Queen to behave with ‘extraordinary dignity’
Before Prince Philip’s coffin is lowered into the Vault, the Queen will pause and gaze at it in a loving goodbye to her husband of 73 years.
It has been reported that, despite her immense grief, Her Majesty “will behave with extraordinary dignity“.
Speaking to the BBC, Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby said: “We really have to avoid judging from anything external.
“She’s the Queen. She will behave with the extraordinary dignity, extraordinary courage that she always does.
“And at the same time she is saying farewell to someone to whom she was married for 73 years.
“I think that must be a very, very profound thing… in anybody’s life.”
