The Queen has reportedly reunited with Prince William, Kate Middleton and their three children over the weekend.
The Monarch, 94, was forced to stay away from her family for months in lockdown.
Her grandson, Kate and her three great-grandchildren, George, Charlotte and Louis reportedly took the trip up to Scotland to see Her Majesty.
