The post comes in the wake of a rare childhood photo of the Queen touched the hearts of her fans across the globe and the release of the Queen’s birthday photo—her latest official portrait.
Although the pair have always been close, it's evident that Her Majesty took a while to warm to her daughter-in-law, the Duchess of Cornwall. However, the images in this post, along with the Queen saying Duchess Camilla will be Queen, are a sure-fire sign that they've become very close.
The Cambridges also took to their social media to celebrate the big day, with an adorable post paying tribute to the close bond between the monarch, Prince William, and Kate Middleton.
