They had been expected to be absent from the funeral but it is understood the new Prince and Princess of Wales decided it was important for them to be there.

It comes as the King stood shoulder to shoulder with his grieving relatives as his late mother's coffin arrived at Windsor Castle this afternoon. 

The Queen's casket has completed its poignant final 25-mile journey from London to Berkshire to be laid to rest with her "strength and stay" Prince Philip. 

Thousands of mourners lined the streets and Long Walk to say their last goodbyes to Her Majesty, while tearful members of the Royal Family followed behind. 

They have now joined the 800-strong congregation inside St George's Chapel for a televised committal service, before the Queen’s coffin is lowered into the royal vault.

The Queen's coffin arrived at the Castle after being taken in a hearse scattered with flowers thrown by her beloved subjects on a final poignant procession.

Bouquets tossed by well-wishers along the route remained on its bonnet and roof after it slowly inched down The Long Walk.

Silence fell among huge crowds of mourners as the drummers, members of the armed forces and hearse passed.

Children were lifted on their parents' shoulders and phones were raised in the air as people struggled to catch a glimpse of the sombre scene.

Earlier today, members of the Royal Family previously watched as the Queen's casket was placed in the hearse following the moving funeral service.
