Well, he didn?t make his century but wasn?t far short. At least he died at home at Windsor and not in hospital. His wife will certainly be bereft after nearly 74 years. And his family of course. He was the centre of their lives for so long.
I suppose the funeral under Covid restrictions will be small and may well be private which is what he always wanted it was said.

@Curryong Yes, it is a comfort to know he died at Windsor Castle. Prince Philip has been at the center of the Royal Family, and Queen Elizabeth's life, since she was a child and since the beginning of her reign. I am happy to hear he wanted a small and private funeral, as you said with Covid a small funeral is all that is possible. Although we knew death was imminent, this news was still a shock this morning. May his soul rest in peace.

"The Duke of Edinburgh's death has fallen in the midst of unprecedented times as the nation remains gripped by the coronavirus pandemic. "

Prime Minister Boris Johnson pays tribute to the Duke of Edinburgh - LBC (https://www.lbc.co.uk/news/prime-minister-boris-johnson-leads-tributes-to-the-duke-of-edinburgh/)

In a statement outside Downing Street, Boris Johnson said:

"It was with great sadness that a short time ago I received word from Buckingham Palace that His Royal Highness the Duke of Edinburgh has passed away at the age of 99.

"Prince Philip earned the affection of generations here in the United Kingdom, across the Commonwealth and around the world.

"He was the longest serving consort in history, one of the last surviving people in this country to have served in the second world war at Cape Matapan, where he was mentioned in despatches for bravery

"And in the invasion of Sicily, where he saved his ship by his quick thinking and from that conflict he took an ethic of service that he applied throughout the unprecedented changes of the post war era.

"Like the expert carriage driver that he was he helped to steer the royal family and the monarchy so that it remains an institution indisputably vital to the balance and happiness of our national life.

"He was an environmentalist, and a champion of the natural world long before it was fashionable.

"With his Duke of Edinburgh awards scheme he shaped and inspired the lives of countless young people and at literally tens of thousands of events he fostered their hopes and encouraged their ambitions.

"We remember the Duke for all of this and above all for his steadfast support for Her Majesty the Queen.

"Not just as her consort, by her side every day of her reign, but as her husband, her strength and stay of more than 70 years.

"And it is to Her Majesty, and her family, that our nation's thoughts must turn today.

"Because they have lost not just a much-loved and highly respected public figure, but a devoted husband and a proud and loving father, grandfather and, in recent years, great-grandfather.

"Speaking on their golden wedding anniversary, Her Majesty said that our country owed her husband a greater debt than he would ever claim or we shall ever know? and I am sure that estimate is correct.

"So we mourn today with Her Majesty The Queen we offer our condolences to her and to all her family and we give thanks, as a nation and a Kingdom, for the extraordinary life and work of Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh."

Post by: wannable on April 09, 2021, 01:28:24 PM
The College of Arms, responsible for state ceremonial, has issued guidance on what to expect for His Late Royal Highness The Duke of Edinburgh?s funeral arrangements.

Quote
His Royal Highness The Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh

10 Jun 1921 - 9 April 2021

Funeral arrangements

The arrangements for the funeral of HRH The Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, will be announced by Buckingham Palace and will be available on the Royal website: The British Monarchy (https://www.royal.uk/).

The funeral will not be a State Funeral and will not be preceded by a Lying-in-State. His Royal Highness?s body will lie at rest in Windsor Castle ahead of the funeral in St George?s Chapel. This is in line with custom and with His Royal Highness?s wishes.

The funeral arrangements have been revised in view of the prevailing circumstances arising from the COVID-19 pandemic and it is regretfully requested that members of the public do not attempt to attend or participate in any of the events that make up the funeral.

Flag-Flying Instructions

All official flags, including the Union Flag, will be flown at half-mast from now until 08:00 on the day following the funeral. Flags may be flown overnight during this period but should remain at half-mast. Official flags in this instance are defined as Union Flags, the national flags of the home nations, ensigns and ships? colours.

Any non-official flags flying or due to be flown should be taken down and replaced with a Union Flag flying at half-mast. Official flags scheduled to be flown should be flown as planned but at half-mast.

Flags will be flown at half-mast during this period, including on days which would otherwise be flag-flying days. The only exception is when The Queen is present within a building or its precincts, at which time the Royal Standard will be flown at full mast.

The flag flown should be clean and in a state of good repair. When flags are flown at half-mast they should first be raised to the top of the flagpole, and then lowered to a point two-thirds of the way up, with at least the height of the flag between the top of the flag and the top of the flagpole. When lowering a flag, it should first be raised to the top and then lowered to the ground. Flagpoles which are more than 45 degrees from the vertical should fly no flag as half-masting is not possible.

The flying of flags on buildings of Her Majesty?s Government is determined by the Lord Chamberlain?s Office and administered by the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS), subject to the instructions of the Prime Minister, and the advice and guidance of Garter King of Arms.

This protocol will apply to Flag Stations (establishments listed in the Queen?s Regulations for the Army), naval and RAF establishments, at home and abroad; all British Embassies, High Commissions and Consulates; and on all buildings of Her Majesty?s Government, Parliament, agencies and devolved administrations throughout the United Kingdom.

Devolved administrations in Scotland and Wales will issue instructions for the flying of the Union Flag and others official flags on buildings in their estate and others as necessary. In Northern Ireland, the Northern Ireland Office will issue instructions for buildings covered by the Flags Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2000.

The Governments of the Commonwealth Realms, British Overseas Territories and Dependencies will be following the same flag protocol as set out above.

The instructions above are not binding on local authorities, public institutions, or others. They will need to take their own decisions as to flag-flying; but the above protocol may be useful for guidance.

The flying of flags in general is subject to planning laws, which state that flags may not be flown without planning consent, unless they fall into certain categories. For details of these categories please see http://www.college-of-arms.gov.uk/resources/union-flag-faqs. It also comes under the general oversight and authority of the Earl Marshal, in England, Wales and Northern Ireland; and Lord Lyon King of Arms, in Scotland.



The Titles of HRH The Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh

The Duke of Edinburgh was granted the style and title of Royal Highness on 19 November 1947; on the next day, 20 November, he was created Duke of Edinburgh, Earl of Merioneth and Baron Greenwich, of Greenwich in the County of London. These peerages are hereditary and on the death of His Royal Highness have passed to his eldest son, HRH The Prince of Wales. In the event of the Prince of Wales or any subsequent holder of these titles succeeding to the Crown, these titles and all others held will merge with the Crown.

His Royal Highness was made a Prince of the United Kingdom by Letters Patent of the present Queen dated 22 February 1957. A declaration of the same date communicated Her Majesty?s will and pleasure that her husband be known as His Royal Highness The Prince Philip Duke of Edinburgh.

His Royal Highness?s style and titles will be declared at his funeral by Garter Principal King of Arms, in accordance with custom.

Well, he didn?t make his century but wasn?t far short. At least he died at home at Windsor and not in hospital. His wife will certainly be bereft after nearly 74 years. And his family of course. He was the centre of their lives for so long.
I suppose the funeral under Covid restrictions will be small and may well be private which is what he always wanted it was said.
It has been reported in the past that he has said he didn't want to make a fuss, and that they  pre-planned his funeral decades ago with his wishes in mind.  Fuss or not, he will be sorely missed. We can be assured that he would not mind having the services made even less of a fuss because of COVID.

Indeed this is a very sad day but it is also one to reflect upon the most extraordinary life of the man born Prince Phillip of Greece and Denmark in 1921. Honestly despite the fact that he'd been recently hospitalized for four weeks,  I truly believed that we'd see him on his 100th birthday. For most people in the UK, he's been a constant presence in their lives much like his wife, the Queen.

There is also the additional sorrow that another member of the Greatest Generation who like so many  men and women of his era saw active service in WWII has now passed away.

My condolences to HM the Queen and their family members.

Here is the front page of the official BRF website. The background is black with a photo of the DoE and his dates along with the official announcement of his death. The site states that it will be temporarily unavailable until the appropriate changes can be made.

The British Monarchy (https://www.royal.uk/)

I'm glad that the DoE's wishes for his funeral are being respected and that it will be a  service at St. George's Chapel at Windsor Castle instead of a State Funeral. I do expect that might take some additional time to organize due to COVID 19.

As I recall, there's been speculation that Prince Edward, The Earl of Wessex is to inherit the title "Duke of Edinburgh." However I just read on another site that this will happen after the death of both of his parents. AFAIK, the title of DoE should go to the PoW as the eldest son for now.

Here is the official obituary from the BBC.

https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-10224525

QuotePrince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, won widespread respect for his steadfast and constant support of the Queen.

It was a desperately difficult role for anyone, let alone a man who had been used to naval command and who held strong views on a wide range of subjects.

Yet it was that very strength of character that enabled him to discharge his responsibilities so effectively, and provide such wholehearted support to his wife in her role as Queen.

As male consort to a female sovereign, Prince Philip had no constitutional position. But no-one was closer to the monarchy, or of greater importance to the monarch, than he was.

This is so sad.  He really was an extraordinary man.  He was the core of that family.  My heart goes out to the Queen, he was her bedrock.

