At several moments throughout
the emotional service Meghan was seen composing herself and later she was
pictured with Sophie, Countess of Wessex, with the two appearing to share a
tissue.
The mother-of-two had met the
Queen several times, and they took part in several engagements together when
Meghan was a working royal.
Meghan and Harry named their
youngest daughter Lilibet in tribute to the Queen, who met her namesake in June
for the first and only time when they were in London to celebrate Her Majesty’s
Platinum Jubilee.
On arrival at Westminster
Abbey, Meghan was seen giving her niece Princess Charlotte a comforting
smile as the seven-year-old looked around at her aunt.
The Princess arrived at the
event with her older brother, Prince George, and her mother Princess of Wales
and grandmother, Camilla, the Queen Consort.

Meghan was seen with Sophie during the ceremony
Meghan arrived with Sophie and
later sat next to her husband who had walked in the procession with the Queen’s
coffin from Westminster Hall to the Abbey.
During the service, Harry
appeared visibly emotional while Meghan kept stoic in support of her husband.
The Duchess opted for a sleek
ebony coat dress and midnight-black pillbox hat adorned with an elegant netted
veil, finishing off her look with a pair of delicate pearl earrings for the
somber occasion which celebrated the life of Britain’s longest-reigning
monarch.
