Just two days earlier the Queen braved the weather as she took an open-top car through Hyde Park to inspect the King's Troop Royal Horse Artillery on its 70th anniversary. She wore a brighter pink outfit on that occasion, receiving the royal salute from the servicemen and women.

It's been a busy time for the Queen, who presented her birthday honours last week. TV presenter Gloria Hunniford spoke about her meeting with the monarch as she collected her OBE at Buckingham Palace.

Gloria told HELLO! Online: "She gave everybody quite a long period of time and she was so affable and marvellous. And she had the most wonderful skin. I desperately wanted to ask her what cream she uses on her skin because it is so beautiful, honestly, and we were really up close. If she'd given me an opportunity, I'd have said, 'Ma'am, your skin is magnificent!'"