The photo of him on the BRF website is beautifully done.

Condolence message from TM the King and Queen of Spain. They refer to The Queen as "Tia" or Aunt" and to the DoE as "Tio or Uncle." (While QEII and the DoE are  not King Felipe's actual aunt/uncle but rather they're distant cousins, it is a testament to the affection they feel for them.)



QuoteDear Aunt Lilibet,

We have been deeply saddened by the news of the passing of our dear Uncle Philip.

In these painful moments, we want to convey our deepest condolences on behalf of the Government and the Spanish people, as well as all our closeness and support.

We will never forget the occasions we were able to share with him and the legacy of service and dedication to the Crown and the United Kingdom that he has always played by your side.

Our thoughts and prayers are with your majesty and with the entire family.

With all our love and affection, Felipe and Letizia."

"Querida t?a Lilibet...": el cari?oso telegrama de los Reyes a Isabel II (https://www.vanitatis.elconfidencial.com/casas-reales/2021-04-09/muere-duque-edimburgo-reyes-telegrama-lilibet_3027704/)

QuoteA su majestad, la Reina del Reino Unido de Gran Breta?a e Irlanda del Norte, de sus majestades los Reyes de Espa?a". El encabezamiento del telegrama que han querido enviar los reyes Felipe y Letizia tras el fallecimiento del duque de Edimburgo a Isabel II no puede ser m?s institucional y, sin embargo, lo que sigue deja entrever que les unen m?s lazos familiares a?n que institucionales.

"Querida t?a Lilibet,

Hemos sentido una profunda tristeza al recibir la noticia del fallecimiento de nuestro querido t?o Philip.

En estos momentos dolorosos, queremos trasladaros nuestras m?s sentidas condolencias en nombre del Gobierno y del pueblo espa?ol, as? como tambi?n toda nuestra cercan?a y apoyo. Nunca olvidaremos las ocasiones que pudimos compartir con ?l ni el legado de servicio y dedicaci?n a la Corona y al Reino Unido que siempre desempe?? a vuestro lado.

Nuestros pensamientos y oraciones est?n con vuestra majestad y con toda la familia.

Con todos nuestro cari?o y afecto,

Felipe y Letizia".

I expect many more messages to be arriving from other reigning  and non-reigning royals with  many of whom being distantly related to both QEII and the DoE.

Two of her fellow reigning or formerly reigning Queens have been widowed during their respective reigns. Former Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands was widowed in 2002 and Denmark's Queen Margrethe was widowed in 2018.

Message from Crown Princess Marie Chantal (Greece)

https://twitter.com/MarieChantalUK/status/1380534330766856195

QuoteWe were all saddened to hear of the passing of HRH the Duke of Edinburgh, Prince of Greece. Steadfast and loyal, he served the Crown with selfless devotion. We will miss you

Here is a video of when BBC One announced the death of the DoE. The announcer is in black. The DoE's coat of arms is on a black background followed by photos while the national anthem is played.

Here is the statement from POTUS Joseph Biden.

QuoteOn behalf of all the people of the United States, we send our deepest condolences to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, the entire Royal Family, and all the people of the United Kingdom on the death of His Royal Highness Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh.
Over the course of his 99-year life, he saw our world change dramatically and repeatedly. From his service during World War II, to his 73 years alongside the Queen, and his entire life in the public eye ? Prince Philip gladly dedicated himself to the people of the UK, the Commonwealth, and to his family.
The impact of his decades of devoted public service is evident in the worthy causes he lifted up as patron, in the environmental efforts he championed, in the members of the Armed Forces that he supported, in the young people he inspired, and so much more. His legacy will live on not only through his family, but in all the charitable endeavors he shaped.
Jill and I are keeping the Queen and to Prince Philip?s children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren in our hearts during this time.

I found this one from the DM to have a treasure trove of photos from the DoE's youth and young adulthood. Many of these photos I'd never seen before and include ones with his parents and his cousin the late King Michael of Romania.

An Online Book of Condolence is now available on the Royal website for those who wish to send a personal message of condolence.

Visit The Royal Family (http://royal.uk) for updates from Buckingham Palace and information about The Duke of Edinburgh's life and work.

During the current public health situation, Books of Condolence will not be available for the public to sign.

The Royal Family ask that members of the public consider making a donation to a charity instead of leaving floral tributes in memory of The Duke.

I saw the message regarding the floral tributes and honestly I believe that the DoE would be pleased that people are being asked to make a donation to a charity instead of leaving flowers. I believe that this is what he would have wanted even if there was not a global pandemic.

QuoteThe Royal Family have the safety and wellbeing of the public in mind during these challenging times. The Family therefore ask that anyone wishing to express their condolences does so in the safest way possible, and that the public not gather at Royal Residences.

In accordance with public health advice, members of the public are asked to continue to follow the current Government coronavirus guidelines, particularly on avoiding meeting in large groups and on minimising travel, to keep themselves and others safe.

Members of the public may wish to consider making a donation to a charity of their choice, or one of The Duke of Edinburgh?s Patronages in memory of His Royal Highness, instead of leaving floral tributes.

I am truly impressed by the tone of these messages coming from Europe's reigning monarchs. They're formal but at the same time deeply personal, it's a testament to the relationship that Prince Phillip had with these current monarchs dating back many decades. The Danish message reminds us that Prince Phillip was also a Prince of Denmark as well as Greece and shows a photo of him wearing the Order of the Elephant.

Wow I logged in on my lunch break to take a break and now I am in tears. I dont think I have ever cried over a royal death. Sad, but not cry.

Philip was an extraordinary man. He had some definite quirks, but he was an amazing person. And he will truly be missed.

I am happy to know he passed away at home at Windsor, not in some hospital, as he would have wished. With his wife by his side.

My greatest condolences to the queen. 74 years of marriage, 4 kids, 8 grandchildren, 10 great-grandchildren with another to come. He has been her life since he was a teen. Her strength and support through her reign but also through so many tough times starting with the death of her father but so much more. I can't even fathom the grief she must be feeling today, the sense of loss. Yes at 99 she knew it was coming, but that still will not make the loss any easier for her.

My love and thoughts to the rest of his family as well. Fortunate that he saw the birth of Lucas and August before he died. Sad he won't be here to welcome Baby Sussex.

I know he always wanted a smaller funeral, and I guess covid answered, but it is still a shock to see one during it.

The message from the Bhutan royals.

Following the death of HRH The Duke of Edinburgh, the Abbeys tenor bell has begun tolling 99 times, once for each year of his life.

The tenor bell is the largest of the Abbeys ten bells and is traditionally tolled upon the death of a member of the Royal Family.

The only other sound that can make me emotional more than bells in tribute is someone playing Amazing Grace on the bagpipes in tribute.

While the BRF have requested that the public not visit and leave flowers, it appears that people are still gathering outside BP.


Also Princess Anne and Prince Edward were interviewed in advance of the DoE's death for a program to be released at his passing.

QuotePrincess Anne and Prince Edward have paid tribute to the Duke of Edinburgh following his death, aged 99. In interviews recorded for broadcast, the Princess Royal and the Earl of Wessex reflected on their loving relationship with their father and the nation's longest serving consort. Paying tribute to His Royal Highness, they shared their personal childhood memories of the Duke and the Queen, the famed Duke of Edinburgh Award and their father's lasting legacy. Reflecting on her father's "nomadic" childhood, which saw him smuggled out of Corfu in an orange crate, to settling in Paris as a young child, Princess Anne said: ?It must have been really quite difficult because he was that much younger than his sisters.

The British Monarchy website has announced that gun salutes will be fired tomorrow to mark the passing of the DoE.

Gun Salutes | The Royal Family (https://www.royal.uk/gun-salutes-0)

QuoteOn Saturday, 10th April at 1200, a Death Gun Salute will be fired to mark the death of His Royal Highness The Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh. Across the United Kingdom, in Gibraltar and on Her Majesty?s Ships at sea, 41 rounds will be fired at one round every minute for 40 minutes. The Gun Salutes will be broadcast online and on television, and members of the public are encouraged to watch from home.

In London, The King?s Troop Royal Horse Artillery will use the same guns that were fired for Her Majesty The Queen and The Duke of Edinburgh?s Wedding in 1947, and at The Queen?s Coronation in 1953.

The tradition of Gun Salutes being fired throughout the country to mark significant national events dates back to at least the eighteenth century, and there are historical records of salutes taking place as early as the 14th century when guns and ammunition began to be adopted more widely. Similar gun salutes were fired to mark the death of Queen Victoria in 1901.

A message from Crown Prince Pavlos of Greece which includes some family photos of Phillip that I'd not seen before.

Very appropriate for a naval officer, even though Prince Philip would probably have grumbled at ?the fuss?!

I had a thought while Phillip's funeral is likely to be CoE, I wonder if one of the Greek Orthodox clergy might be in attendance as well?

I expect Harry to attend his grandfather?s funeral, but I don?t think Meghan and/or Archie will join him. The Royal Central has a short piece on how Harry can break his quarantine in the UK on ?compassionate grounds?, and that will probably be the case.

