More from Buckingham Palace now, where the Princess of Wales has met the first lady of Ukraine ahead of the Queen's funeral.

Kate held an audience with Olena Zelenska at the Palace this afternoon, shortly after the wife of President Volodymyr Zelensky visited Westminster Hall to see the Queen lying in state.

Downing Street had previously declined to confirm reports Zelenska would travel to the UK for the funeral, while her husband remains in Ukraine fighting Russia's invasion.

Wearing dark clothes and sombre expressions, presenters Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby were seen at the lying-in-state in Parliament on Friday.

There was outrage from some who believed the hosts of ITV's This Morning programme had somehow managed to jump the queue on Friday, while others contrasted it with David Beckham queuing for hours.

This Morning said the pair were there just doing their job as broadcasters and were filming ahead for a piece to be aired after the funeral.

In a statement on Instagram, it said: "We asked Phillip and Holly to be part of a film for this Tuesday's programme."

"They did not jump the queue, have VIP access or file past the Queen lying in state - but instead were there in a professional capacity as part of the world's media to report on the event."

So what do we know about what happened when the presenters visited this week?

A parliamentary source told the BBC the pair had been given media accreditation to cover the Queen's lying-in-state as journalists.

Reporters and photographers can apply for accreditation for the lying-in-state through Parliament's media centre. This is not just for those political journalists who already hold parliamentary passes to work in Westminster.

A UK Parliament spokesperson confirmed that they have given media accreditation to journalists who have requested access to Westminster Hall "for the purpose of reporting on the event for the millions of people in the UK and globally who haven't been able to visit Westminster in person".

Anything to do with reporters & journalism seem to get pass, even when the grandchildren were walking down the steps , the photographers were so close to them .. you'd think they were part of the family.

eBay is removing sales listings for wristbands for the queue to see the Queen lying-in-state in London.

Sellers were offering the paper coloured bands, which mark mourners' place in the queue as memorabilia.

The bands are marked as non-transferable and do not guarantee entry into Westminster Hall to file past the Queen's coffin.

A spokesperson for the auction website said: "These items are against our policies and we are removing them."

A few of the wristbands remained on the site under the header "new listing" on Sunday morning but did not link to an active auction or buy-it-now page.

Some used wristbands were attracting bids of up to £70,000 before they were removed, the Guardian has reported. However, it is not known whether the bids were genuine.

eBay allows tickets to past events such as concerts or sports fixtures to be sold as memorabilia. However its policy states it may prohibit the sale of tickets to events that are free to the public.

Its policy also says tickets for yet-to-take place events such as concerts, festivals, sports or theatre cannot be listed on the site.

I hope this isn’t true…because it’s because of his lovely wife I was starting to think he had matured into a decent human being…

He was shaking hands yesterday.
Nothing like the Duchess of Wessex who goes all out to reach everyone she can.

He does tend to wave a lot rather than shake hands but still acknowledges all its possible to.
From what I've observed watching the walkabouts

I've come too, to like Prince Edward and I really like Sophie his wife too.
His youngest Viscount Severn, is only 14, I think he did really good as well on the vigil last night.
He's not usually in the media spotlight and to have all those people filing past staring in your direction must have been a bit daunting.

Pity you didn't tell yourself this before whining over two TV presenters getting special treatment
