The Queen will sit alone at Prince Philip's funeral, according to new reports.
Her Majesty will be isolated at the small funeral in Windsor on Saturday as Prince Philip is laid to rest.
The Duke of Edinburgh died aged 99 last Friday (April 9) and will be buried at St George's Chapel.
Because of laws in place to battle the spread of coronavirus, anyone attending a funeral must stay at least two metres apart from anyone not in the same household, Birmingham Live reports.
The funeral, which has 30 guests, will be "Covid compliant", according to reports.
The Telegraph reports that royal sources said the Queen would be alone at the funeral service unless a member of the Windsor bubble joins her.
Brigadier Archie Miller-Bakewell, Philip's private secretary, is reportedly the only person allowed to sit with the Queen due to these restrictions.
All public elements have been cancelled, although the ceremony will be televised and there will also be a national minute of silence at 3pm.
Philip's funeral is likely to attract one of the largest television audiences of the year - though perhaps not the biggest as that honour belongs to the Prime Minister whose televised address on January 4, announcing a new national lockdown, was watched by 25.1 million.
Guests at the funeral will wear face coverings and be banned from singing.
The mayor of Windsor, meanwhile, has warned Brits to stay away from the area.
Philip's grandson the Duke of Sussex and Meghan Markle were married in a ceremony at St George's Chapel at Windsor Castle in May 2018.
Months later the same venue hosted the wedding of another of Philip's grandchildren, Princess Eugenie, to Jack Brooksbank.
