Queen’s 96th Birthday: Prince William and Kate Middleton Tribute

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge wished the Queen her 96th birthday.

Prince William, 39, and Kate Middleton, 40, shared two photos on Instagram to mark the occasion, including a touching family photo showing the Queen and Duke of Edinburgh with some of their great-grandchildren.

The couple hailed the Queen as an “inspiration” in the accompanying post, writing: “Wishing Her Majesty the Queen a very happy 96th birthday today!

“Inspiration for so many people in the United Kingdom, the British Commonwealth and the world, it’s especially special to celebrate this #Patin Jubilee Year.”

The Queen will celebrate the day alone at the Wood Farm in Sandringham, after traveling past Windsor Castle yesterday.

The “modest” farm on the Norfolk estate is the place where her beloved husband, Prince Philip, spent much of his time after retiring from royal duties.

This comes amid new disappointment on the part of the royal family after Prince Harry filmed at the company in American television interviews

Prince Charles is said to be at the end of his relationship with his youngest son, as palace staff who cared for Her Majesty throughout the pandemic accused the Duke of Sussex of “breathtaking arrogance” for his speculation. that his grandmother needed extra protection.

He claims that she confides in him things she can’t talk about with anyone else. And in a thorny comment, he said of his visit to Windsor Castle last week: “I’m just making sure she’s protected and has the right people around her.”

He also risks further fueling the rift with his estranged older brother by saying that their late mother, Diana, Princess of Wales, is now watching him beyond the grave while “she did her thing” with Prince William and his family.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge continue as usual and are photographed to celebrate the Queen’s birthday.

The photo was first released from Cambridge after the Duke of Edinburgh’s death last year.

This comes after a new portrait of the queen with two of her favorite fallen ponies went on sale on the occasion of her 96th birthday.

Taken at Windsor Castle last month, the glorious photo shows the monarch standing with two of her favorite fallen ponies, Bybeck Nightingale and Bybeck Katie, in front of a huge magnolia tree in full bloom in early spring.

There is speculation that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex may be traveling from California. The couple stopped visiting the Queen in Windsor last week on their way to the Invictus Games in the Netherlands.

Harry said his grandmother “does not look forward” to her birthday in another interview on American television.

Asked about the Queen’s upcoming birthday in an interview with NBC Today host Hoda Cott, Prince Harry seems to have suggested that the Queen is “bored” with the festivities.

Speaking to the TV operator, he said: “I think she is … I think after a certain age you get bored of birthdays.

Mrs. Cott replied, “Do you think she’s tired of ’96?” “I think so,” Prince Harry replied. But the duke seemed to change direction when asked if the queen would be “bored” for her anniversary.

He replied, “No. I do not think so. Now it has several anniversaries and each one is a little different. I’m sure she’s looking forward to it.

This year’s Royal Windsor Horse Show will mark the platinum anniversary of Gallop through history, a spectacular equestrian show featuring horses from around the world.

It has been declared a “personal tribute to our monarchy” and will include more than 500 horses and more than a thousand performers who will take the audience on a journey from Elizabeth I to the Queen.

To the left of the queen is the pony Bibek Nightingale, and to the right is Bibeck Katie in the new image, and both animals will take part in the Gallop throughout history.

Her love for the world of horses is something she shares with her mother, and she has been breeding and racing horses for more than 60 years.

The Purebred, owned by the Queen, has won four of the five flat racing classics – 1,000 Guineas and 2,000 Guineas, Oaks and St Leger – with only the Derby escaping.

Her horse Dunfermline, ridden by jockey Willie Carson, gave the Queen her most famous victory, triumphing at Oaks and St. Leger in her silver jubilee year, 1977.

In recent years, the Queen has entered sports history when she became the first reigning monarch to win the Royal Ascot Gold Cup with her thoroughbred rating in 2013.

Her Majesty has already received birthday wishes from Prime Minister Boris Johnson and Labor leader Sir Keir Starmer, and gun salutes will be fired in her honor on Thursday.

Although she has not been able to ride for several months due to mobility problems, the queen has been riding horses since the age of three and is passionate about anything that is equestrian.

Elizabeth (accompanied by her horse Terry Pendry) was seen riding a horse in Windsor Castle on April 17, 2006.

The queen loved horses and especially horse racing. She will demonstrate many candid reactions to wins and losses during a race, this time when she was photographed applauding a horse on June 8, 1978.

Royal aides said she could not yet commit to any of the events planned to mark her 70th historic year on the throne.

But it is understood that employees are “moving heaven and earth” to ensure that she can attend the most prestigious competition meeting of the year – Epsom Derby.

This includes changing the route of her company car so that she can stop directly in front of the Queen’s rostrum, leaving a short walk of a few yards to the elevator straight to her place.

A source said the monarch “is really determined to be present”. The derby on Saturday, …
