Prince Harry and Andrew have won the fight to wear their military uniforms for special vigils set to take place for the late Queen at Westminster Hall
Harry, who saw action on the front line during two tours of duty in Afghanistan, had been denied the chance to wear his military uniform as he publicly mourned due to him no longer being a working royal.
"It was a ludicrous situation given the Duke of Sussex has served his country and is a highly respected member of the armed forces with everything he has done for veterans," they told the paper. It will follow the final Vigil of the Princes on Friday evening, which will see the Queen's four children - King Charles, the Princess Royal, the Duke of York and the Earl of Wessex - surround their mother's coffin for the 15-minute ceremony.'You could hear a pin drop': Mourners reveal 'breathtaking' atmosphere after paying respects to the Queen at ParliamentPicture: Alamy
