The rapprochement between the Prince Harry and the Royal Family seems to be consolidating more and more every day. If two years ago the second son of the new King, Charles III, had declared that he wanted to renounce any commitment to the Royal Family, today after the death of Queen Elizabeth, peace seems inevitable. But Harry, after giving up his duties towards his family, also had to abandon the military titles he had won over the years such as that of captain general of the Royal Marines.

Harry's rebellion, supported by his wife Meghan, however, also had consequences on the clothing worn during the ceremonies, in fact the Prince - according to the label - could no longer wear the official uniform. But after the death of the grandmother, something seems to have changed. In fact, for the vigil of the beloved Queen, the Prince was allowed to wear themilitary uniform. The event of the vigil is part of the rites to be respected at the time of the death of a monarch and provides for the presence of grandchildren to watch over the coffin. In this case there are the eight grandchildren: Harry, William and the princesses Beatrice and Eugenia, Zara Tindall and Peter Phillips, and Lady Louise Windsor and James, and finally the Viscount Severn.

To decide that the Duke of Sussex will be able to wear his military uniform was king Charles III. It was he who allowed his youngest son, a former Afghan war veteran, to appear in uniform for the cooling-off period of 15 minutes at westminster hall, where the queen's coffin is located. This ruling comes in days when it is rumored that, following the death of Queen Elizabeth II, Harry could return to his family, supported by his father - now his king, a first-person proponent of the truce.

This event is referred to as the Vigil of the Princes and it constitutes only one of the many rites that precede the definitive salute to the monarch.

After that, the Queen's four sons returned to London and continued the vigil at Westminster Hall on Friday evening.
