DID YOU KNOW? This week, The Queen let her troublesome son Prince Carl go to all the way to AUSTRALIA to pronounce her Royal Blessing on the 2018 British Olympic Games! While the event was mostly deemed a success, many commentators noted that Carl’s official Welcome Dance lacked something of Her Maj’s trademark showmanship and pizzazz, with some reports questioning whether his song choice of “I Just Can’t Wait To Be King” might have been a little bit On The Nose for such a prestigious event. 👑🕺🏼 #QUEENFACTS #BritishOlympics #BritOlympics18 #PrinceCarl #thelionking #welcomesong #succession #openingceremony #onthenose #queenelizabeth #queenelizabethii #royalfamily

DID YOU KNOW? You know that awkward moment when you walk out of the bathroom with a trail of toilet paper stuck to your foot? Well, this one time, The Queen did the same thing but with a red carpet! Of course, Her Maj carried the situation off with such Queenly Grace and Poise that red carpet trails are now the must-have accessory of the season! OMQ she is so fashion forward I just love her! 👑🚽 #QUEENFACTS #queenelizabeth #PrinceCarl #redcarpet #OMQ #fashion #fashionforward

DID YOU KNOW? After a week of tense negotiations, The Queen of England and the Queen Bee of England signed a historic trade agreement today that will ensure abundant and affordable honey supplies across the Commonwealth for years to come! Earlier in the week, the whole deal almost fell apart over a misunderstanding of the phrase, "I'll give you a buzz," but thankfully Her Maj's Chief Translator (also pictured) was able to smooth the situation over before things got out of hand. 👑🍯 #QUEENFACTS #QueenBeeFacts #queenelizabeth #featherbonnet #diplomacy #trade #honey #didyouknow

DID YOU KNOW? The Queen and her son Prince Carl love to organise special morning teas to celebrate different reasons they love each other! This week, Prince Carl baked Her Maj this beautiful cake to reminder that she always has the prince's trust. 👑♥️ #QUEENFACTS #morningtea #baking #cakeboss #queenelizabeth #princecarl #didyouknow

HAPPY BIRTHBAE YOUR MAJ!! 👑🎂🎉 DID YOU KNOW? Every year, King Elizabeth bakes his wife Queen Elizabeth a birthday cake in any shape she wants!! This year, to throw him a curveball, she asked for a cake shaped like Buckingham Greenhouse (where the Buckingham Guardners grow the oranges to make Royal Marmalade.) His Maj stayed up all night last night shaping the fondant, but as you can see it was totes worth it! 👑🍊 #QUEENFACTS #birthbae #queensbirthday #BuckinghamGreenhouse #BuckinghamGuardners #fondant #birthdaylove #queenelizabethii #royalfamily #didyouknow #totes #👜👜

DID YOU KNOW? Her Maj and the #QueenSquad were up early today to cast their votes in the Great British Election to decide who will take on the purely ceremonial role of "Prime Minister". But even with their Royal Power Votes counting as one hundred and fifty votes each, the outcome is still far from certain! Thankfully, whether the common folk choose British Captain Planet or British Donald Trump to rule them, the REAL power lies, as ever, with Her Maj. 👑🇬🇧 #QUEENFACTS #BritishElection #RoyalPowerVotes #election #BritishCaptainPlanet #BritishDonaldTrump #queenelizabethii #royalfamily #didyouknow #ukelection2017

DID YOU KNOW? There's nothing The Queen loves more than a spot of #antiquing, and the annual Buckingham Swap Meet is a highlight of her social calendar! Meanwhile, while he's waiting for Her Maj to finish her shopping, The Queen's husband King Elizabeth loves to stand very still in a corner and pretend to be an antique waxwork of himself. Then, when a fellow antiquer asks, "How much for that stunning likeness of His Majesty? I simply MUST have it!" King Elizabeth SPRINGS to life and says, "Sorry love, this one's not for sale," and then everyone laughs and laughs. OMQ they are both so #QueenGoals I can't even take it right now!! 👑🗽#QUEENFACTS #antiquing #waxworks #KingElizabeth #didyouknow

DID YOU KNOW? Every year, The Queen and The Pope get together for a Ceremonial Arm Wrestle. The winner has the honour of hosting the next year's tournament at their home castle, and the loser has to dress in white for the WHOLE NEXT YEAR!! Needless to say, Her Maj hasn't set foot in Vatican City for QUITE SOME TIME. 👑💪🏻 #QUEENFACTS #POPEFACTS #royalrumble #armwrestle #queenelizabethii #BuckinghamPalace #didyouknow

