PRINCE PHILIP’S GERMAN, BRITISH KIN TO ATTEND HIS FUNERAL

British and German relatives of Prince Philip will be attending his funeral at the weekend, Buckingham Palace said on Thursday, in what will be a small family affair due to Covid-19 restrictions, Deutsche Presse-Agentur (dpa) reported.

Queen Elizabeth II, the couple's four children, eight grandchildren, the Queen's niece and nephew and three of her cousins will all be attending the service on Saturday.


In addition, the prince's German relatives Bernhard, Hereditary Prince of Baden, Prince Donatus, Landgrave of Hesse and Prince Philipp of Hohenlohe-Langenburg will be in attendance.

The Countess Mountbatten of Burma, a close friend of Prince Philip, will also be attending the service.


Some of the spouses of the queen's children and grandchildren have been included on the guest list.


But Meghan, the duchess of Sussex and Prince Harry's wife, is not going to the funeral due to her pregnancy. According to news agency PA Media, Buckingham Palace said the queen had some "very difficult" decisions regarding who was allowed to attend the funeral under England's current strict coronavirus rules.
