Princess Eugenie Wears All Black to Mourn Her Grandmother
Princess Eugenie joined the rest of her royal family today to mourn the death of Queen Elizabeth II.
The princess arrived at the late monarch's state funeral at Westminster Abbey in London at 11 a.m. U.K. time, along with her husband, Jack Brooksbank, sister, Beatrice and her husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, her parents Sarah Ferguson and Prince Andrea, cousins, and other relatives.
She wore an elegant all-black look to say her final goodbye to her grandmother. The look consisted of an elegant black coatdress paired with matching tights and a brimmed top-hat. Her sister, Princess Eugenie, wore a similar ensemble to honor the life of the late sovereign. Brooksbank, meanwhile, wore a morning suit and tie with a pinned medal, like other royal family members.
On Saturday, Eugenie and Beatrice joined their cousins—the queen's other six grandchildren—at her vigil. For 15 minutes, they all stood next to the queen's coffin to pay their respects.
After, Eugenie and Beatrice released a joint statement through Eugenie's Instagram account, along with a sweet throwback photo of the late monarch posing with them when they were kids. In addition to sharing memories of their "Grannie," the sisters wrote, "We're so happy you're back with Grandpa."
Following the funeral service today, Queen Elizabeth II will be laid to rest at St. George's Chapel at Windsor Castle, the same place her husband of more than 70 years, Prince Philip, was buried following his death last year.
