For the first time, all the major Royal Family members gathered together inside the palace for the ultimate royal night out.
Queen Elizabeth, Prince Charles, Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, Prince William, Kate Middleton, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle reunited at Buckingham Palace for a special reception in honour of the 50th anniversary of Charles being invested as Prince of Wales. And while the royal family members have been photographed together on the palace balcony during Trooping the Colour and during Christmas, this marks the first time all the royal couples appeared in the same shot together inside the palace.
Noticeably missing from the group shot was Prince Philip, who is retired from official royal duty and not on-hand for most royal events.
