According to Hello Magazine!, the photo of Camilla included in the bday tribute was taken during her recent appearance at Wimbledon, where she watched the tennis game with her sister, Annabel Elliot.

Prince William and Princess Catherine are not the only royals to send a public birthday message to the queen on her special day. This morning, Camilla’s husband, King Charles (74), also took to Twitter to say a few kind words to his wife on her birthday.

Paired with another pic of Camilla beaming, he wrote, “Wishing Her Majesty The Queen a very Happy Birthday today!” with a party horn emoji-filled with confetti. 

This is the first birthday Camilla will celebrate as queen. After she was crowned alongside her husband at the coronation ceremony, the royal family unveiled her official portrait.

In the photograph shared on Instagram, Camilla donned royal regalia from head to toe, which was created by famous British designer, Bruce Oldfield. The caption read: “An official portrait of Her Majesty The Queen following her Coronation on 6th May.”

Wishing you a very happy birthday, Camilla!
