Buckingham Palace released Queen Camilla’s official birthday portrait with a meaningful message.
On July 17, King Charles’ team celebrated the Queen’s 79th birthday on social media.
“Happy Birthday to the Queen!” the caption stands next to Camilla’s beaming photo.
But the special part of the birthday wish was a message related to the Queen’s passion for reading.
According to her team, “The Queen marked her birthday with a renewed commitment to supporting children’s literacy, with the announcement that every Year 6 and P6 child across the UK will be presented with a special edition of the bestselling book ‘Impossible Creatures’ by award-winning author Katherine Rundell this Christmas.
“Led by the National Literacy Trust, of which the Queen is Patron, the program celebrates the National Year of Reading 2026.”
Fans in the comments section showered love on the queen and praised her thoughtful move, which will promote reading among young people.
“I wish you a very happy birthday, Your Majesty! How typical of the Queen to think of others, even on her own birthday!” wrote a fan.
Another said: “What a wonderful gift on Her Majesty’s behalf.”
