It’s Her Majesty The Queen’s birthday today! 👑🎈 Did you know: It is a royal tradition to have two birthdays? The tradition began with King George II, who was born in November. He wanted to celebrate his birthday during the warmer and brighter months so that outdoor celebrations would be more enjoyable. With this in mind, he chose to combine his second birthday with the annual military parade in June. To this day, the Queen's second birthday, or ‘official birthday’, is celebrated on the same day as the parade- the second Saturday in June. Let’s all wish Her Majesty The Queen a very happy birthday in the comments! 👇
