Princess Anne was comforted by Sophie, Countess of Wessex as her mother Queen Elizabeth's coffin arrived in Edinburgh on Sunday, in a touching scene ahead of the first public viewing of the late Queen on Monday.
The Queen's cortege completed its six hour journey from Balmoral Castle just before 4:30pm on Sunday and was greeted by crowds of mourners who quietly applauded.
Photos and videos are not allowed, and anyone who comes into the cathedral will undergo a security check. And thousands huddled on the A90 and roads throughout Dundee as the procession arrived in that city before 2.30pm. Onlookers were mostly silent as the cortege passed through, with some breaking out in applause.
