The show was a favorite pastime for both the queen and her late husband Prince Phillip. For many years they both attended the Royal Windsor Horse Show together and crowds were eager to spot the pair. She and Philip were married for 73 years; Prince Philip died last April at the age of 99.

Her Majesty missed the Queen’s Speech on Tuesday on doctor’s orders. She has begun to have difficulty walking or standing for long periods. For a few minutes she chose to stay in the passenger seat of her vehicle while she happily spoke to passers-by and watched horses in the parade ring.

She remained seated for an hour or so then used a cane to slowly walk about 30ft to her seat in the grandstand. She sat between son Prince Edward and Penny Knatchbull, Countess Mountbatten of Burma.
