Seeing as it is in St George's my friend is the succentor and will have a part in the service.

plans have been in place for many years, and were updated and reviewed regularly by Buckingham Palace staff in consultation with both the Queen and Philip.

A memorial service – not something the duke wanted – could be held at a later date
