QUEEN ‘HAD PIC OF PHILIP IN HER POCKET’ DURING FUNERAL
The Queen carried one of Prince Philip’s trademark handkerchiefs and a photo of them together in Malta in her handbag for his funeral, a royal insider has claimed.
Her Majesty, 94, kept both items in her handbag – an accessory she often uses to hold precious objects.
Both items hold sentimental value for the Queen and her marriage of more than seven decades to Prince Philip.
The white, folded square, inserted into the breast pocket of a sharply cut suit, was a strong feature of the Duke’s classic style.
And the couple kept Malta close to their hearts, the MailOnline reports.