Prince Harry will be permitted to attend Prince Philip?s funeral ?on compassionate grounds? ? Royal Central (https://royalcentral.co.uk/uk/philip/prince-harry-will-be-permitted-to-attend-prince-philips-funeral-on-compassionate-grounds-158161/)

The media are apparently parked around Harry and Meghan?s home in Montecito, waiting to see whether and when Harry will leave. Exactly what?s needed at this time.

I believe the whole RF knew that Prince Philip was very ill over the next few weeks, and given his age it was touch and go as to whether he?d be celebrating his 100th birthday. If that was so then probably travel and quarantine arrangements have already been made for Harry just in case, and he might well have already left his home before the crows gathered outside.

Perhaps under normal circumstances, but that would be one more person to add to the gathering, wouldn?t it, so I?m not so sure under current regulations. Apart from relatives making up the 30 allowed, I do wonder whether his valet, RPO or other close attendants might be there. It would be lovely if they were.

If this was a funeral under normal standards that would be wonderful. But with such limited people permitted, I don't think his vallet or RPO would make the cut.

Queen
Charles and Camilla
Anne and Tim
Andrew
Sophie and Edward
Louise
James
William and Kate
Peter
Zara and Mike
Beatrice and Edo
Eugenie and Jack
Harry

Thats 20 with just their kids and grandkids with spouses. 22 if Autumn (yes divorcing but still a chance) and Meghan (think may come) are there.

If they decide to include great-grandkids, anyone over 5 counts so Savannah, Isla, Mia, George and Charlotte would all count. That would bring us to 25-27 people.

I guess maybe if they decided it was not fair to invite just the Gloucesters and not the Kents or so on, they could invite a few of his staff for last 3. But it might be a bit odd in a mainly small private family funeral.


The people who are 'working' don't count towards the total. So a priest from the Greek Orthodox being there as well as a COE minister shouldn't count against numbers.

I would expect that there might be at least one Mountbatten family member present ie: Lady Pamela Hicks or her nephew the current Earl of Burma.

Also I agree @Curryong that neither Meghan nor Archie will be traveling to the UK for the funeral. Travel for a very pregnant mother and an under two on a trans Atlantic flight is not easy under normal circumstances and with COVID restrictions, it would be dreadful for all involved IMHO.

Harry will attend to Duke of Edinburgh?s funeral but Meghan and Archie stay in California because Meghan is pregnant must approve by OB/Gynecologist first before travel to UK

Title: Re: His Royal Highness, The Duke of Edinburgh-Death and Funeral thread
Post by: Curryong on April 10, 2021, 12:03:23 AM
I don?t think that Prince Philip was that attached to the Greek Orthodox Faith really, except for purely theological interest. I know Philip,was baptised into the Greek Orthodox religion and converted to the Church shortly before his marriage but growing up he attended Lutheran and Anglican Church services, depending on which side of the family he was staying with at the time.. I can?t imagine that at Salem and at Gordonstoun in the Thirties school authorities were searching around for a local Greek Orthodox priest to minister to him. Perhaps if Prince Andrea had lived and there had been close father/son contact to the end it might have been different, as Andrea was very much attached to everything connected to his homeland.

Attendants are very much regarded as ?family? in the RF (witness the friendship between the Queen and Angels Kelly her dresser. She was very very close to ?Bono? who was her dresser and had been with her since childhood.) Old nannies are and have been invited to family events. ?Back Stairs Billy the Page was a well known attendee at the QM?s funeral.

That sort of relationship is quite common in the BRF and has been since the days of Queen Vic and John Brown. IMO that would be doubly so for someone like a valet with years of service to the end, who no doubt helped and assisted in making Prince Philip comfortable over the last few years.

Lady Pamela is turning 92. With covid she may not be willing to take the risk to come for the funeral.

Philip was godfather though to Pamela's son Ashley Hicks. As well as to Norton, the current Earl of Burma. Perhaps we would see one or both. I know Norton is close to Charles (Charles gave Norton's daughter away at her wedding).

I know Norton was ill when his daughter wed. I don't know if he is better (not sure what was wrong). His daughter Alexandra could be another option. She actually named Philip godfather to her son Inigo.


@Curryong I agree their long time staff are seen often as family. Angela Kelly indeed. But this is not a normal funeral. There were hundreds of people at the funeral of the Queen Mother. So yes they included people like pages. Unfortunately with a funeral only allowing 30 people, and his children/grandchildren/great-grandchildren already bringing that number to 26, its highly unlikely they will over look his actual family members, for his vallet.

Norton Knatchbull was not just ill at the time of his daughter?s wedding. He was only just back in the fold after leaving his wife to look after the family estates, while he left to live in 2010 with a glamorous girlfriend in the Bahamas. That lasted for several years.

Penelope managed the estates very well (assisted by Alexandra) and when Norton came trailing back a year or two before the wedding at which Prince Charles gave Alexandra away, he was consigned for a while to a converted stable block as living quarters, but has his own quarters now in the house. He?s been ailing for years. They are a bit of a troubled family. The Countess took a very long time  to get over the death of a young daughter from kidney disease and the only son Nicholas was drug addicted for many years.

QuoteMod note:  Very interesting topic (I had no idea) but it should be in its own thread.  Let?s return to Prince Philips passing.  Thanks :flower3:

Ah man, that?s so unfair.  No matter what is going on between Harry and his family, he just lost his grandfather.  The media can be so obnoxious

I always loved they shared the hobby. He was so proud watching her competing in carriage driving.

I am sure he is smiling down on her. He never was one for muss and fuss. Likely the kind of mourning he would be happy for. Memories of him while out doing a hobby they both loved.

'The Queen has been amazing', says Countess of Wessex as she and Prince Edward leave Windsor Castle - YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cc8oOABCnME)

The Wessexes seen leaving Windsor Castle this morning. Sophie reportedly gave a short reply to a question and said that "The Queen was amazing."

The Queen and the BRF are entering into a period of mourning and therefore official engagements are being cancelled or rescheduled. As @wannable mentioned in the Cambridge engagements thread, Prince William was to deliver a speech at the 2021 virtual BAFTA awards but has now withdrawn.

@tiaras -Happy to see you posting again even though it is a sad occasion.

An lovely salute from London's famous black taxi car drivers who lined up outside of Buckingham Palace. Prince Phillip frequently drove incognito around London in his own cab.
QuoteDozens of London black cabs lined The Mall just hours after the Duke of Edinburgh's death was announced by Buckingham Palace - in a poignant tribute to the royal who drove a taxi around the capital for fun.

Prince Philip passed away peacefully yesterday morning at Windsor Castle launching eight days national mourning.

Shortly after the 99-year-old's death was announced, the drivers assembled in two columns along the thoroughfare which links Trafalgar Square and Buckingham Palace.

The Duke famously shunned a limousine and used to drive a black cab to travel incognito around London. He took delivery of the gas-powered taxi in the 1990s and used to ferry himself and others in the royal household to engagements around the capital, allowing him to travel around the city unnoticed.

Thank you for sharing. I really like that Prince Phillip is going to be lying in the private chapel at Windsor Castle. I know that it was damaged during the 1992 fire and that Phillip had a hand in redesigning it when it was rebuilt. I'm pleased to see that PM Johnson is turning down his invitation so that more family and friends can attend.

I notice the king's mother, Queen Mother Tshering Yangdon. His full brother Jigme Dorji and his wife were also in attendance. Dorji's wife is Jetsun's elder sister.

Prince Jigyel Ugyen was part of another ceremony in Thimphu. He is the king's nearest brother in age, and was heir presumptive until the birth of his nephews.

Its a beautiful ceremony, and a wonderful way to pay respect to Philip.

I am happy we will be able to see Philip's funeral next weekend. Even with a small paired down ceremony, we can still have a chance to take part in the ceremony honoring his life.

I presume after the funeral Prince Philip will be interred, at least temporarily, in the vaults at St George?s. It was always said that the Queen and Prince Philip would go into the George VI Chapel there permanently, but given that it?s very small and Princess Margaret had to be cremated in order to fit in, it doesn?t seem very likely.

As she has had such a long reign I?m wondering whether there will eventually  be a Queen Elizabeth Chapel put somewhere in St George?s (though where heaven knows.) The truth is, macabre as it sounds, the RF are running out of space for their final resting places. Frogmore is full. Perhaps there are plans for a mausoleum at Windsor, a modern version of Victoria and Albert?s, with room for their children, if required.

The messages of condolence and support the Queen and BRF have received from Presidents and other Royals alike have been very heartwarming. Some of course have a very personal connection, Norway, Luxembourg, Greece etc (and poor Kings Harald and Constantine are probably feeling their own mortality as they are in bad health.) The Spanish message was indeed especially warm. Sofia knows the British royals well. All of the messages from everyone have been very empathetic and warm, just lovely.

According to a press release from the Palace Household members of Prince Philip?s staff will walk behind the coffin following royal family members. Glad to read that as many had served him for decades.

There?ll probably be a live feed of the funeral for staff who can?t be there as well.

