William, the Prince of Wales, withdrew from the service at the last minute citing personal reasons, but it is unclear if his decision was at all linked to Kingston's death.
Prior to his marriage, Kingston had dated Pippa Middleton, the sister of Catherine, Princess of Wales.
The royal family has been rocked with bouts of bad news in early 2024, with Princess Catherine continuing to recover from abdominal surgery, while King Charles III has been diagnosed with an unspecified form of cancer.
