QUEEN Consort Camilla has made a very subtle nod to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle in a brand new photoshoot.
Camilla, 75, was photographed in the Morning Room at Clarence House surrounded by a number of Paddington Bear toys with one perched on her knee.

It showed the Queen Consort, the King, with the Prince and Princess of Wales, their three children and the Duke and Duchess of Sussex on the occasion of Prince Louis' christening in 2018.
