The Queen Has Finally Joined Instagram - And This Was Her First Post

There is no age restriction to join Instagram and Queen Elizabeth II has made her first post at the grand old age of 92!

The snapshot was posted on the Royal Family's official profile since Queen Elizabeth II does not have a personal Instagram account yet.

'Today, while visiting the Science Museum, I was intrigued to discover a letter from the Royal Archives, written in 1843 by my great-grandfather Prince Albert,' Queen Elizabeth II wrote in a caption, signed with her name.

Her first Instagram post was followed by a video of Queen Elizabeth II wearing an orange coat, posting her photo on the social network! Perhaps it will be the first post of many...
