Queen Elizabeth II's 100th birthday

The late monarch's 100th birthday is being celebrated across the United Kingdom with the announcement of a permanent memorial space in London's St James's Park.

The final design for the statue depicts the Queen as a young woman in her Garter robes, with a representation of Prince Philip standing slightly behind her.

King Charles expressed that his mother would have been 'deeply troubled' by current world events but remained a constant source of inspiration.

The celebrations include exhibitions of her iconic wardrobe and a new charitable foundation dedicated to her legacy.
