The King marked his first official birthday as sovereign at Trooping the Colour today, inspecting his troops as he rode on horseback.
Pomp and pageantry were on display during the military spectacle where the most prestigious regiments in the British Army honoured their Colonel in Chief in a parading.
The King was joined on horseback by the Prince of Wales, Colonel, Welsh Guards; the Princess Royal, Gold Stick in Waiting and Colonel of The Blues and Royals; and the Duke of Edinburgh. The Queen, Princess Kate, were also at the ceremony, along with Prince George, nine, Princess Charlotte, eight, and five-year-old Prince Louis.
Working members of the Royal Family travelled by carriage from Buckingham Palace to Horse Guards Parade in Whitehall for the parade.
The event featured around 1,500 soldiers in total and hundreds of Guardsmen were lined up on the parade ground waiting to be inspected by King.
For the first time since 1989, all five regiments of Foot Guards – the Welsh, Scots, Irish, Coldstream and Grenadier – were on parade together for Trooping.
The Royal Family later gathered on the Buckingham Palace balcony to wave to the gathered crowds and to watch a flypast.
