A video from the funeral has taken the internet by storm. In it, Prince Harry can allegedly be seen not singing the British national anthem at his grandmother's funeral. His actions have been termed as "disrespectful".

While many are giving the royal flak others have also come to his rescue. Some have pointed out that the words have changed from 'God save the Queen' to 'King' and maybe he just needs some time to learn the new ones. Others pointed out that his lips are in fact moving, it's just that "He’s obviously not singing like he’s at karaoke."
