They have concerns about Prince Harry's attire at Prince Philip's funeral.
Prince Harry is among the small number of royals who will attend Prince Philip's funeral on Saturday (opens in new tab), but apparently there are concerns about what he will wear. There has been speculation that Harry will have to wear a suit to his grandfather's funeral because he has been stripped of his honorary military title as a result of his retirement from royal duties. Meanwhile, according to The Sun (opens in new tab), Prince William, Prince Edward, Princess Anne, and even the disgraced Prince Andrew (opens in new tab) are expected to wear regular attire, and Harry may be the outlier among them.
The royal family apparently does not want to create tension at Philip's funeral, and there are theories that William will wear matching suits with his brother, or, according to The Sun (opens in new tab), Harry may be allowed to wear a "basic" military uniform due to his years of military service There is a possibility that he may be allowed to wear a "basic" uniform because of his years of military service. However, it is ultimately the Queen's decision, and she is expected to decide how the family will dress at the funeral within the next few days.
In any case, Harry is said to be concentrating solely on his grandmother's wishes at the moment. A source told The Telegraph (via The Daily Mail (opens in new tab)), "[Prince William and Prince Harry] know that Saturday is not about them, but about honoring their grandfather's memory and supporting their grandmother. I would be very surprised if that was not at the center of their hearts. They would want to spend time together as a family, in the same time zone."
Nevertheless, the siblings are unlikely to meet before Saturday's funeral (open in new tab). Meanwhile, Prince Harry will return home to Meghan Markle and Archie the day after Philip's funeral.
