The Queen moved to tears in emotional Jubilee moment
In an emotional display, Queen Elizabeth has been moved to tears at a Platinum Jubilee celebration.
In the finale at Her Majesty's Official Platinum Jubilee Celebration A Gallop Through History, the Queen's granddaughter Lady Louise drove Prince Philip's carriage through the performance.
The Queen, along with her companion for the night Sophie, the Countess of Wessex, were both seen wiping away tears at the heartwarming family display.
Lady Louise shared her grandfather's love of carriage driving and following his death in 2021, he left her his carriage and two horses.
Carriage driving was one of Prince Philip's favourite past-times, with the late royal often racing carriages near Norfolk and represented Britain at several world and European championships.
At the age of 91 he had a carriage made to his specifications, using dark green materials, aluminium and steel. This is the beloved carriage he left to Lady Louise and that she drove during the celebration.
Since her grandfather's death, Lady Louise has been seen driving the carriage in Windsor and participating in events including the British Indoor Carriage Driving Championships in April.
The Commonwealth and the four nations of the United Kingdom were be celebrated, while there were military and equestrian displays from around the world including Azerbaijan, India, Oman, France, Norway, Switzerland, and Trinidad and Tobago.
Over 500 horses and 1,000 performers took part in the event which will be broadcast on ITV in the UK and the Seven Network on May 20th in Australia.
