NEWTON: Ok. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are bidding farewell to their royal life. They had their last scheduled royal appearance Monday. And at the end of this month, they will officially step back as senior members of the royal family. CNN's Max Foster was at Westminster Abbey for the event.</s>MAX FOSTER, CDNN ROYAL CORRESPONDENT: This is an annual service where all the senior royals turn out in force. It's very close to the Queen's car but actually all eyes and ears were focused on the Duke and Duchess of Sussex today as we saw them amongst the rest of the family for the first time since they announced their departure as senior working royals. Everyone was smiles. They seem to be getting on. And this is something that the royals do. They come together in public and they show a united front. So the Queen will be pleased with what she saw today. What happens now is that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex go off and they build a new life, largely outside the United Kingdom, but without compromising that royal brand. So the negotiation process around the departure continues. It will be reassessed next year and it will define how future royals can choose to opt out of royal duties as well. So it is quite defining, but it's interesting seeing the couple back in the United Kingdom, a huge amount of support for them, also some detractors for the way that they have rushed this process through. That a historic moment in terms of British history at least -- we now find out how the couple will define themselves going forward outside the royal fold. Max Foster, CNN -- Westminster Abbey, London.</s>NEWTON: And thanks for watching CNN NEWSROOM. I'm Paula Newton. "WORLD SPORT" is up next.
