Prince Charles, Prince William and others laid wreaths of poppies to honor and pay tribute to those who have lost their lives in war. The Duchess of Cambridge and Duchess of Cornwall stood socially distanced on the balcony of the Cenotaph above Whitehall, and Queen Elizabeth, who usually stands between her daughter-in-law and granddaughter-in-law, instead stood on a separate balcony with her lady-in-waiting, who has been part of the Queen’s “bubble” during the pandemic. Everyone kept a safe social distance, even on the balconies.

There are usually large crowds, including members of the public as well as military families, gathered on the sidewalks to view the ceremony, but this year, the service was closed off to the public. On Sunday, while the Queen watched the Remembrance Day service from the balcony, Prince Charles laid a wreath on her behalf. This year’s scaled-down Remembrance Day service, which honors fallen servicemen and women, was a bit different from in the past due to the COVID-19 crisis.
