Kate joins King in rare second appearance for Remembrance weekend- live

King Charles is currently leading the nation in a solemn two-minute silence to honour those who have died in conflict.

The monarch appeared at the Cenotaph on Sunday mourning for the poignant ceremony as his son, the Prince of Wales, and sister, the Princess Royal, stood behind him.

The Princess of Wales has arrived at the Remembrance Sunday service at the Cenotaph.

As is tradition, Kate stood by Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh to watch from above, on the nearby Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office balcony overlooking Whitehall.

The current prime minister and former prime ministers have arrived at the service to lay a wreath at the Cenotaph in Whitehall.

Sir Keir Starmer was joined by newly appointed leader of the Conservative Party, Kemi Badenoch, and a number of former prime ministers including Rishi Sunak, Liz Truss and Tony Blair.

Reform UK leader Nigel Farage and Green Party co-leader Carla Denyer are among the politicians watching the Remembrance Sunday service from a balcony at the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office.

Only the heads of parties with six or more seats in Parliament, plus the leaders of the largest party from each of the devolved nations, lay a wreath at the Cenotaph during the service.

Reform has five MPs and the Greens have four.

This year’s Remembrance Sunday events are now beginning in Whitehall as thousands await the arrival of the royal family.

Some of the 10,000 veterans joining the The Royal British Legion’s veteran parade have begun marching past the Cenotaph in central London.

Those marching represent 326 different armed forces and civilian organisations.

More than 800 sailors, soldiers and aviators will also be on duty on Remembrance Sunday, representing their services at the Cenotaph and at commemorative services at Westminster Abbey and Westminster Cathedral.

This year marks the 75th anniversary of Nato and the 120th anniversary of the Entente Cordiale between the UK and France.

It also marks the 80th anniversary of the D-Day landings in the Second World War and the 25th anniversary of the end of the war in Kosovo.

Thousands of people are later expected to line Whitehall to take part in the two-minute silence.

Kate, who is in recovery, and Charles, who is still having treatment for the disease, also attended the Royal British Legion Festival of Remembrance on Saturday evening.

They were joined by the Prince of Wales who sat next to Kate on Saturday evening, and the poppy-wearing pair got involved in the night’s music, applauding Sir Tom Jones and singing hymns as well as the national anthem.

However, the Queen was unable to attend as she continues to recover from a chest infection.
