Countess Mountbatten of Burma, one of the Duke of Edinburgh’s closest confidantes, will attend Philip’s funeral.

There were “some extremely difficult decisions” that the Queen had to make in her selection of the 30 guests permitted by Covid-19 restrictions, from an original 800-strong assembly, Buckingham Palace claimed.

At the service in St. George’s Chapel on Saturday, 67-year-old countess Penny Knatchbull, previously known as Lady Romsey and then Lady Brabourne, will be a part of the monarch, the Queen, Philip’s four children and eight grandchildren, and their respective husbands.

As a result of the postwar anti-German sentiment, three German relatives who had been denied a place at Princess Elizabeth and Prince Philip’s wedding have been invited to attend the wedding instead
