Harry was today seen wearing a suit for today's funeral after being stripped of his royal military titles.
But King Charles had previously offered an olive branch to Harry by allowing him to wear military uniform for the vigil for Harry’s grandmother, the Queen, at Westminster Hall on Saturday night.
There was speculation Harry, who served two tours of Afghanistan, would be blocked from wearing a military uniform for the vigil as he is no longer a senior royal.
But The Sun confirmed he had been granted special permission for the period of reflection.
The ruling was not a U-turn but a “one-off” decision by the King as a mark of respect for the late monarch.
