Another fan wrote: “The Queen aka Camilla looks great and the Princess of Wales aka Kate looks fantastic as usual. Any occasions - joyful or solemn - Kate looks superb.”

The Queen wore an all-black ensemble, re-wearing a wool and satin dress designed by one of her designers, Fiona Clare.

On Sunday 12 November, the nation fell silent to honour those who died in war as the King led a moving Remembrance Day service.

Wreaths were also laid by members of the royal family, senior politicians and dignitaries at the Cenotaph in London.

During the service, King Charles led the country at the Whitehall memorial in commemorating the end of the First World War and other conflicts involving British and Commonwealth forces.
