lady Louise looked incredibly
elegant in a black coat and matching hat. She also wore a pair of gold
earrings.
The Queen’s coffin was
transported to Westminster Hall on Wednesday, in a procession that was followed
by King Charles, Prince William, Prince Harry, Princess Anne, Prince Andrew,
Prince Edward and other royals.
Her Majesty will now lie in
state at Westminster Hall until her state funeral on 19 September. After the
service, she will be laid to rest in the King George VI memorial chapel
alongside her beloved Prince Philip, her father King George, the Queen Mother
and sister Princess Margaret.
