Why was Prince Harry not wearing a military uniform Â
Because he and his wife, Megan Markle, resigned from royal duties, Prince Harry is not permitted to wear the military uniform. Currently, Harry and Megan Markley are currently non-functioning members of the royal family. William, who performs royal duties, is considered the next to conquer the throne.Â
Harry’s representative stated “Prince Harry, the Duke of Sussex, will wear a mourning suit throughout the funeral events as an honor to his grandmother.”Â
At the funeral, he is not entitled to wear the military uniform at any of the traditional events in the funeral, including the final vigil planned to take place in Westminster Hall. The royal family follows an ethic that the military uniform should be worn only the person who is undertaking the royal duty. Since Harry and his wife are not part of the royal duties, they are not allowed to wear the military uniform.Â

Harry leaped to the rank of captain and went through two tours in Afghanistan during the 10 years of his service in the military. He still continues to serve with his fellow servicemen, sponsoring aid for injured women and men. He has handed out his service as when required.Â
