Unlike what happened at the funeral of Prince Philip, where his children Carlo, Anna, Andrea and Edoardo, and nephews William and Harry wore military insignia, this time around, Meghan Markle’s husband may be the only one denied that honor. With the decision to build his life away from the palace, in California, the Duke is no longer an active member of the royal family, which means that he no longer has the right to wear the uniform and medals won on the battlefield in Afghanistan, his great pride. According to the dress code approved by the new ruler, Harry will be in civilian clothes, and an exception will be made for Prince Andrew.who, meanwhile, was stripped of titles and badges in January for sexual misconduct allegations against Virginia Roberts Giuffre.

As a “special mark of respect,” Andrea will be able to wear traditional military insignia in exceptional circumstances, the official statement said. A special treatment that will surely make Harry turn up his nose, who just yesterday shared touching memories of his “grandmother”, calling her his “commander-in-chief”. A clear sign of her connection not only to the late Queen, but also to the positions of RAF Air Commander Honington, Captain General of the Royal Marines and Commander-in-Chief of Small Boats and Diving Services, which she herself bestowed on her in the past and which he had to relinquish last year forever and ever. The olive branch meant little to his father, of whom just yesterday Harry wrote: “We honor my father in his new role as King Charles III.” A dry confession, which is not enough to rehabilitate him even on the day of the funeral of his beloved grandmother.
