The Queen is seen for first time since Harry and Meghan tied the knot

Queen Elizabeth II this morning left Windsor Castle for church without her husband Prince Philip, one day after her grandson Prince Harry married Meghan Markle.

The monarch, who regularly attends the Royal Chapel of All Saints in Windsor Great Park, was seen travelling in a Range Rover past the entrance of Windsor Farm shop.  

The Queen was later spotted being driven back to the castle soon after the morning service had finished, with her car sweeping into a side entrance onto the estate. 

She had attended the royal wedding with the 96-year-old Duke of Edinburgh yesterday, just six weeks after he had a planned hip replacement operation.

Philip's attendance for the royal nuptials had initially been in doubt following the operation on April 4, and he spent six weeks on a rehabilitation programme.


But royal enthusiasts were relieved at his appearance yesterday, and he waved enthusiastically to the crowd as he left St George's Chapel at Windsor Castle.

He had made his first public appearance since the operation last week at the Royal Windsor Horse show, and was later spotted driving himself around in a Land Rover.

n Windsor this morning, normality was returning with relatively few signs remaining of the festivities, pomp and pageantry that went into staging the royal wedding.

However there were innumerable Union Jacks still adorning the Berkshire town today, where an estimated 100,000 people turned out to see the couple. 

Newlyweds Harry and Meghan begin their first day as a married couple today after tying the knot during an emotional wedding ceremony that captivated the nation.

They sealed their union with a kiss, processed through Windsor in a carriage and had a moving wedding reception speech in their honour from Prince Charles.
