Earl Spencer, 57, lives at his family seat, Althorp House, in the Northamptonshire countryside.

Charles has been custodian of the Althorp estate since the death of his father, John Spencer, in 1992, and he often posts updates about its stunning grounds and history to his social media accounts. 

This weekend, Prince George charmed fans when he was spotted singing along to Sweet Caroline during the Queen's Platinum Jubilee Pageant at Buckingham Palace.

George, who on Saturday made a surprise visit to Cardiff with his parents and sister, appeared in excellent spirits as he laughed and joked with his father in the Royal Box. 

Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall, Zara and Mike Tindall and Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice and their husbands were also in attendance. 

Prince Edward and Sophie Wessex, who on Saturday carried out engagements in Northern Ireland, also watched on from the stands, along with their children Lady Louise Windsor, 18, and James, Viscount Severn, 14. 

Princess Anne, who attended the Epsom Derby with her children and their respective partners over the weekend, took her seat next to her husband Vice Admiral Sir Timothy Laurence.

While she was forced to miss out amid ongoing health struggles, she still managed to steal the show by starring opposite a computer generated Paddington Bear in a hilarious sketch to open the concert. 

Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle did not attend the concert in person, and instead are believed to have watched the event in Windsor with the Queen. 

The Queen brought the house down when she was joined for a cream tea by Paddington.

For the 2012 Olympic opening ceremony, James Bond famously made an appearance with the Queen - and now it was the turn of everyone's favourite Peruvian bear - who was filmed alongside the monarch.

The Queen revealed she shares Paddington's love of marmalade sandwiches and keeps an emergency stash in her trademark handbag.

The film was shown as the star-studded party in the shadow of Buckingham Palace began, and the Queen and her furry guest had a novel way of introducing the first act - tapping out the beat of Queen's We Will Rock You on China teacups.

Prince George and Princess Charlotte, who earlier made a surprise visit to Cardiff Castle with their parents for a Jubilee event, sat in the front row of the royal box for the concert, alongside the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, Prince of Wales and Duchess of Cornwall.

Queen + Adam Lambert have delivered an electric opening to the BBC's Platinum Party at the Palace concert with a selection of classic hit songs.
