Rounding out the family segment of the procession will be the queen’s first cousins: Prince Richard, Duke of Gloucester, Prince Michael of Kent and Prince Edward, Duke of Kent.

Meghan, 41, and Harry, 37, were in the U.K. when Her Majesty’s health declined and the BetterUp CIO rushed to her bedside. He did not arrive before her death on September 8. She was 96.

“In celebrating the life of my grandmother, Her Majesty The Queen — and in mourning her loss — we are all reminded of the guiding compass she was to so many in her commitment to service and duty. She was globally admired and respected,” Harry wrote in a September 12 statement. “Her unwavering grace and dignity remained true throughout her life and now her everlasting legacy.”

The Invictus Games Founder continued: “Granny, while this final parting brings us great sadness, I am forever grateful for all of our first meetings — from my earliest childhood memories with you, to meeting you for the first time as my commander in chief, to the first moment you met my darling wife and hugged your beloved great-grandchildren. I cherish these times shared with you, and the many other special moments in between. You are already sorely missed, not just by us, but by the world over. And as it comes to first meetings, we now honor my father in his new role as King Charles III.”

Prince Harry's Military Uniform Drama: A Breakdown

Read article

The Archewell founders stepped down as senior royals in 2020 which has complicated their role in the mourning period. For the Wednesday, September 14, procession from Buckingham Palace to Westminster Hall, Harry wore a morning suit while William, Charles, Anne and Edward donned their military uniforms. Harry was stripped of his ceremonial military titles when he stepped down from royal duties. As a result, Buckingham Palace previously confirmed that he would not wear his uniforms for Elizabeth’s funeral events, but the decision was reversed amid backlash.

Harry served 10 years in the armed forces and completed two tours of duty in Afghanistan. He was able to wear his uniform while the queen’s grandchildren stood vigil at the queen’s coffin on Saturday, September 17. However, his grandmother’s initials were removed from his dress uniform.

Aly Raisman: A Day in My Life

Aly Raisman ’s life has looked quite different since she officially hung up her leotard and retired from gymnastics in 2020. But even though she’s not spending as much time at the gym, the former gymnast, 26, still makes it a point to live a healthy lifestyle. On a typical day in her life, Raisman will do a Pilates session to maintain her svelte physique. After years of intense training, the three-time Olympic gold medalist found that the method — which involves low-impact flexibility and muscular strength and endurance movements — not only benefited her body, but her mind too. “When I have a good workout, I feel more calm and I feel more connected to my body,” she told Women’s Health in January. “That is a very different answer that I would have given you a couple of years ago. If I were training, I would have probably said a good workout to me is when I push myself as much as I can … I think I pushed myself enough for most of my life. So, now I just want to leave the gym feelin...
