Princess Anne, the Queen's only daughter, was chosen by her mother to accompany the funeral cortege on the six-hour journey from Balmoral to Edinburgh.

The Princess Royal, 72, had a forlorn expression but remained composed as she was driven behind the hearse in a royal Bentley alongside her husband of thirty years, Vice Admiral Sir Timothy Laurence.

Nothing was left to chance in the Queen's funeral arrangements, meaning Her Majesty likely personally requested that her daughter accompany the coffin to the Palace of Holyroodhouse.

Princess Anne will also travel to London with her mother's coffin tomorrow, when it will leave Scotland by air, Buckingham Palace confirmed.