1 The coffin, covered with Philip's personal standard and a wreath of flowers, is borne by 1st Battalion Grenadier Guards from Windsor Castle's private chapel.

2 2.40pm. It reaches the castle state entrance. Accompanying the coffin will be the Dean of Windsor and the Lord Chamberlain. Those gathered in the quadrangle 'pay compliments'.

Royal Marines place the coffin on a Land Rover.

The procession sets off, led by Band of the Grenadier Guards, followed by the Major General's Party and the Service Chiefs.

3 The route is lined by representatives of the Royal Navy, the Royal Marines, the Highlanders, 4th Battalion Royal Regiment of Scotland and the RAF. Minute guns are fired by the King's Troop Royal Horse Artillery from the East Lawn. The Curfew Tower bell tolls.

4 2.53pm. The procession reaches St George's Chapel West Steps. A Guard of Honour and Band from The Rifles receives the coffin at the foot of the steps. The National Anthem is played as the coffin enters Horseshoe Cloister. A bearing party of Royal Marines carries the coffin up the steps.

3pm. Pause for a minute's silence. The Archbishop of Canterbury and Dean of Windsor receive the coffin. Only members of the Royal Family and Philip's private secretary, Archie Miller-Bakewell, enter the chapel.

The Service begins with the coffin carried to the catafalque in the Quire.

The Order of Service placed in the post above is in fact a mock-up by a tabloid, published in the last 24 hours.  It takes elements of the QM?s funeral of nearly twenty years ago, a very different affair and replaced the QM?s  details with Prince Philip?s. The Order of Service for PP including attendees for the funeral will probably be released on this coming Thursday.

I don?t think so, as he would have to fly over from Germany. Prince Philip had three surviving sisters (all now dead) who left children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. The youngest ones probably have never met Prince Philip or if they have, only once.

On the other hand Philip and the Queen have four children, three with partners, eight grandchildren, four with partners (one separated, one partner not coming due to pregnancy, two too young to be married.) They probably will all attend.

Philip lost many friends to death over the years, but also had some very close friends, including people who had visited him at Wood Farm to stay in the past year. There?s also the Kents, the children of his first cousin Marina, who might want to be invited to participate. He was especially close to Alexandra. They are all elderly but might want to be present.

There?s no evidence that Philip was extremely close to Prince Georg, so why would he occupy a seat that could be used by those who were much much closer to Philip?

With covid and restrictions, might be a lot for the 82 year old to come for the funeral from Germany.

Its more likely Philip's side will be represented by a few members of the Mountbattens.

Its nice his private secretary of 11 years will be in the chapel. I wasn't certain a staff member would make the guest list due to the small size permitted. Happy I was wrong.

I've been thinking that a new mausoleum might be built somewhere at Frogmore. I imagine decisions about the long term have already been made, and they have probably considered their descendants as well. The grassed area where so many of the royals are buried did not look full to me, but it doesn't seem appropriate for the Queen and Philip to be buried there anyway.

 A lovely little story from a retired White House butler.

Former White House Butler Reflects On His Service : NPR (https://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=99418917)

QuoteWhen reflecting on his fondest memory, Westray talks about a time in 1979 when Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip visited the White House. After dinner, Prince Philip went into the Red Room, next to the state dining room. Westray and his buddy were serving liquor. Westray says he was carrying the tray and glasses.

"The prince was in there by himself, which was odd, because everybody else had gone down to the other end of the building," Westray says. "I said, 'Your Majesty, would you care for a cordial?' He says, 'I'll take one if you let me serve it.' What do you do? I didn't do all that because I had the stuff in my hand. And he says, 'If you let me pour it, I'll have one with you.'

"... So he poured it, the one he wanted, and we took the same thing that he had. And we had our drink there together and had a little talk while we were there. He told us if we were ever over there in London to stop at Buckingham Palace and see him. Can you imagine the prince serving you? I enjoyed it. You know, we're not supposed to drink and carry on at that time. We're not guests. It was just the three of us in the room, so nobody knew what happened. And I drank my little cordial, we all drank, and had a little conversation. But that was one thing I'll never forget, having been served by royalty."

Sophie, Countess of Wessex, stopped to speak to a member of the congregation after the royals attended a church service this morning.

She shared touching details of Prince Philip's final moments with a parishioner.

She told the member of the Royal Chapel of All Saints at Royal Lodge in Windsor today: *It was right for him. It was so gentle.

*It was just like somebody took him by the hand and off he went.

*Very, very peaceful and thats all you want for somebody isnt it?

More stories from the public who had the opportunity to meet Prince Phillip over the years. My favorite was when he told an auditorium of Canadian students that the administration should give them a day off every year on the anniversary of his visit. Students roared in approval while admin looked at each other sheepishly. :lol: Another favorite was when he met a young woman in a specially modified wheelchair during a BP reception and they had a lengthy and enthusiastic chat about the wheelchair design and features.

The day I met the Duke: tales of tartan trews, wondrous wheelchairs ... and a keen eye for a hangover (https://www.telegraph.co.uk/royal-family/2021/04/10/day-met-duke-tales-tartan-trews-wondrous-wheelchairs-keen-eye/?WT.mc_id=tmgliveapp_iosshare_Aw75SrxfS43f)

Its lovely seeing the Wessexes and Andrew out and speaking a bit about Philip. You can tell all the memories of Philip have meant a lot to the family,not just the queen.

I had a smile when Sophie mentioned Philip ending up in ditches and when Edward said 'yes in the early days of coach driving' and she laughingly said 'no more recent as well'.

I agree with you re H/M message.  It was simple and brief but that?s fine - it was from their charity.   They don?t need to pour out their soul to the public on whole to prove anything.  No one does.  The  public duty is done now they can grieve in private. 

Also agree with your point about what a real man is.  A man gently and carefully caring for his child?s emotional needs is just as much a man as the one as Vine describes.  I find that rather judgemental.

I don?t want to speak ill of the dead. However ?real man? Philip regularly bullied and harangued his eldest son for years in a way I don?t expect Vine would appreciate her own husband doing (if she has a son.)

Also PM Harold Macmillan remembered the Queen on the verge of tears when he visited Balmoral during his tenure. It was in the middle of one of the the times in which the debate about whether some of  their children could be given the Mountbatten Windsor surname and Philip had obviously been giving his wife a verbal lashing about it.

Macmillan wrote about it in his diary in very uncomplimentary terms with regard to Philip and his sorrow about the Queen being upset. That diary was published after Macmillan?s death.

Obviously the Queen could stand up for herself when she needed to but there were also times when Philip was less her ?rock and stay? and more a thorn in her side that wasn?t needed.

An excerpt from the Express

In the biography, Ms Bedell Smith cited an entry in Mr Macmillan?s diary, in which he wrote: ?The Queen only wishes to do something to please her husband ? with whom she is desperately in love.

?What upsets me is the Prince?s almost brutal attitude to the Queen over all this.

?I shall never forget what she said to me that Sunday night at Sandringham.?

Mr Macmillan passed the problem onto his deputy, Rab Butler, and the Lord Chancellor Lord Kilmuir.

Mr Butler told Mr Macmillan in a telegram that the Queen had ?absolutely set her heart? on making a change for the Duke's sake.

Ms Bedell Smith wrote: ?By one account, Butler confided to a friend that Elizabeth had been in tears.?

I read on another site that Andrew, Edward, Sophie and Louise were the royal representatives for a special service today for the Windsor Estate workers. There was only room for four members of the BRF so there would be more space for the estate workers who were chosen by lottery. Space being limited due to social distancing requirements. The Duke of Edinburgh was the Ranger for the Windsor Park so he was very close to so many  of the workers.

His impatience, bouts of anger, and lack of tolerance were well publicized, but he had many admirable qualities and also mellowed in his older years. I think he was probably a very difficult man in ways, but in other ways he was very special, which I think Ms. Vine expresses very well. What I think is most interesting is that in later years he and Charles were no longer at loggerheads. I have often thought that his unusual childhood, which is sometimes considered more interesting than unfortunate, had to have had some negative consequences regarding interpersonal relationships with his wife and children. Yet, they are a functional family and his children are genuinely mourning his loss.

I always felt it was two personalities that just didn?t mesh.  PP - a man of action and PC - a sensitive artistic thinker.  It took years but it seems that as adults they finally, in not fully understanding, at least accepted one another. 

But to return to the article - arent both Men

Just yesterday my SIL was telling me that when her dad worked at Windsor Park, PP would show up, unannounced, come on in for a cuppa and a chat.  Just to see how things were going.  And apparently he did that all over the estate.

Regarding your comment about anger over what Harry and Meghan posted, I agree with you completely. In fact, I think the grandchildren have all stepped back and let the Queen and Prince Philip's children be the spokespeople. And I think that is the right thing to do, since theirs is the more significant loss. 

Regarding the article, I understand your comment, but I don't think she meant that to be a real man one has to be macho, but rather that the pendulum has swung way too far in the opposite direction. At least that's the way I took her meaning.

