Photograph: Joe Giddens/AFP/Getty ImagesPhotograph: Joe Giddens/AFP/Getty ImagesThe Queen has travelled to her Norfolk estate where she will celebrate her 96th birthday in low-key fashion at the farmhouse where the Duke of Edinburgh spent much of his retirement.

Buckingham Palace is not planning any kind of public engagement to mark her birthday on Thursday, though there will be tributes from family members and organisations she is involved with. Wood Farm, which is a modest residence by royal standards, has a more informal air than nearby Sandringham House. Philip, whoat the age of 99, loved the house, especially the fact that “the sea was so close”, the Queen has said.

Prince Harry says he visited the Queen to ensure she was ‘protected’Harry has raised hackles in the UK by telling American television show Today that he wanted to make sure his grandmother ‘had the right people around her’. I think the Queen is perfectly capable of ensuring she has the people she wants around her ...... what makes Harry think he knows what is best for his grandmother he hardly knows her & rarely sees her Who cares!! Stop giving them coverage when there are other things in the world to report!!! The nerve of that 🤡. HM is being protected by those still around her. The only person she needs protecting from is him and his narc wife!! 😠
