Elizabeth II is celebrating her birthday today at her country estate in East England. She’s expecting visitors. There will be no public celebration until the beginning of June.
The Royal Family marked the monarch’s 96th birthday on Thursday with a public tribute to Queen Elizabeth II’s lifelong passion for horses.
On social media, the royal family published a photo of the Queen in a long green coat, standing between two of her snow-white ponies – according to the information “Bybeck Katie” and “Bybeck Nightingale”. The monarch was photographed by photographer Henry Dallal at Windsor Castle in March. In the background of the shot, the trees and plants are beginning to blossom.
The now 96-year-old Queen is spending her day of honor privately at her country estate in East England, Sandringham. Family and friends are expected to visit. Publicly, the day is only commemorated with cannon shots.
70th anniversary of the throne is approaching
Bigger celebrations and the traditional “Trooping the Color” parade are not due until the beginning of June. With a four-day program, not only the birthday, but above all the 70th anniversary of the throne of the monarch will be celebrated this year.
Shortly before Easter, the Queen had received a visit from her grandson Prince Harry (37) and his wife Meghan (40). It was the couple’s first return since breaking with the British crown. After worrying about the Queen’s health in recent months, Harry said in an interview with the US broadcaster NBC that his grandmother was in top form. “I was with her, it was great, so nice to see her,” he added. However, after so many years, he thinks birthdays are getting boring for the Queen, Harry said, laughing. However, she is looking forward to the platinum anniversary.
The Barbie manufacturer Mattel brought out a Queen Barbie with a tiara and an elegant robe for the Queen’s birthday, which is said to be available in department stores such as Harrods or Selfridges. In the online shop, this was already shown as sold out on Thursday morning.
