英國紋章院表示,菲臘親王的葬禮安排將會符合防疫措施,不會以國葬形式舉行,亦不會在葬禮前讓公眾憑弔,遺體在葬禮舉行前將繼續留在溫莎堡。
其實都係菲臘親王自己意願,唔想搞咁大
The Duke of Edinburgh is entitled to a full state funeral as he is the Queen's husband, so technically this could go ahead.
However, reports have stated that the prince is uncomfortable with the fuss of such a large event, and would prefer something more discreet.
Usually, he would be 'lying in state' at Westminster Abbey, before being buried in St George’s Chapel.
Instead, Philip hopes to have a private service at St George’s Chapel, Windsor, in the style of a military funeral, followed by burial at Frogmore Gardens.
According to sources, the prince has been heavily involved with plans for his funeral, after experiencing multiple health scares in recent years.
It is also said that only family, friends and heads of state from Commonwealth countries will attend the funeral, according to the Independent.

His death triggers a commemoration and funeral operation code-named Forth Bridge, which complies with the late duke’s request for minimal “fuss”.
