Queen Camilla pictured in new photo released to mark 78th birthday
The image shows the Queen looking relaxed and wearing a turquoise dress in a Liberty fabric printed with a rainforest of toucans, lemurs and monkeys.
Last year, Camilla was on duty on her birthday attending the State Opening of Parliament at the King's side.
This year, she is said to be spending the day privately.
The King, who is still being treated for cancer, is known to have been buoyed by his wife's support since his diagnosis last year.
The pair celebrated their 20th wedding anniversary at the start of April and have had a busy run of engagements, including hosting a state visit by the French president last week, ahead of their upcoming annual summer break to Scotland.
In the birthday portrait taken by photographer Chris Jackson earlier this month, Camilla can be seen wearing gold drop earrings, a delicate gold bracelet, a gold ring composed of circular plaques on her pinky finger, her wedding band and her five carat emerald cut diamond engagement ring as she places her hands together while resting on the gate.
On Wednesday, the Queen was gifted a roll of clingfilm for her birthday in a special holder when she visited a nuclear-powered submarine in Plymouth.
The wrapping was used to fix a defect in the main engines of HMS Astute.
'There's nothing more useful, brilliant, how wonderful,' the Queen remarked about the present which had a small plaque with the words 'Clingflim keeping nuclear submarines at sea'.
Camilla is also to be made a Vice Admiral – a honorary role – in recognition of her support of the Royal Navy, it was announced the same day.

Absolutely Everything We Know About Calvin Harris' Wife Vick Hope
Vick Hop and Calvin Harris have announced the birth of their first child, a baby boy called Micah. Harris took to Instagram to praise his 'superhero' wife, Vick Hope, with a series of photos showing his followers the moments after the birth. 'My wife is a superhero and I am in complete awe of her primal wisdom! Just so grateful. We love you so much Micah,' he wrote. Here's everything you need know about BBC Radio 1 host Vick Hope. Vick Hope is a TV and radio presenter, and author. She was born and raised in Newcastle upon Tyne, before moving to Cambridge for university, where she studied French, Spanish and Portuguese. In an interview with A-List, Hope explained she took night classes to help her get into Cambridge. 'I was so determined,' she told the outlet. 'I'd read about Cambridge University and my teachers said it was a risk and told me to go to another uni but I'm very hard working and my school didn't do the subjects I needed and wanted to do, so I taught myself Spanish at adult education classes to do my A-level exam and same with further maths, which I taught myself in a year.' She continued: 'I wanted to stand out from the other kids who had gone to Eton. I was strong willed and my parents instilled this notion of hard graft.' Vick currently hosts three shows a week for Radio 1 - Going Home with Vick and Jordan, Life Hacks and Official Chart: First Look. In recent years, Vick has also become a regular face on our TV screens. She has hosted kids shows including CITV's HOW , and worked as a roving reporter for This Morning. She also led Channel 4's coverage of the Paralympic Games in Tokyo last year. Vick Hope was born on 25 September 1989, making her 35 years old. Vick and Harris' relationship actually goes as far back as 2007. In an interview with You Magazine, Vick revealed she rejected him when he asked her on a date. 'It's something that we laughed about on our first proper date,' she told the outlet. 'We still laugh about it now.' It wasn't until 2022 that rumours of a romance began circling between the pair, after they were seen together at Chelsea Flower Show - marking their first public appearance. This appearance also sparked engagement rumours, with Hope telling Hello Magazine 'You know what, I was very overwhelmed by the interest in it, but I'm keeping my private life private. I've never really experienced this before about my private life, but it's just for us.' It wasn't until 2023 that the pair went Instagram official on a trip to Ibiza, before getting married in September that year.

Molly-Mae's 'incredibly chic' sunglasses are surprisingly affordable and still in stock
Molly-Mae fans have been calling her recent holiday looks 'perfection', and we've found exactly where to shop her 'incredibly chic' sunglasses Molly-Mae has cemented herself as a style icon in recent years thanks to her stint as Creative Director at Pretty Little Thing and, more recently, with the launch of her own clothing brand, Maebe. And it's no surprise that when Molly posts a certain item to her Instagram, it usually sells out, aptly named the ' Molly-Mae effect'. So we were shocked to find that Molly's chic sunglasses from her most recent Instagram post are still in stock, and even better they're reasonably affordable. The sunglasses, named the Outta Love sunglasses, hail from the cool-girl French eyewear brand Le Specs. Priced at £55, they are pretty wallet-friendly compared to Molly's previously worn £300 to £400 YSL and Gucci specs. Designed with a sleek, minimal '90s look, these sunglasses feature a slimline oval silhouette, with signature Le Specs gold hardware on the legs, and smoke mono black lenses. The Outta Love shape has been specifically designed for narrower face shapes thanks to their smaller, petite fit. Molly isn't the only fan of these specs, with major celebs like Dua Lipa, Bella Hadid and Olivia Rodrigo having worn them before. With over 800 glowing reviews, shoppers also can't get enough of these retro sunnies. One shopper raved: "These sunglasses are not only incredibly chic, but the polarized lenses really help my eyes feel protected and safe! I lost my first pair while hiking and loved them so much I re-ordered a second pair as soon as I had cell signal again!" A second added: "Absolutely love these glasses. They make any outfit look effortlessly cool and elevated." One shopper wasn't as impressed, writing: "Too petite for my face". If you're not a fan of this particular shape, we've found a lookalike pair of Molly-Mae's sold-out YSL sunglasses. The pair in question are the Oversized Square Retro Style Sunglasses from & Other Stories. Priced at £27, this similar-looking pair is more than £300 more affordable than Molly's one. Another favourite sunglass brand of Molly-Mae's is Vehla, who also have a similar alternative to the sold-out Saint Laurent pair. The Dixie Sunglasses are on the pricier side at £170, but are a go-to brand for so many celebrities thanks to their quality, fit and unique styles.
