It was learned that the Spanish monarchs were invited, as were representatives of other European royal houses, who due to pandemic restrictions were unable to attend the funeral following the death of the Queen’s husband on April 9. For the funeral service on April 17, only 30 people were allowed to attend.
For this service, organized by Buckingham, they informed that it will be held on March 29 at Westminster Abbey, the same place where Queen Elizabeth and Philip were married on November 20, 1947.
For his part, the last time the Spanish kings traveled to London was in June 2019, at that time King Felipe received from the hands of Queen Elizabeth the distinction of knighthood of the Order of the Garter.
