The Queen won’t let any distractions get in the way of her royal duties. The 93-year-old was all smiles during an outing to celebrate the Royal Philatelic Society’s 150th anniversary.
There, the Queen was treated to a special piece of history—stamps featuring her own face over her years as queen! She also viewed display frames from five previous monarchs before meeting with volunteers and young philatelists.
Her Majesty has long been an avid stamp collector, and is reported to own a collection worth millions of dollars. No wonder she couldn’t contain her smile during the tour!
The Queen looked spectacular for the occasion as she donned a blue coat and dress paired with a fancy hat. Of course, Her Majesty also wore her signature gloves and bag.
Before leaving, Queen Elizabeth helped the society open their new building.
It seems that the Queen was able to put her familial troubles aside for the outing. Just last week, Prince Andrew announced that he had asked the Queen for her permission to step back to royal duties, to which she gave her blessing. Prince Andrew has come under serious fire following a bombshell interview about his relationship with late disgraced billionaire and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Nonetheless the Queen seems to support her son, and was seen horseback riding with him as recently as last Friday.
