Harry attends Brackley Remembrance service as King leads London ceremony
Prince Harry attended a Remembrance Sunday service in Brackley, a town in Northamptonshire north of London.
King Charles led the national ceremony at the Cenotaph, where senior royals and political figures gathered.
The services honour Britain’s war dead and take place on the Sunday closest to Armistice Day on November 11, which marks the agreement that ended the First World War.
Harry wore military medals and a red poppy, reflecting his service in the British Army, including two tours in Afghanistan.
The separate appearances reflect Harry’s distance from official royal duties after he and Meghan left those roles in 2020.
Around 10,000 veterans and members of the Armed Forces community took part in the London event’s march past.
