King Charles III has ensured his wife's 76th birthday will be marked with an extra special landmark event
London will hear a very special gun salute on the day to mark her birthday, and it is the first time Her Majesty has been afforded this honour, which is reserved for the King and Queen on their birthdays.
In a press release from the British Army, it was announced: "The King’s Troop Royal Horse Artillery will fire a 41 Gun Royal Salute from 1200hrs" and "The Honourable Artillery Company will fire a 62 Gun Royal Salute from Tower Wharf, 17 July 2023, from 1300hrs."Dog walkers have even been advised to avoid the area because the loud noise could startle pooches.
Prince William and Princess Kate said: "Happy birthday to Her Majesty the Queen," alongside a photograph of Camilla smiling away at Wimbledon – a shot that was taken earlier this week during her visit.
The beautiful image was captured by royal photographer Chris Jackson. Wearing an elegant summer dress complete with a feminine V-neck collar adorned with blue and pink flowers, the then-Duchess Camilla was pictured in the gardens of her Wiltshire home.Speaking about the opportunity, Chris said: "Really special to photograph the Duchess of Cornwall at her home in Wiltshire for her 75th Birthday.