Makes it nice and easy to read.  Just sitting there posted, all ready for us.   :happy:

Interesting article that PP coffin may be wool.  It certainly would be environmentally friendlier than wood.

QuotePrince Charles invited Hains?worth?s to exhibit at his Garden Party to Make a Difference in 2010 to encourage sustainability.

In a speech, he joked: ?I have discovered a company that makes a woollen coffin ? coffins, ladies and gentlemen, to die for.?

Sales director Rachel Hainsworth said: ?He liked the fact the coffins are environmentally friendly, but also the fact that by using British wool we are supporting Britain?s farmers.?

Made from three fleeces, each coffin features a cotton lining and is 100 per cent biodegradable.

Woollen coffins were used as far back as the 17th century, but Hains?worth?s decided to reinvent the idea and have since placed a patent on it.

I always felt it was two personalities that just didn?t mesh.  PP - a man of action and PC - a sensitive artistic thinker.  It took years but it seems that as adults they finally, in not fully understanding, at least accepted one another. 

But to return to the article - arent both Men
Just yesterday my SIL was telling me that when her dad worked at Windsor Park, PP would show up, unannounced, come on in for a cuppa and a chat.  Just to see how things were going.  And apparently he did that all over the estate.
I believe that he was extremely interested in improving the estate and wanted to be as closely involved as he could be. Glad that the workers had a service for him.

I'm not surprised. I recall similar complaints for Ronald Reagan's funeral which seemed to have a longer ceremonial funeral. George H.W. Bush opted for a simpler one, so it had a shorter TV coverage.

The full text of the Duke of Cambridge's message and I fully agree that Prince Phillip would want them to "get on with the job."

QuoteMy grandfather?s century of life was defined by service ? to his country and Commonwealth, to his wife and Queen, and to our family.

I feel lucky to have not just had his example to guide me, but his enduring presence well into my own adult life ? both through good times and the hardest days. I will always be grateful that my wife had so many years to get to know my grandfather and for the kindness he showed her. I will never take for granted the special memories my children will always have of their great-grandpa coming to collect them in his carriage and seeing for themselves his infectious sense of adventure as well as his mischievous sense of humour!

My grandfather was an extraordinary man and part of an extraordinary generation. Catherine and I will continue to do what he would have wanted and will support The Queen in the years ahead. I will miss my Grandpa, but I know he would want us to get on with the job.








This is the statement from the Duke of Sussex on the Archewell site with a great photo of Harry and Phillip looking at each other. (Perhaps taken in November one year as Harry's poppy is visible.)

In Loving Memory (https://archewell.com/)

Quote

Statement from Prince Harry, The Duke of Sussex:

?My grandfather was a man of service, honour and great humour. He was authentically himself, with a seriously sharp wit, and could hold the attention of any room due to his charm?and also because you never knew what he might say next.

He will be remembered as the longest reigning consort to the Monarch, a decorated serviceman, a Prince and a Duke. But to me, like many of you who have lost a loved one or grandparent over the pain of this past year, he was my grandpa: master of the barbecue, legend of banter, and cheeky right ?til the end.

He has been a rock for Her Majesty The Queen with unparalleled devotion, by her side for 73 years of marriage, and while I could go on, I know that right now he would say to all of us, beer in hand, ?Oh do get on with it!?

So, on that note, Grandpa, thank you for your service, your dedication to Granny, and for always being yourself. You will be sorely missed, but always remembered?by the nation and the world. Meghan, Archie, and I (as well as your future great-granddaughter) will always hold a special place for you in our hearts.?

?Per Mare, Per Terram?



Now that the children of the DoE and QEII have released their own written or televised statements, I believe that it's appropriate for the grandchildren to release their own. Good to see the ones from Princes William and Harry this morning. That's a fantastic photo of the DoE with Prince George in the carriage.

QuoteThe Queen will not be left to 'walk alone' following the death of her beloved husband of 73 years.

Senior royals are coming together to ensure the monarch is accompanied by a member of the family on future public engagements.

Those who will be seen at her side are the Prince of Wales, the Duchess of Cornwall, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, the Earl and Countess of Wessex and Princess Anne.

Sources stressed last night that the Queen, who says Prince Philip's death on Friday has left a 'huge void' in her life, will fulfil as many commitments as possible once the two weeks of official mourning ends on April 22 ? the day after her 95th birthday.

They point out that she has always undertaken solo engagements, both before and after her husband officially retired in 2017. But it is understood there is a concerted effort under way to ensure she has more support in the future.

If this article is to be believed, then I am pleased that the senior royals mentioned in the article from the Daily Mail will be there to support the newly widowed Queen Elizabeth II. Also I would expect that her Gloucester and Kent cousins will be there if requested. However I do believe that Princess Alexandra may have unofficially retired as she's not undertaken any virtual or telephone engagements in several months.

Post by: TudorQueen on April 13, 2021, 12:41:14 AM
I find it odd they would suggest the queen would need 'an escort' for royal engagements.

While losing her husband is hard, Philip retired from public duties in 2017. It has been nearly four years since she started attending public engagements alone. Really her public role will change very little with the death of her husband.

Its her private life where she will feel more the absence. And hopefully her children, cousins and grandchildren will help fill that void.

Here is an explanation of who Philip's sisters married.   
Who are Prince Philip?s German relatives? | Tatler (http://www.tatler.com/article/prince-philip-german-relatives)
Title: Re: His Royal Highness, The Duke of Edinburgh-Death and Funeral thread
Post by: Curryong on April 13, 2021, 11:30:12 PM
It always amuses me when I read a lot of things about Prince Philip?s family in the British Press. The sisters all married NAZIS seems to be the theme of much of it. Well, no they didn?t.

Philip?s brothers in law seem to have run the gamut in loyalty to that organisation, ranging from Margarita?s husband who protected the founder of Gordonstoun Kurt Hahn as much as he possibly could before the Jewish Hahn fled, to Christoph of Hesse who was an enthusiastic supporter in the early 1930s along with his brother. George Donatus of Hesse, who was killed in a plane crash in 1937 along with almost his entire family, didn?t join the Party as a member until shortly before his death, though his brother Lou was a cultural attach? to the German Embassy in London at the time he wasn?t a Nazi either.

And really it?s quite comical that the British media seem to think that all Philip?s family should have been automatically pro-British throughout the 1930?s. Why? Philip?s father Andreas was a Greek Prince. Greece was neutral until it was invaded during WW2. He spent most of his latter years in comfy playboy mode with a mistress in the South of France.

Alice, Philip?s mother, had more relatives in Germany than she had in Britain and was fond of all on both sides. Her mother had been a Princess of Hesse. Her father, in spite of a lifetime career in the Royal Navy, was also German, something that stymied his career as First Sea Lord in 1914.

Yet these relatives, all of them German, with a touch of Danish and Russian, should, according to the British Press, have all settled in England after Alice?s incarceration in a mental institution and married British Dukes or something, instead of German cousins. None of his sisters ever lived full time in Britain and his brothers in law certainly didn?t. Where in their ancestry and way of life does automatic loyalty to GB come in?

Admittedly this attitude was understandable just after the war when Philip married, but to continue it on into the 1990s and today when his relatives regularly visited Philip and the Queen, though still living in Germany, is not. I?ve forgotten how many times I?ve read the inaccurate statements about Philip?s brothers in law all being Nazis in British newspapers and magazines. About twice as many as the price of Harry and Meghan?s Californian mansion being mentioned every time the Sussexes are written about in the Fail I should think.

What wonderful photos!! I have to say in the big group shot from 2018 that Isla Phillips looks so proud to be tasked with holding her baby cousin Lena. The then infants Louis and Lena look a little perplexed so I have to imagine that the Cambridges, Phillips and Tindalls were standing behind whomever was taking the photo and encouraging the whole gang to smile and laugh. I have this image of the dads and mums making all sorts of noises, smiles and funny faces to try and attract Louis and Lena's attention.

Being as how the DofE felt so strongly about the military I wonder what he would think of the Queen banning uniforms being worn at his funeral.  And if I were Harry and knew she banned them to spare my feelings I'd be really angry that she pointed out my shame in that way.  Rarely does she err in her judgment, so perhaps I am wrong.

And they were the only ones that did ''war'' service.  The poor Queen, the 2 of them are retired from Royal duties, the POW/DOC/Princess Royal have military honour titles/positions, the DoE was so proud of his own military service, it would have been nice to see them ALL dressed up. This is suppose to be about PP. ✝

But instead, mourning dress civi outfit for all.  :happycry:

The media have no doubt jumped to the conclusion that it will be mourning suits/clothing for all simply because of Princes Harry and Andrew.

The military uniform thing started with a report in the Times which may well have been incorrect.

However, we don?t know what Prince Philip?s wishes were regarding dress at his funeral. If he had wished for a full-on military funeral then surely he would have said so and it would have been granted. He obviously didn?t, except for touches like the military escort in the quad at Windsor. Philip seems to have wished for a no  fuss private funeral, or as near as could be for a Consort of his years, and that?s what he?s getting.

Good. Surprising though, as he probably didn?t see much of them over the last couple of years. It looks as though maybe the Kents or some newer married ins are going to be bumped in order to get the thirty mourners.

