Prince Andrew breaks down in tears, unable to hold himself back from crying during Queen Elizabeth’s funeral procession in Westminster Hall.

The Duke of York arrived in Westminster behind the Royal Navy’s state gun carriage carrying Queen Elizabeth’s casket, and in toe with his brother King Charles III, and sister Princess Anne.

He appeared to bite his lip right in the middle of the final procession.
