London — Britain's royals joined survivors and families of those who died in London's Grenfell Tower fire for a memorial service to remember the 71 people killed in the June blaze.
Prince Charles, his wife Camilla, Prince Harry, Prince William and his wife Kate arrived on Thursday for the multi-faith service at St. Paul's Cathedral, held exactly six months after the 14 June fire that engulfed a residential tower block in west London.
Emma Dent Coad, a lawmaker for the neighbourhood, said "emotions are still very raw" and the service was a "recognition that people from all walks of government are going to come down and grieve with them."
