Queen Elizabeth marks 70 years on the throne
Queen Elizabeth says she is “inspired” by the goodwill of the nation as celebrations for her Platinum Jubilee begin
In a Jubilee message, Her Majesty thanked the public for organising events and says “many happy memories” will be made across the U.K.
Millions are gearing up for street parties to celebrate the monarch’s 70 years on the throne.
The U.K. will have a four-day bank holiday weekend to mark the special occasion.
There are a series of official events planned, where celebrities and supporters will flood the streets of London.
London will host the “Trooping the Colour” parade, while a Jubilee Pageant will be held through the streets on Sunday.
It’s believed Ed Sheeran will sing the national anthem with a choir made up of national treasures outside Buckingham Palace.
Prince Harry arrives for Platinum Jubilee celebrations
Prince Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle have arrived for celebrations.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are accompanied by their two children, Archie and Lilibet.
It is expected Queen Elizabeth will meet Lilibet for the very first time.
A spokesperson for Harry and Meghan say they are excited and honoured to attend the special occasion.
The pair will likely take a back seat in this weekend’s public affairs and will not be joining the rest of the royal family on the balcony for the official public appearance and photo.
Celebrating Queen Elizabeth
The Palace has released a new photo of 96-year-old Queen Elizabeth, taken in her private apartment at Windsor Castle.
The Monarch is wearing a pale blue Angela Kelly coat and dress, which is embellished with pearls and diamantes.
More than 3,000 beacons will be lit across the U.K. and Commonwealth in tribute to the Queen across the weekend.