Excellent news and I'm glad that his sisters' family members will have representation.

As to the dress code for the funeral, I don't want to speculate on the reasons for civil dress which IMO will still look very elegant and respectful.

Excellent news and I'm glad that his sisters' family members will have representation.

As to the dress code for the funeral, I don't want to speculate on the reasons for civil dress which IMO will still look very elegant and respectful.


The military uniform is being reported by the Times, BBC, Harpers, et all others.  They are all saying it is a tradition dated back from Queen Victoria.  HM Queen Elizabeth II according to all the reports is breaking with tradition to keep the peace.

I was correct about Philip's sisters' descendants attending the service!

Yes, that is the article I was referring. It has unseen pictures of the 3 horsey princes at Ascot, Windsor and new to me, they'd go to Balmoral.  Last time visit was 2019, before the pandemic.

Goodness, Edward Kent looks young there. Ironic really that he is in morning dress when he served for over two decades in the army later in life though not in war zones unlike Philip. I don?t know where the receding chin he?s unfortunately had all his life comes from, though. Queen Victoria? Marina had a normal chin and his father was a very handsome man with a rugged chin.

The photo makes me wonder about the Duke of Windsor?s thoughts as he marched along beside his relatives. His brother?s death meant his niece?s accession to the Throne, making him even more of a yesterday?s man.

Odd seeing Edward so young. Almost forget he was not even 17 at the time of his Uncle's funeral (would turn 17 in October of that year).

He would graduate from Sandhurst three years later, why mourning clothes.


Though I know Philip wanted a small funeral, its still hard to picture what his funeral will be like on Saturday.


Happy his three great-nephews will be in attendance. So we now know 24 of the guests? The queen, kids (and spouses), grandkids (and spouses), Philip's private secretary and his three great-nephews. So 6 seats left. I am still certain at least one or two Mountbattens will attend.


I loved the photo of the couple with their great-grandchildren at the point. Such a wonderful photo :flower3:


I must say my favorite today has been Eugenie's tribute. Its by far the most personal tribute (outside photos). I found myself smiling and picturing the two together. Especially have the image of her burning their sausages on the grill at Balmoral and Philip rushing over trying to save their lunch from total ruin.

It seems very odd to me The Duke of Edinburgh, a war veteran, is having a military funeral involving all three branches of service and yet no royals are wearing uniforms. Clearly something has been done to save face.

I know plenty of people who served in the military here in Canada and they arent allowed to wear a military uniform once retired. They either wear a Legion jacket with their medals or just a regular suit   but I've never seen a former captain show up to an event in uniform after retirement. Once retired you are a civilian and civilians dont wear uniforms.

If youre an honorary air commandant or commodore in chief then yes but not just a retired soldier.

Edited to add thats my experience with people who served. Maybe Im wrong.

Even with that chin, there is still such a family resemblance. So many resemblances, in fact.  I suppose it is because there are so many common ancestors, but some had a very powerful genetic stamp.  Look at the POW's profile and you see George VI.  And Earl Wessex, the Duke of Kent, Prince William, all have a similar look.

I found this story about Prince Phillip and the late Margaret Tebbits to be a testament to his kindness to others. Mrs. Tebbits was paralyzed when the IRA planted a bomb at the Conservative Party Conference in Brighton. She only had the use of one thumb so being invited to BP for a State Dinner was going to be difficult for her.

Blunt end: Emily's Irish accent lacks teeth - The Mail (https://www.mailplus.co.uk/edition/comment/64553/blunt-end-emilys-irish-accent-lacks-teeth)

QuotePARALYSED by the IRA Brighton bomb, Norman Tebbit?s late wife Margaret fretted about a state dinner at Buckingham Palace because of her difficulty using cutlery. ?She was even more horrified on arrival to find that she had been placed next to Prince Philip,? Lord Tebbit recalls. ?However, the minute the first course arrived he handed his cutlery to the footman and then ate the entire meal with his fingers. Of course Margaret could then do the same. Yes it was planned in advance but I probably think it was planned by him.?

A short video with the DoE's orders and awards being prepared for Saturday's funeral. The familiar UK Orders ie: the Garter, orders from Greece and Denmark (his family heritage) along with those from Commonwealth nations will be on display. However there is simply not enough room for the over sixty orders collected over the decades.

Prince Philip's Medals and Insignia to be Displayed at his Funeral - YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=11oj7boKbCU)

QuotePrince Philip personally chose the insignia that will be on the altar for his funeral. The medals and decorations conferred on him by the UK and Commonwealth countries - together with his Royal Air Force wings and Field Marshal's baton, will be pre-positioned on nine cushions on the altar in St George's Chapel.

Definitely not surprised that Penny Romsey was invited. She and Philip were extremely close, have been for many years, and she often stayed with him at Wood Farm.

Quote from: PrincessOfPeace on April 15, 2021, 12:08:24 PM
It seems very odd to me The Duke of Edinburgh, a war veteran, is having a military funeral involving all three branches of service and yet no royals are wearing uniforms. Clearly something has been done to save face.

I know plenty of people who served in the military here in Canada and they arent allowed to wear a military uniform once retired. They either wear a Legion jacket with their medals or just a regular suit   but I've never seen a former captain show up to an event in uniform after retirement. Once retired you are a civilian and civilians dont wear uniforms.

If youre an honorary air commandant or commodore in chief then yes but not just a retired soldier.

Edited to add thats my experience with people who served. Maybe Im wrong.

Those regulations that I quoted from above are current ones for British Forces officers.

Anzac Day is our national day to honour our Diggers at Gallipoli and elsewhere. The Day includes a March and ceremonies at Memorials to dead Diggers. I?ve been to plenty of them. Most ex WW2 servicemen are dead now but at ones I?ve attended since 1970 many WW1 vets who were in the Light Horse in that War, winning fame for their exploits, wore their old LightHorsemen uniforms in the March.

Also hats and berets are often worn here by ex Viet vets as well. I?ve never seen serving Generals object to it and several of our GGs have served in the military and haven?t objected either.

The Earl and Countess of Wessex have viewed tributes left by the public and national leaders in memory of the Duke of Edinburgh.

Prince Edward and Sophie, Countess of Wessex, were joined by their daughter Lady Louise Windsor to look at flowers and wreaths outside St George's Chapel in the grounds of Windsor Castle on Friday afternoon.

@PrincessOfPeace - I especially enjoyed seeing the official tributes from the Canadian and New Zealand Governments as well as PM Johnson's wreath. A very impressive display to remember the longest serving consort.

I particularly liked this one Thrifty Duke of Edinburgh wore the same shoes from his 1947 marriage to The Queen for 74 YEARS | Daily Mail Online (https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9478763/Thrifty-Duke-Edinburgh-wore-shoes-1947-marriage-Queen-74-YEARS.html)

Reminds me of a passage from Samual Vimes, a character in Sir Terry Pratchetts Discwold novels, on economic injustice.

QuoteThe reason that the rich were so rich, Vimes reasoned, was because they managed to spend less money.

Take boots, for example. He earned thirty-eight dollars a month plus allowances. A really good pair of leather boots cost fifty dollars. But an affordable pair of boots, which were sort of OK for a season or two and then leaked like hell when the cardboard gave out, cost about ten dollars. Those were the kind of boots Vimes always bought, and wore until the soles were so thin that he could tell where he was in Ankh-Morpork on a foggy night by the feel of the cobbles.

But the thing was that good boots lasted for years and years. A man who could afford fifty dollars had a pair of boots that'd still be keeping his feet dry in ten years' time, while the poor man who could only afford cheap boots would have spent a hundred dollars on boots in the same time and would still have wet feet.

Definitely not surprised that Penny Romsey was invited. She and Philip were extremely close, have been for many years, and she often stayed with him at Wood Farm.
Yes, and she is from the Mountbatten side of the family, which is significant.  They must have spent a lot of time deliberating on some of the 30 seats.  I wonder what would have happened if the Duchess of Sussex had come.

All free to air channels in Australia are doing the same. That may well be partly due to the fantastic figures Channel 10 received for the Oprah interview, however as the Queen is still HOS it is also to be expected. However it is to be shown after ten thirty at night after the footy, on the most popular channels, (footy is incredibly popular here)  and so many might not be staying up for three hours worth of padding about Philip?s life as well as the funeral.

My household will be watching the funeral but not the accompanying stuff. Did a quick call around family and friends last night just to see who will be watching. As I expected a lot of over 50 year olds ?might? watch, millennials not interested. Gen X are ?might do?s?.

RELEASE the CANADA GEESE! Shipment of genuine maple syrup needs to be sent South ASAP to @Curryong in Victoria. :yesss:

On the return flight the geese can bring back...@Curryong gets to decide which Australian treat will be heading back to @Macrobug67 in  Ontario.  :happy20:  :bday10:

Well it wouldn?t be Vegemite, the black and salty sandwich spread that Australians believe is THE symbol of Australia. Everybody not actually born here ?gets? Vegemite.

