Watch live as Archbishop of Canterbury leads Prince Philip memorial service

Your support helps us to tell the story

This election is still a dead heat, according to most polls. In a fight with such wafer-thin margins, we need reporters on the ground talking to the people Trump and Harris are courting. Your support allows us to keep sending journalists to the story.

The Independent is trusted by 27 million Americans from across the entire political spectrum every month. Unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock you out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. But quality journalism must still be paid for.

Help us keep bring these critical stories to light. Your support makes all the difference.

You will be able to watch the memorial service live here.

A memorial service is being held for Prince Philip, who died on Friday April 9, at Canterbury Cathedral.

The service is being lead by the Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby, who will address a small, socially-distanced crowd inside the cathedral as well as thousands across the country via a livestream.

The UK is officially in a period of national mourning for the next week, up to and including Philip’s funeral on Saturday April 17.

Next Saturday’s royal service in St George’s Chapel, Windsor Castle, will be like no other, with the Queen and her family wearing face masks and socially distancing as they gather to say their final farewell amid coronavirus restrictions.
