Disgraced NBC anchor Billy Bush was in the Capitol Rotunda on Tuesday afternoon to pay tribute to his uncle, the late President George H.W. Bush.
Dressed in white sneakers and not wearing a tie, Bush stood with other members of the extended Bush family before the former president's flag-draped coffin.
They stood in silence for a few moments as members of the public watched them.
Bush appeared to choke back tears as he stood under the Capitol Dome.
When the family departed, Bush wiped away tears as he left the room.

Billy Bush is the nephew of the late president. His father, Jonathan, was George H.W. Bush's brother. That makes Billy Bush and former President George W. Bush cousins.
Bush became engulfed in a firestorm when a tape surfaced during the 2016 presidential campaign of an interview he conducted with Donald Trump in 2005, when he hosted 'Access Hollywood.'
In the audio, Trump could be heard talking about how you can treat women when you are famous: 'You can do anything... grab them by the p*****.'
Bush is heard laughing on the tape about Trump's failed effort to seduce a married woman. He also joined in on commentary about the appearance of actress Arianne Zucker, who he and Trump were about to shoot a segment with.

Bush was an anchor on the 'Today Show' when the infamous 'Access Hollywood' interview he had conducted 11 years earlier broke
Bush, who was an anchor on NBC's 'Today Show' when the scandal broke, fought to save his job.
But NBC suspended him pending an investigation and later fired him.
In October, the former TV host took to Instagram to talk about the incident.
'Two years ago today, my life went from order to chaos in a dramatic instant,' he wrote. 'I accounted for my small part, while the President and my employer walked away and still haven't accounted for their actions. These past couple years have been character building to say the least – anxiety attacks, fits of rage, feelings of betrayal and abandonment – and I have concluded that I am NOT extraordinary. Terrible things can happen at any moment to ANYONE,' he wrote.
He has largely been out of the public eye since his firing.
In January, he talked to People magazine about trying to rebuild his life.
After his firing by NBC, Bush and his wife Sydney separated after 19 years of marriage. The couple have three daughters.
'I was ashamed and embarrassed,' Bush told People. 'And then I went through stages of grieving because I lost my career. For a man, that's the ultimate degradation.'

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
