Britain's King Charles has led the royal family in a poignant display of respect for the late Queen Elizabeth — walking behind the late monarch’s coffin with his royal siblings.

Expressionless and looking straight ahead, Charles was joined by Princess Anne, and Princes Edward and Andrew as they followed the hearse carrying the queen’s oak coffin.
