From Cenotaph to Westminster Abbey

After the Cenotaph, Kate joined the Service of Commemoration and Thanksgiving at Westminster Abbey. The traditional church service included an address from the Dean, readings by the New Zealand and Australian High Commissioners, children's prayers and a Māori waiata performed by Ngāti Rānana.

ANZAC ties and royal context

ANZAC Day remembers the Gallipoli landings of 1915 and honors Australian and New Zealand service members. Kensington Palace had announced the princesses' plans on April 15 — the same day the Duke and Duchess of Sussex were visiting Australia, where Prince Harry laid a wreath at the Australian War Memorial and attended the Last Post Ceremony.
