Dressed head to toe in a vibrant tangerine outfit complete with pearls and dark gloves, the 92-year-old monarch appeared to be in good spirits as she published an image on Instagram using an iPad.
LONDON — Britain’s Queen Elizabeth II published her first Instagram post Thursday during a visit to London’s Science Museum.
Dressed head to toe in a vibrant tangerine outfit complete with pearls and dark gloves, the 92-year-old monarch appeared to be in good spirits as she published the image using an iPad.
The surrounding crowd applauded as the image was shared to the Royal Instagram account that has more than 4.5 million followers. The account was launched in 2013 and is regularly updated by staff, who post news and updates about the work of the queen and other members of the royal family. Today marks the first time the queen has updated the account herself.
The queen, who was on a visit to open the new Smith Centre at the museum and announce a major summer exhibition, published her first post to the Royal Family’s Instagram account, writing:
«Today, as I visit the Science Museum I was interested to discover a letter from the Royal Archives, written in 1843 to my great-great-grandfather Prince Albert.
