Princess Beatrice was supported by her husband as she broke down in tears today.
The 33-year-old was comforted by Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi as she became emotional at a memorial service for her grandfather Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh. Beatrice could be seen reaching into her handbag for a tissue before covering her face with an order of service as she became upset at the event.
The princess was joined by many members of the royal family for the thanksgiving service, including the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. The Queen later arrived, joined by her son Prince Andrew, as she looked frail relying on the use of a walking stick.

The Queen, who was actively involved in the plans for Tuesday's memorial, attended the thanksgiving event despite recent reports that she may not be well enough to travel to London. She incorporated elements that were planned for Prince Phillip's funeral but were unable to go ahead due to the coronavirus pandemic.
The 95-year-old monarch only made the final decision to attend this morning and special arrangements have been put in place for her comfort. The service was limited to 40 minutes and the monarch sat in one of the Canada chairs but with an additional cushion.
