The Queen visited Westminster Abbey earlier this week to mark the Centenary of the burial of the Unknown Warrior, and during the ceremony, flowers based on her wedding bouquet from 1947 were placed on the grave in an act of remembrance. Due to the ongoing Pandemic, the Royal Family did not attend the annual Festival of Remembrance, and instead the Prince of Wales and Duchess of Cornwall gave speeches during the pre-recorded Festival.

The Prince of Wales laid a wreath on behalf of the Queen, for the third year in a row. The Queen was joined by the Duchess of Cornwall, the Duchess of Cambridge, Sir Tim and the Countess of Wessex, as they observed the ceremony from the Balcony of the Foreign & Commonwealth Office. Following the ceremony, the National Anthem played as the Royal Family departed the Ceremony. Despite the second lockdown and the ongoing Pandemic, this was the Royal Family’s first joint event since March.

They laid flowers from their garden at the graves of two Commonwealth soldiers from the Riyal Australian Airforce and from the Royal Canadian Artillery before the Duke laid a wreath: “To all of those who have served, are are serving. Thank you.”
