Prince Harry brought an end to the long running will he won’t he when he finally arrived at Westminster Abbey twenty minutes before the coronation of his father commenced, as part of a group that also comprised his disgraced uncle Prince Andrew. Also in the group were Mike and Zara Tindall and Andrew’s children Princess Beatrice and Eugenie, with whom he was due to take a place three rows from the front, and behind working members of the royal family like Prince Edward. As he walked into the Abbey, Harry was patted on the back by Eugenie’s husband, Jack Brooksbank. Harry wore a morning suit while his uncle Prince Andrew wore Garter robes.
A source told the Sun: “There were discussions that the seating could be arranged on line of succession. But that would have put fifth-in-line Harry front and centre—and with William and Kate. Instead the decision was working royals only at the front and work back from there. Harry will be a long way from his father.”