DID YOU KNOW? Earlier today, Queen Elizabeth's long-time husband King Elizabeth announced his "retirement" from Royal Duties. Obviously, this announcement is "completely real" and "most certainly not a convenient excuse" to free up time in His Maj's top secret covert ops schedule. 👑😉 #QUEENFACTS #completelyreal #wink #KingElizabeth #BuckinghamPalace #covertops #didyouknow

DID YOU KNOW? This one time, some genius publicity guy at Buckingham Palace decided that to help The Queen "get more in touch with the youth of today" (as if she NEEDED the help!!) she should star in her own Royal Season of the hit TV show, The Bachelorette. Somehow, they even convinced Her Maj to film a pilot, but of course the whole thing fell apart when she refused to give her roses to anyone but her long-time husband, King Elizabeth. I think that publicist is working for Sophie Monk now. 👑🌹 #QUEENFACTS #TheBachelorette #BuckinghamPalace #roseceremony #truelove #spousalfidelity #publicity #thequeen #thecrown #sophiemonk #didyouknow

DID YOU KNOW? This one time, The Queen paid a royal visit to the Zoo Of England to take part in their famous ELEPHANT CHALLENGE! Her Maj bested her arch rival Tendertrunk in both the Memory Test and the Banana Eating Contest, but missed out on a potential clean sweep when Tendertrunk narrowly outmanoeuvred her in the Thumb War (pictured.) 👑🍌 #QUEENFACTS #didyouknow #elephantchallenge #thumbwar #bananaeatingcontest #ZooOfEngland #thequeen #elephant #manvsbeast #queenelizabethii

DID YOU KNOW? When Queen Elizabeth and her long-time husband King Elizabeth announced their secret plan to combine his love of house music with her love of funk, disco and synthpop, their friends said they were crazy, but WHO'S LAUGHING NOW, CAMILLA?? 👑🎧 #QUEENFACTS #DaftPunk #secretidentities #synthpop #QueenElizabeth #KingElizabeth #didyouknow

DID YOU KNOW? The Queen is such a beast at Temple Run 2 that the designers decided to surprise her with a secret in-game bonus in her royal honour!! On the Queen's Birthday, if you get over 10,000,000 points without saving, the Temple Run guy MAGICALLY TRANSFORMS into Her Maj herself! Try it sometime! 👑🏃🏻‍♀️ #QUEENFACTS #TempleRun #QueenMode #QueensBirthday #didyouknow

FASHION FRIDAY: When the whole squad lookin' fresh!! Here's Her Maj and the #QueenSquad strutting their stuff on the set of the new gender-balanced Ocean's Eleven remake. (Not that hard, is it, Jerkson?) Even Camilla is looking pretty fine, after a little fashion coaching from Her Maj – although tbh, she still has a bit to learn about subtlety. (Yep, good one, purple is the colour of royalty. WE GET IT, CAMILLA!!) 👑👗 #QUEENFACTS #OceansEleven #subtlety #highfashion #queengoals #hrh #didyouknow

DID YOU KNOW? On the day The Queen was UNFAIRLY BOOTED from her role as Aragorn in Lord of the Rings, she decided to play a little prank on Peter JERKson. Having already formed a lifelong connection with the horses on set during pre-production, she had a quiet word with them on her way out and convinced them all to do the exact OPPOSITE of whatever Jerkson directed. OMQ you should have seen the chaos on set the next day!! I swear, half of those so-called "battle scenes" in the movie weren't even on purpose. 👑🐴 #QUEENFACTS #PeterJERKson #LordoftheRings #LotR #hollywoodgossip #movies #pranks #horsewhisperer #didyouknow

FASHION FRIDAY! Today we find Her Maj in a brave new outfit she calls Duck à l’Orange. A pale orange Queen Jacket and jaunty matching Queen Hat are offset by a jewel-encrusted duck brooch and an ACTUAL LIVE DUCK, carried under her arm in place of a more traditional clutch. The only downside is that the Buckingham Palace guards are always coming up and asking for a pat of the duck! I mean OMQ how could you be around Her Maj for so long and still not get the difference between High Fashion and a PETTING ZOO?? Then again, those guys do wear the exact same clothes every single day, so I guess I shouldn't be surprised... 👑🦆 #QUEENFACTS #FashionFriday #duckalorange #pettingzoo #buckinghampalace #duckclutch #highfashion #didyouknow
