Sophie Wessex comforts Princess Anne as Queen's coffin carried into Holyroodhouse
The Countess of Wessex was pictured comforting Princess Anne as she watched Queen Elizabeth II's coffin being carried into the Palace of Holyroodhouse in Edinburgh on Sunday. Sophie Wessex, 57, the wife of Prince Edward, 58, could be seen placing her hand on the Princess Royal's back in a supportive gesture as the coffin arrived after a six-hour drive from Balmoral. The Queen's children and their spouses watched on in solemn silence as soldiers from the Royal Regiment of Scotland carried the coffin to the Palace's Throne Room, where it will remain overnight.
