("On Saturday, the royal family gathered at Windsor Castle for the funeral of Prince Philip, who died on April 9 at the age of 99.
Due to COVID-19 restrictions, it was a more understated affair than usual, with just 30 mourners in attendance and a scaled-back military procession.")
Notice the 999 which can flip to 666. His funeral was on the 17th. Only 30 mourners in attendance (done in 30?)
And they drove Philip's casket there in a... pick up truck?! The article says:
(“It was what he wanted, although it was slimmed down,” she told Page Six. “He wanted it to have his own personality, even designing the hearse from a Land Rover that almost looked like a fancy pickup truck.”)
Yeah, right. Prince Phillip wanted his casket carried in a pick up truck. I very much doubt that.
Also at Phillip's funeral there were no eulogies. The article insist, "He wouldn't have wanted his funeral to be about him."
No eulogies. Hmm. I guess "Loved raping children" wouldn't work. Reminds me of that joke:
There were two evil brothers. They were rich and used their money to keep their ways from the public eye. They even attended the same church and looked to be perfect Christians.
Then, their pastor retired and a new one was hired. Not only could he see right through the brothers’ deception, but he also spoke well and true, and the church started to swell in numbers.
A fundraising campaign was started to build a new assembly.
All of a sudden, one of the brothers died. The remaining brother sought out the new pastor the day before the funeral and handed him a check for the amount needed to finish paying for the new building.
“I have only one condition,” he said. “At his funeral, you must say my brother was a saint.”
The pastor gave his word and deposited the check.
The next day at the funeral, the pastor did not hold back. “He was an evil man,” he said. “He cheated on his wife and abused his family.” After going on in this vein for a small time, he concluded with, “But, compared to his brother, he was a saint.”
Several of the articles about it all begin:

Uh-huh.
