Prince William, Kate Middleton, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have reunited for the third time this week for a vigil to honour the Queen.

On Wednesday, the Cambridges and Sussexes walked and stood in unison behind the Queen's coffin following a procession, which departed Buckingham Palace and made its way to Westminster Hall, and later saw the Queen's coffin placed on a catafalque, where members of the public will now be able to pay their respects to Her Majesty.

After arriving in a car with Sophie, Countess of Wessex to the vigil, the Duchess of Sussex was seen standing alongside her husband, the Duke of Sussex, behind the Duchess of Cambridge - and newly-appointed Princess of Wales -, who stood next to her husband, the Duke of Cambridge and new Prince of Wales.

Despite having all attended the Platinum Jubilee celebrations earlier this year together, the occasion marked the first time the four in-laws had come together since the Commonwealth Day Service in 2020, prior to the Sussexes' move to the US. They were later seen attending a dinner at Buckingham Palace on Tuesday evening.
