Prince Harry paid a visit to his grandmother Queen Elizabeth ’s burial site on the first anniversary of her death. The Duke of Sussex was photographed at St. George’s Chapel in Windsor on Friday morning. The late monarch is buried with her husband Prince Philip at the King George VI Memorial Chapel.
HOLA! USA’s sister brand HELLO! understands that other members of the royal family paid their respects privately at the chapel on Sept. 8.
Friday marks one year since Queen Elizabeth passed away. Both Harry and his wife Meghan Markle , who reside in California with their children, were in the UK a year ago. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex were set to attend the 2022 WellChild Awards on Sept. 8, 2022, but their appearance was canceled after it was announced that doctors were concerned about Queen Elizabeth’s health. The monarch passed away that same day in Scotland.

While Harry was spotted in Windsor on Friday, his older brother and sister-in-law, the Prince and Princess of Wales, traveled to Wales, where they attended a service at St. Davids Cathedral and Catherine laid a bouquet of flowers down in front of a framed photo of the late monarch. In a message shared on social media, the royal couple said, “Today we remember the extraordinary life and legacy of Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth. We all miss you. W & C.”
