The Queen has called her Diamond Jubilee “a humbling experience”, saying she had been “touched deeply” by seeing so many people celebrating together.
In a message to the nation, she thanked all those who organised the events.
Festivities culminated in an appearance by the senior royals on the Buckingham Palace balcony in front of huge crowds to watch an RAF flypast.
But the Queen’s consort, Prince Philip, was absent from her side as he remains in hospital with a bladder infection.
The Earl and Countess of Wessex visited the Duke of Edinburgh on Tuesday afternoon. Â
Afterwards, Prince Edward said: “He’s feeling better.” The countess added: “He’s in good spirits; he’s on good form.” (BBC)
