Prince Andrew, The Duke of York, will not be in military uniform for Queen Elizabeth's funeral.
Her Majesty's second son will be not be in his uniform for the state funeral or other ceremonial elements in the coming days. However, he will be back in military uniform for the final vigil around the Queen's coffin during the lying in state.
The disgraced royal stepped down from public life after the furore over his friendship with paedophile billionaire Jeffrey Epstein, and paid millions to settle a civil sexual assault case to a woman he claimed never to have met. In January, ahead of his legal settlement, his mother the Queen stripped him of all of his honorary military roles, including Colonel of the Grenadier Guards, and he gave up his HRH style.

Andrew, a former Royal Navy officer who served in the Falklands War, retained his rank as a Vice Admiral. While working royals including the King, the Prince of Wales, the Princess Royal and the Earl of Wessex will parade in military uniform at the state funeral and on other occasions in the next week, Andrew will not, apart from the vigil.
As a non-working member of the royal family, the Duke of York will wear uniform as a special mark of respect for the Queen at the vigil in Westminster Hall, sources said. It has not yet been confirmed whether the Duke of Sussex, Prince Harry - also a non working royal - will wear military dress.
Working members of the royal family will wear uniform when present at five ceremonial events during the period of mourning the Queen. These are the service of thanksgiving at St Giles' Cathedral in Edinburgh, the procession to Westminster Hall and service of prayer and reflection, the Vigil at Westminster Hall, and, next Monday, the state funeral at Westminster Abbey and the committal service at St George's Chapel Windsor.