Perhaps Tim Tam choc biscuits. An Aussie favourite.

Or maybe a delicious Aussie dessert like pav, covered with our fruit.

Thank God No Vegemite! Tim Tam Choc Biscuits it is!! With the homicidal geese, it might be better to use the  :bday10:

I believe that the Duke would really appreciate this exchange of culinary gifts between Commonwealth nations.  :high5: :friends:

Finally, that photo released by Mike Tindall today featuring Mia with her great-grandfather was so sweet.

LF posted the photo below in another forum discussing Philip and his sisters. I?m sure LF wouldn?t mind me going to the same source and posting it here. I consider it interesting as it comes from a 1947 visit Philip made to Germany to meet up with his surviving sisters.
I believe it was on this visit that the sisters commented on how alike Philip was to their father, in manner, voice, laugh etc. Of course they hadn?t seen him since before the war when he was a schoolboy/naval cadet. I think it?s quite rare to see a photo of Philip and his much loved sisters at that time.

Lieutenant Philip Mountbatten posed with his sisters, from left,...

Considering Canadian geese are homicidal insane Cobra Chickens, Curryong may not want any thing to do with them.  Just drop off the syrup and let them do their own thing.  Like bully a croc or two.

A flock of Canadian geese might be just the thing to wake everybody up in the morning, including the neighbours!

The beautiful photo in the highlands is my favorite released. Such a natural photo of a loving marriage.

Though the one with Mia is a close second for me.

The Swedish royals released some photos this morning. Queen Louise was Philip's maternal Aunt.

Prince Philip has been a great friend of our family for many years, a relation which we have deeply valued.

As well as

'Today, the Duke of Edinburgh is brought to the final rest.
The Duke visited Sweden several times. He passed, along with Queen Elisabeth, a state visit to both King Gustaf VI Adolf and Queen Louise - who was the Duke's aunt - as well as to the current King and Queen.
As a final greeting, the Royal Family has sent flower wreaths to today's funeral service in Windsor, which, on the occasion of the pandemic, is kept in a smaller circle.
In Stockholm, the big clock of the Riddarholm Church will be hitting between noon. 12.00 and 13.00 to honor the Duke of Edinburgh, who was a knight of Kungl. Serafimer order.'

Easiest thing here beforehand is find out who is who. PP and QE family unit is not hard.

TQs ONLY NEPHEW, ONLY , well, he is her nephew from her only sibling. We know here, but come on people. QE fid not hsve  like bros and sisters and 20 nieces and nephews.

She only had 1 niece and 1 nephew by Margaret and all reports have always been, she has been close to them.

Absolutely beautiful picture of Mia Tindall and Prince Philip captured by The Duchess of Cambridge.

https://twitter.com/KaylaAdams___/status/1383105314971607045?s=20

that is yet another family, normal, private  family picture Catherine has put out.
PPs death is not a surprise. The family doubt knew. I bet you Zara and  Eug went to visit their grandad with their newborns and take a private picture. The infants  will have this in their private photos.
All of the greatgrandchildren have a private picture even if Eug and Zara newborns will not be able to remember. Even if some of the kids are too young to remember.


OH, ARCHIE DOES NOT HAVE THAT. NO. NOT HIM. HE WILL MOST LIKELY NEVER SEE THE Q OR PCHARLES AGAIN EITH.

We don?t know, with Covid and everything else, including Prince Philip being desperately ill, certainly after Lucas Tindal was born that any photos could be taken of him with his great-grandfather. Nor do we know that Eugenie or her baby was able to be photographed with him either.

Nor do we know that Archie, who was after all several months old when he left GB, had his photo taken with his grea5-grandparents. I suspect he did and there are probably several photos of him with Philip just as there are with the older grandchildren.

This is a day when Harry, along with all the members of his birth family, attended his beloved grandfather?s funeral. He was close to Philip and undoubtedly is mourning him.

So please, can we at least have one day, the day of Prince Philip?s funeral, when we could just desist from insults about the Sussexes as a family. More especially when allegations are made about private photos or future visits than nobody besides the BRF can possibly know about.

I dont think so!! But Eugenie and Zara?s baby boy born before Duke of Edinburgh?s death but Eugenie?s baby boy born in February and Zara?s baby boy born last March but due coronavirus (COVID-19) and two newborn boy wouldnt remember great-grandfather but Zara?s two girls went see great-grandparents before coronavirus in Balmoral,Scotland

Perhaps Zara and Eugenie had the possibility?! Publicly we only had seen photos (either going to hospital or Windsor main gate) of Charles, Edward and Sophie days apart saying their last goodbyes when PP was still alive. Rumour (Windsor and Maidenhead civilians that live behind the north gate posted via twitter) was William and Kate entered Windsor before his death through the back west gate, which is usually closed and only for family members.  The herein mentioned allegedly according to the media received from PP his last wishes from each one of them, hence what each written dedication to him posted in their official instagram/twitter social media.

Note: Charles and William's had a past and future promise goodbye letter. Everyone else had a past (in memory) letter.

that is yet another family, normal, private  family picture Catherine has put out.
PPs death is not a surprise. The family doubt knew. I bet you Zara and  Eug went to visit their grandad with their newborns and take a private picture. The infants  will have this in their private photos.
All of the greatgrandchildren have a private picture even if Eug and Zara newborns will not be able to remember. Even if some of the kids are too young to remember.



I highly doubt it.  They may have had zoom calls to say something to Philip but in his last days I'm sure he wasn't up to having photos taken with babies.. or coming near them...

Allegedly as reported his last days was in his room (reading and eating at the time he wanted, QEII ate with him, no clocked per usual Breakfast Lunch and Dinner times), which is attached to the Queen's room. And went out to the garden twice in the 1.5 weeks.  (As I said a month ago, my dad after 1 month in hospital, nothing else to do, let him die in peace in his home, as he also wanted it that way). It's so similar to old people who know and accept its coming and have lived a wonderful life. He told me to help him do a one last round around the house, his office, the garden, 95 years old ✝.

Some articles today about PP's Will. Apparently he has left his GBP 10 Million and assets to the Queen, arts and books to the Royal Collection Trust, Carriage and Ponies to Lady Louise.   Which also brings the discussion of the tradition of leaving the bulk to the next in line, which has no tax deduction.  And the tradition of trust funds for everyone else or the tax rule of can't touch (everyone else) for 20 years to not get charged/debited as a inheritance tax.

Ok reading the news that Lady Louise is to inherit his carriage and ponies has made me a little emotional. They shared a very special love  of the sport.

Former King Constantine and Queen Anne Marie of Greece sent their personal wreath to the island of Corfu to rest inside the church where Prince Phillip was baptized.

According to this article the senior royal ladies: Princess Royal, Duchesses of Cornwall and Cambridge and Countess of Wessex will create a rota to ensure that QEII is not alone. For now, the visits will be outdoors on walks with the recently widowed Queen. IMO this is an excellent idea to be outdoors in the fresh air (weather permitting) with their dogs. Good exercise for the dogs  since we know that the Queen and the Cambridge households have puppies.

QuoteThe Royal Family have agreed to a rota system which will ensure The Queen is not alone following the death of Prince Philip.

Spearheaded by Princess Anne, the rota will assign members of The Royal Family to Windsor Castle at designated times to keep the monarch company.

The easing of lockdown restrictions in the past week means it is now possible for different members of Her Majesty?s family to visit her residence, so long as the rules on the day are followed.

According to The Daily Mirror, the royals will join The Queen for socially distanced walks with their dogs in Windsor.

The plans were made by The Princess Royal alongside the Duchess of Cornwall, the Duchess of Cambridge and the Countess of Wessex.

Wednesday will mark the first time The Queen has marked her birthday without Prince Philip by her side for nearly eight decades.

The Royal Family will really around her in the days, weeks and months ahead so she does not get lonely.

The Greek-Danish wreath left inside the church where he was baptized has made me a bit emotional.  The interconnections of the different royal houses is such a fascinating thing on its own, but it's really all about family members and how there are still those ties that bind. And we know that King Constantine and Queen Anne Marie have always been close to the British Royal Family.

So does ex King Juan Carlos of Spain and his family. I noted that at the time of the Diamond Jubliee when so many royals came to London, and at the time of King Felipe and Queen Leti?s State Visit a few years ago.

The Spanish and British royal families were quite closely linked due to Queen Ena of Spain being the daughter of Queen Victoria?s youngest daughter Beatrice. Ena (paternal grandmother to JC) was in England a great deal in her later years and really maintained regular contact with the British royals, as did/does JC?s estranged wife Queen Sofia and her brother ex King Constantine of Greece.

The three official BRF social media accounts have returned to their normal profile settings after observing their mourning period. After the death of the DoE was announced, the accounts had switched to a photo of the Duke and their monograms in the profile photos.

Yes he did and there are now at least three generations of recipients who have earned a Duke of Edinburgh award including one of his granddaughters-in-law the former Catherine Middleton.  :)

Mike Tindall speaks about the funeral of the Duke of Edinburgh and confirms that afterwards that all returned to their vehicles and went home.

https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-56940874

QuoteThe ex-England rugby player, who is married to the monarch's granddaughter, Zara, said Prince Philip would have liked the "beautifully done" service, which followed Covid rules.

