Soldier faints during Queen’s 90th birthday service

The royal family came together to celebrate the Queen – who’s birthday is actually April 21 – but it was little Charlotte who stole the show.

People probably won’t remember the incident, anyway, after seeing Princess Charlotte make her first public appearance.

Carried by her mother Kate, Charlotte, dressed in a pale pink dress with a pink bow clip in her hair, pointed as she spotted the crowds of well-wishers.

The tiny one-year-old princess made her first-ever appearance at the annual Trooping the Colour ceremony in London on Saturday, much to the delight of royal enthusiasts everywhere.

There, the Royal family watched the parades as the Queen inspected her soldiers.

Staged on Horse Guards Parade in Whitehall – Henry VIII’s former jousting yard – Trooping the Colour is one of the great state and social occasions and will feature nearly 1,500 soldiers and officers on parade and 300 horses.

Britain’s QueenElizabeth II (R) arrives at St. Paul’s Cathedral for the National Service of Thanksgiving to mark the Queen’s 90th birthday on June 10, 2016 in London, Britain.

The organisers have encouraged people join the celebrations up and down the country by hosting their own street parties.

Later, the royal couple will lead the family onto the palace balcony to wave to the throngs as Royal Air Force jets and some vintage World War II planes fly overhead.

Hundreds of tables lined the Mall, the grand avenue leading to the palace, for the Patron’s Lunch which saw representatives of the more than 600 charities and other organizations of which Elizabeth is patron enjoying food from wicker picnic hampers.

The Duchess of Cambridge has revealed the “feisty” side of her one-year-old daughter Princess Charlotte.

Britain’s Queen always has two birthdays, the official one on the second Saturday of June and her real birthday, which falls on April 21 as part of a tradition dating back almost 250 years to try to ensure good, sunny weather for the monarch’s official celebrations.

The palace also released a new picture by the American photographer Annie Leibovitz featuring a softly lit picture of the queen and the Duke of Edinburgh, who turned 95 on Friday.

There are now more than 600 bodies which have The Queen as their royal patron – and she has been patron of 433 of those since 1952, the year of her accession to the throne.
