The paper dedicates its entire front page to the Prince and Princess of Wales as they met crowds and read tributes at the Queen’s Norfolk home at Sandringham House on Thursday. Prince William gave a heartfelt admission that walking behind the Queen’s coffin on Wednesday brought back childhood memories of the funeral of his own mother, Princess Diana, who died when he was only 15.

The purple Imperial State Crown seen on the coffin in the pictures is different to the Crown of Scotland, which was placed on Her Majesty’s coffin while in Edinburgh.
