This is the touching moment when the Queen’s granddaughter, Princess Beatrice, was comforted by her husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi as they left the Queen’s funeral yesterday.
Beatrice, 34, looked emotional as she joined her family to say goodbye to the Queen at Westminster Abbey, before the Committal Service at St George’s Chapel, in Windsor.
Her sister Eugenie, 32, father Prince Andrew and mother Sarah Ferguson were also in attendance.

After the Committal Service, Beatrice, Fergie and Edoardo were photographed walking away, presumably to the nearby Royal Lodge where the Duke and Duchess of York live, despite being divorced.
In a touching moment, Edo reached out and placed it on his wife’s lower back for support.
Beatrice and Eugenie were known to be incredibly close to their grandmother, Her Majesty, and since she passed away on September 8, they have been seen emotionally in public.
They were sitting in the second row of Westminster Abbey when their ‘Grandma’ was buried this morning at a state funeral.
While Beatrice stood next to her husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, Eugenie stood across the aisle next to her husband Jack Brooksbank.
Beatrice could count on the support of her husband Edo Mapelli Mozzi, her mother Sarah Ferguson, her sister Princess Eugenie and her brother-in-law Jack Brooksbank

Later yesterday afternoon, they joined the Royal Family for the Committal Service in Windsor.
Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie placed a heartfelt tribute to their grandmother the Queen after her death.
In a statement from both sisters and posted to Eugenie’s Twitter account, they said:
“Dear Grandma, we haven’t been able to say much since you left us all. There are tears and laughter, silences and chatter, hugs and loneliness, and a collective loss to you, our beloved queen and our beloved grandmother.
“We thought, like many, that you would be here forever. And we all miss you terribly. You were our matriarch, our guide, our loving hand on our back that led us through this world. You taught us so much and we will cherish those lessons and memories forever.
Sarah Ferguson also supported her youngest daughter Princess Eugenie as she left the chapel today after the Queen’s wedding service

The Queen’s granddaughters, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie, appeared to be fighting back tears as they bid her farewell today at her state funeral in London
“For now, dear grandma, we just want to say thank you. Thank you for making us laugh, for taking us in, for picking heather and raspberries, for marching soldiers, for our tea, for comfort, for joy. You who are you will never know the impact you have had on our family and so many people around the world.
“The world is mourning you and the tribute would really make you smile. They are all too true for the remarkable leader that you are.
“We’re so glad you’re back with Grandpa. Goodbye dear grandmother, it was the honor of our lives to have been your granddaughters and we are so very proud of you.
“We know that dear Uncle Charles, the King, will continue to set your example, as he too has devoted his life to service.
The two sisters were seen driving away from Westminster Abbey in the same car as royal fans had come to pay their respects.
The two sisters watched as the queen’s coffin left the abbey to be wheeled to Wellington Arch. They stood with the other wives of the royal family and the queen’s cousins

‘God protect the king. With our love, Beatrice and Eugenie.’
They also posted a photo of themselves as young girls laughing with the queen while making a fuss about a dog.
On Saturday night, the sisters gathered with their cousins Prince William, Prince Harry, Zara Tindall, Peter Phillips and Lady Louise Windsor and James, Viscount Severn, to attend a vigil in honor of their beloved grandmother.
The Queen’s grandchildren surrounded her coffin to ‘guard’ him in silence as she lay in state in Westminster Hall as the audience passed by.
The wake followed two similar ceremonies performed by the Queen’s children the previous day at Westminster Hall and a few days earlier at St Giles’ Cathedral in Edinburgh.
Dressed in black and wearing black headbands, they stood in silence and bowed their heads as they attended the vigil, which until now had been reserved for male members of the royal family.