It meant the Queen, 95, had to sit alone and just 30 guests could attend.

He also told of the impact Parkinson's disease had had on his father.

Speaking to BBC Breakfast, Mr Tindall said the loss of the duke was "always going to be difficult", but that the Queen was "amazing" at the funeral, which took place on 17 April.

"Having to see the Queen make a stand in terms of showing what the world is at the moment and sit on her own and be as brave as she was, I thought just summed her up as a lady," he said.

"Then the funeral finished and it was 'get in your cars and go home', but that is what was allowed, that is what the rules state, so that is what happened."

He said it was "tough" - but added the funeral had been "done so well" that he thought the duke would "be looking down and he would have actually been happier about the way it happened".

PRINCE HARRY
COPS URGENTLY TRIED TO WAKE HARRY
... With News Of Prince Philip's Death

Prince Harry got a phone call recently with some tragic news, but he never answered the phone and cops ended up at his door.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... back on April 9, someone from the U.S. Embassy began calling Harry just before 3 AM to inform him his grandfather, Prince Philip, had died.

It's unclear if Harry's ringer was turned off or whether he and Meghan were just sound sleepers, but no one answered. After repeated attempts, the Embassy rep called the Santa Barbara Sheriff's Dept. and asked if an officer could go to Harry's Montecito estate to inform him the Embassy was urgently trying to reach him.

The Sheriff's Dept. obliged and an officer rolled up to the gates of Harry and Meghan's estate and made contact with someone who went and told Harry he needed to call the Embassy STAT, and that's how Harry was informed Prince Philip had died.

There's some interesting subtext to this story ... the Royals are extremely upset that Harry and Meghan have gone public with their grievances over their treatment by the Royal Family, including allegations of racism. You gotta think they did not want Harry to learn of Philip's death through the media ... it would make the Royals look kinda heartless, so the scramble to get to Harry ahead of the death announcement is understandable.

Harry traveled back to Britain to see the Duke of Edinburgh laid to rest.

Will not happen again and she apologize for her actions at Duke of Edinburgh?s funeral

QuoteA woman has been fined for exposing herself at the funeral of Prince Philip,Duke of Edinburgh.

Marissa Scott exposed her breasts and shouted ?save the environment? following the national minute?s silence to mark Prince Philip?s death.

The offence took place outside Windsor Castle on April 17.

55-year-old Scott pleaded guilty to causing harassment, alarm or distress under the Public Order Act during an appearance at Slough Magistrates? Court.

As reported by the BBC, Scott said ?she wanted to show solidarity with the World Wildlife Foundation and save the planet? and ?she didn?t think it would cause any distress?.

Speaking from the dock of the court, Scott said: ?I behaved irrationally and stupidly out of character.?

Deputy Senior District Judge Tan Ikram described Scott?s behaviour as ?disgraceful?, ordering her to pay fines of ?150, in addition to prosecution costs of ?85 and a victim surcharge of ?34.

The Duke of Edinburgh's will is to remain secret to protect the "dignity'" of the Queen because of her constitutional role, the High Court has ruled.

https://twitter.com/PARoyal/status/1438534895777812484?s=20


Not exactly a breaking story. Sealed wills are the norm with the Queen and consort.

Post by: wannable on September 16, 2021, 10:57:34 PM
Prince Philip's will is to remain SECRET for 90 years to protect the 'dignity' of the Queen and 'close members of her family'

Quote
In a ruling published today, Sir Andrew ordered that Philip's will is to remain sealed for 90 years from the grant of probate ? the formal process which confirms the authority of an executor to administer a deceased person's estate ? and may only be opened in private even after that date.

Not only the public, but any member of Her Majesty's family can't publicly talk about it.

Quote
Sir Andrew said that, as President of the Family Division of the High Court, he is custodian of a safe which holds 30 envelopes ? each containing the sealed will of a deceased member of the royal family.

He said the earliest envelope is labelled as containing the will of Prince Francis of Teck, and the most recent additions are the wills of the late Queen Mother and Princess Margaret, the Queen's sister.

In 2007, Sir Mark Potter, then president of the family division, dismissed an application by Robert Andrew Brown for the unsealing of the wills of the Queen Mother and Princess Margaret.

Mr Brown claimed to be the illegitimate child of Princess Margaret and asserted that he had an interest in unsealing and inspecting the wills in order to establish that claim.

However, his claim was not accepted by the court and was struck out as 'vexatious and an abuse of process' ? a decision upheld by the Court of Appeal.

:P

Quote
The judge said he wishes to publish an annex to his judgment detailing the names on the 30 envelopes in the safe, but will not do so at present in case his decision to do so is the subject of a legal challenge.

Conclusion, IF anyone challenges it, HE will make a detailed annex. Another win for the BRF.

Post by: Curryong on September 16, 2021, 11:07:45 PM
But it?s not just Prince Philip. The wills of senior royals going back to Victorian days have remained sealed for the most part. I think it?s an excellent process simply because otherwise the tabloid press would be examining every detail and commenting on it. Whether this privilege will remain for future senior members of the RF as the 21st century progresses is another matter. In another generation it might well be considered elitist in the extreme.

Post by: Curryong on September 16, 2021, 11:32:35 PM
Yes, but the sealing of wills within the royal family only became customary when Queen Mary, then the Duchess of York, applied to have her father?s then her brother?s will sealed in order that the Press did not get hold of the fact that her playboy brother Frank had given jewels left to him by the Duke and Duchess of Teck to his mistress. The Press has constantly squealed for thirty years or more about the practice, calling it elitist and illegal. In fact the process is not confined to royalty. Anyone can apply to have their will sealed.

Yes, it is also in the quote of Sir Andrew about Queen Mary's brother, in ''his'' safe custody, that is his number 1 will received by his predecessor, from 1910 he now has 30 all from the BRF.  That is why he will give a period of challenge, if not he will make sure to add a detailed annex to all 30 wills and the future, hence I said another win for the BRF.

There?s a limit to what can be said on forums like this one. If you Google Philip?s name coupled with hers there are plenty of articles (and accompanying hints), also quite a bit regarding their closeness in bios by well known royal biographers.

And Penny herself isn?t a relative of Philip?s. She was the daughter of an extremely wealthy meat business mogul, who married Mountbatten?s grandson shortly after Earl M was killed.

Royal biographer Ingrid Seward implied in her book Prince Philip Revealed that the two may have enjoyed something that goes beyond a typical friendship:

Thank you to all who are sharing the articles and links :thanks:  I found this info from the DM article to be interesting. It seems to me that Prince Phillip was trying to ensure that his own children would have as much time with him as possible considering how  their mother's role limited her time with them. As someone who did not have  the same secure childhood that his wife did, Prince Phillip appears to have been wanting to provide his children with attention and love from their father.

QuoteThe images reflect how Philip was able to spend more 'quality time' with the children when they were growing up, given the demands made on the Queen.

He taught all four how to swim in the pool at Buckingham Palace and always saw them before bedtime.

And when the Queen's ten red government boxes arrived at 6pm sharp ? even at weekends ? and she disappeared to read them, he would delight in keeping the children amused, often playing hide-and-seek with them in the corridors at Windsor Castle.

 Seventeen year-old Lady Louise has joined her elder cousins in paying tribute to their late paternal grandfather by participating in the documentary. She speaks about her own personal involvement in the DoE Gold Award Scheme.

Agree with @Curryong that you should watch it while you can. It's definitely worth viewing IMHO.

I especially enjoyed hearing from his German great-nephew Prince Bernhard and Phillip's  son-in-law  Timothy Laurence as it was a rare opportunity to hear from family members that knew him but are typically not in the spotlight.

Thanks for sharing, watched it last night, a drop or two of the salty liquid wiped out with my bedsheet. What an extraordinary man, I love the fun and outdoor games he instilled, then with the DoE awards, the barbecue anecdotes, his adventure all over the world, all of it really.


Here's Gert's who has all the condolences letter of gratitude.

I enjoyed the documentary very much and I?m pleased that others have too. What I find remarkable about PP whenever I?ve seen docos, read biographies etc featuring his life is how full of gusto he always was from his youth. Philip may not have been overly-sensitive in many ways but he always grabbed hold of life and any opportunities and gave them a good shake! Extraordinary really when you consider his early life and its tragedies.

Not just exile from the land of his birth, but his parents separation, their anxieties about money (having to rely on relatives) and above all, his mother?s incarceration for years, which meant he didn?t have a home really for most of his childhood. Philip was more or less treated like a parcel, passed between his grandmother, sisters, uncles, aunts and family friends. And then of course his favourite sister and her family were killed.

That could have squashed the life out of him (as it did his father) and made him extremely insecure. I do think Gordonstoun and Hahn had a great influence on him, as well as the times in which he lived, with that ?Just get on with it!? outlook so many had. But Philip was certainly an outstanding man.

Good to see that HM and her family were determined to set an example by declining the offer to allow for more mourners to be present.
