PRINCESS Charlotte cried after The Queen’s emotional funeral in a heartbreaking moment this afternoon.
The seven-year-old royal wiped her eyes and was comforted by mum Kate Middleton after saying goodbye to her beloved great-grandmother.
She had bravely remained incredibly composed throughout the immense ceremony in Westminster Hall.
And she was only seen crying when Her Majesty's coffin was lowered into the hearse at Wellington Arch.
Fans were left devastated by the scenes this afternoon. One wrote: "Is Princess Charlotte crying? Stop!"
Another said: "I didn't think I would cry & then heard the pipes start & then saw Princess Charlotte crying as the coffin drew up at the end as it went from the Gun Carriage to the Car."
