A snap of the moment they shook hands has been uploaded to the Royal Family Instagram page and fans are going wild for the very dated decor detail that they've spotted in the background.
One fan praised her majesty for being 'frugal', "It’s the simplicity for me with all the money in the world she has access to yet look at the little tiny TV she looks at ❤️" they commented.
Another fan added, "The Windsor castle tv stand deserves attention."
As a third fan agreed, and added, "Elizabeth!! That is the ugliest TV stand I have ever seen!!"
You can see the 'tiny' flat screen TV stood on the silver oval shaped TV stand in the photo below...
Others were delighted to see her Majesty up and about after she attended the Chelsea Flower Show on a buggy (opens in new tab) after fears over her mobility.
One fan praised how 'good' she looked following her health concerns. It read, "So lovely to see Queen Elizabeth feeling good!"
