Prince Andrew has been heckled by members of the public as he joined the procession prior to a service of thanksgiving to his late mother, Queen Elizabeth II.
On Monday afternoon, the Duke of York joined his siblings - Princess Anne, Prince Edward, and the new monarch King Charles III - as the four walked behind a hearse carrying their late mother's oak coffin.
The Royals were walking as part of a procession that saw the late queen's coffin transported in a hearse from the Palace of Holyroodhouse, down Edinburgh's Royal Mile, and to St Giles' Cathedral. Thousands of members of the public had turned out to pay their respects.
However, as the procession made its way down the Royal Mile, the Daily Mail reports that Prince Andrew was heckled by a man in the crowd.
The moment was captured by BBC News' live coverage of the procession, but microphones failed to pick up on what was said.
While shouting, the unknown man could then be seen being pulled out from the crowd.
Holyrood magazine editor Christopher Marshall then shared a video that appeared to show the aftermath of the incident:
While some social media users have found humor in the moment, many others agreed that it was not the time nor the place to heckle the prince.
"I think, in this situation, TOTALLY inappropriate. The man has just lost his mother," one Twitter user wrote.
A second added: "Regardless what this man has done, have a little respect for his mother."
The Royal Mile was surrounded by thousands of members of the public, who had turned out to pay their respects. Many in the crowd respectfully applauded, as the procession passed. Others called from the crowd saying, "God bless the Queen."
The car behind the hearse was transporting the new Queen Consort, Camilla, and Sophie, the Countess of Wessex.
Unlike his siblings, the Duke of York was not wearing his military uniform as he is no longer a working member of the Royal Family. Per BBC News, Prince Andrew was renounced of his military titles earlier this year, after settling his civil sexual assault lawsuit.
However, he is expected to wear his military uniform later this week during the final vigil in Westminster Hall.
Queen Elizabeth II's coffin is draped with the Royal Standard in Scotland and a wreath of flowers - containing dried white heather from the Balmoral royal estate - has been placed on top.
Those in attendance at the service include First Minister of Scotland Nicola Sturgeon and new UK prime minister Liz Truss.
