The eight day period of national mourning has come to an end in the UK with flags on buildings being returned to full mast.
However, as is to be expected, The Royal Family continues to grieve at Windsor and are officially still in a state of mourning.
This royal mourning period will last well into next week meaning there will be no official engagements before then.
As part of the nationwide mourning which ended at 8am on Sunday morning, politicians, TV personalities and others have been wearing black, with flags buildings flying at half mast.
For the first few days of this period, only sombre music was played on radio stations, and political campaigning was suspended.
Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, died on April 9 at the age of 99. His death will bring a huge change to the royal way of life.
Amongst the things likely to change, The Queen is to live at Windsor Castle permanently from now on, and is unlikely to spend another night at Buckingham Palace.
According to the Daily Mail, the monarch, who turns 95-years-old next week, is now settled at Windsor Castle and is unlikely to ever ‘stay another night’ at Buckingham Palace.
The Queen will still return to her Central London residence for work and audiences, but is unlikely to stay there overnight.
It is possible that more audiences may be held at Windsor going forward, with the Prime Minister’s weekly meetings being relocated once in-person conversations can take place once again.
It has also been suggested that the Prince of Wales may assume some of his mother’s duties, including meeting ambassadors and high commissioners at Buckingham Palace.
The Queen will still spend the summer at Balmoral Castle and Christmas at Sandringham.
