As he walked up the steps to the entrance, boos and whistles could be heard, while there were also come cheers from onlookers.

Speaking outside the Cathedral, Ms Hill said: “There is booing in the crowd there.

“Really, there is quite a lot of booing actually. A substantial amount. 

“I did not see that coming. That was quite a moment.

“We definitely haven’t heard that for any other VIP guest.”

The Queen herself will not attend the service this morning after experiencing “discomfort” following celebrations on Thursday.
