Earlier on Tuesday, Kensington Palace said Prince William pulled out of a memorial service due to a personal matter.
He had been due to attend a service for the late King Constantine of Greece at Windsor Castle, but less than an hour before the St George’s Chapel memorial was due to start, it was announced that William would not be present.
Kensington Palace would not elaborate further.
