On September 16, two years ago today, King Charles led his siblings to carry out the Vigil of the Princes at Westminster Abbey.
Queen Elizabeth’s Vigil Of The Princes Was The Third Ceremony Of Its Kind
Charles, Princess Anne, Prince Andrew, and Prince Edward stood surrounding their late mother’s coffin for ten minutes as her body lay in state. Princess Anne made history as the first female to participate in the ceremony.
Slowly and in unison, they turned outwards. The Queen’s four children turned outwards. They were silent and motionless as they bowed their heads.
This was the four siblings’ final ceremonial tribute to the monarch, their mother, and the Queen. It was the third ceremony of its kind ever. The Vigil of the Princes is relatively new compared to other royal traditions. The royal tradition dates back to 1936, after King George V passed.

The late Queen Elizabeth II held many accomplishments in her life, both inside and outside of the royal family. She was the reigning monarch for more than 70 years — many people don’t remember a world before she was queen. She took her duties very seriously, becoming queen at the young age of 25 after her father’s death.
Now, it seems that another royal wants to follow in the late queen’s footsteps by taking on a task that few royal women have done — and it’s not who you think.

Prince William had a relatively normal college experience—dorms, dining halls, lectures—considering he’s a future king. What made it possible, at least in part, was something not so typical for the average college student: NDAs or non-disclosure agreements. The now-Prince of Wales’ friends, according to a royal author and expert, signed legal documents to “enable” William’s “ordinary existence” as a college student.
William went to the University of St. Andrew’s from 2001-2005
Now 42, William began attending college at Scotland’s University of St. Andrew’s in the fall of 2001. There he met his future wife, Kate Middleton. (A sheer dress at a fashion show played a key role in their romance.)
Starting out in college, William pursued a degree in art history—coincidentally the same as Kate. However, he later switched his major to geography as a sophomore before graduating with a Master of Arts in...

Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis reportedly have very different futures ahead of them compared to their brother, Prince George. While George is headed for life as a working royal, Prince William and Kate Middleton will encourage Charlotte and Louis to look outside the Firm.
William is in ‘full agreement’ with King Charles about a ‘slimmed down monarchy’
The Daily Mail’s Richard Eden wrote King Charles III and William are in agreement about having fewer working royals.
“What he told me left me worried about the future of the monarchy,” Eden wrote of a conversation he had with a friend of William’s about how the 42-year-old sees the Firm operating.
“The friend said William was in ‘full agreement’ with his father about the need for a ‘slimmed down monarchy.’”
“He told me, ‘When the older members of the family retire, His Royal Highness won’t be inviting anyone else to become working royals.

Lady Louise Windsor is likely to never know life as a working royal. An expert says it’s “doubtful” the 20-year-old daughter of Prince Edward and Sophie, the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh, will ever formally represent the monarchy. Instead, she’s poised to take after one of her non-working royal cousins. Why? The “most common complaint” about the British royal family: cost.
The ‘cost too much’ complaint is expected to keep Louise from working royal life
According to royal expert Jennie Bond, Louise isn’t on her way to becoming a working royal. Yes, even in light of King Charles III and Kate Middleton being diagnosed with cancer.
The reason, she told Ok! Magazine, is the “most common complaint” about the royal family, how much they cost taxpayers.

Prince William’s not king yet — he’s heir apparent to King Charles III — but he’s already got his work cut out for him. A royal commentator hopes the Prince of Wales, 41, will make two of his cousins working royals as king. Not Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie, who are reportedly upset their uncle hasn’t issued a call to duty. Rather, his youngest cousins, Lady Louise Windsor and James, Earl of Wessex, children of Prince Edward and Sophie, the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh.
A commentator wants William to eventually make his cousins, Louise and James, working royals

The royal family has been going through a lot ever since the start of 2024. In January, the palace announced that Kate Middleton had undergone a planned abdominal surgery and would be out of royal duties for about two months. Shortly after, King Charles revealed he had been diagnosed with cancer after undergoing a prostate procedure. And things only became more difficult when Kate Middleton announced she has been diagnosed with cancer as well.
Now, with Kate and Charles out on medical leave and Prince William and Camilla Parker Bowles taking care of them, the public could start seeing a lot more of Prince Edward, Charles’ youngest sibling.

Prince Harry‘s much-anticipated arrival at King Charles’ coronation seemingly went off without a hitch. The Duke of Sussex carried himself quietly, saying hello to friends and family as he entered Westminster Abbey on May 6. However, one royal reporter called the auto Harry arrived in the “car of shame.” Why does that mean?

King Charles III and Queen Camilla have officially been crowned. On May 6, the royal family waved to the public from the balcony of the Buckingham Palace following the king's coronation ceremony. Charles and Camilla were joined by many members of the royal family, including Prince William, Kate Middleton, and their three kids and the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh - Prince Edward and Sophie - and their two children. Prince Harry, however, was noticeably missing from the famous balcony shot.
A tradition initiated by Queen Victoria, the family has stepped onto the palace's balcony after major events since 1851 to greet the public. Though the group is curated for every occasion, the king and queen are typically accompanied by other working royals and their children. Since both Prince Harry and Prince Andrew are no longer working members of the royal family, neither had a formal role in the coronation ceremony nor appeared on the balcony afterwards.

Country and city are the two categories the late monarch’s granddaughters fall in, according to body language expert Judi James.
“There is a very large, pronounced divide between the behaviour [sic], styling and body language of the late queen’s granddaughters,” she said (via Express).

On Saturday, Prince Harry, Prince William and their six cousins stood in a Westminster Hall silent vigil to honor their grandmother, the late Queen Elizabeth II.
Princes Harry and William, Princesses Eugenie and Beatrice, Zara Tindall, Peter Phillips, Lady Louise Windsor and James, Viscount Severn all somberly surrounded the Queen’s coffin. The Princes wore military attire at the ceremony, and their cousins were dressed in all black.
Harry received special permission from King Charles III to wear the traditional uniform for the occasion. Following his March 2020 departure from the royal family, the Duke of Sussex was stripped of his military titles. During previous public events since the Queen’s death, he wore civilian clothing.
