A third said: “William and Harry walking behind the coffin is a tough watch. Can only imagine.”

The brothers each paid a touching tribute to their grandmother following her death.

The Prince of Wales said: “On Thursday the world lost an extraordinary leader, whose commitment to the country, the Realms and the Commonwealth was absolute. So much will be said in the days ahead about the meaning of her historic reign.”
