There is a new addition to the annual Buckingham Palace balcony photo.

Yes, today Meghan Markle joined her husband, Prince Harry for her first ever Trooping The Colours and traditional Buckingham Palace balcony picture to mark Queen Elizabeth’s 92nd birthday.

The entire royal family gathered together on the balcony to watch the iconic fly-past by the Royal Air Force. In attendance included Queen Elizabeth, Prince Philip, The Prince of Wales, The Duchess of Cornwall, The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge as well as the newlyweds, The Duke and Duchess of Sussex.

Next week, Meghan Markle will be going it solo without Prince Harry for a royal appearance alongside Queen Elizabeth. The pair will be travelling aboard the Royal Train which travels through the night, is very expensive to run and is often used for long-distance journeys.

They’re due to travel to Cheshire for the royal day out but it’s how they’re getting there that’s really piquing public interest as it will Meghan’s first time taking the train which is ahead of Prince Harry, Prince William and Kate Middleton who have never taken the royal train on a public outing.
