The four-generations portrait of Her Majesty, Prince Charles, Prince William and gorgeous little George was only a little teaser… because Kensington Palace has just released three new pics!
The photographs, taken by the renowned Annie Leibovitz, show Queen Elizabeth with the whole monarch – including her cherished corgis!
Admitting that he has “never been happier in a relationship”, George Clooney opens up on his wife Amal, and how the human rights lawyer makes him “feel like an idiot."
Although George Clooney is widely known to be one of Hollywood’s biggest and most successful names, the star admits that next to his wife Amal Clooney, he feels like an “idiot.”
“Oftentimes, I feel like an idiot talking to my own wife,” he said of his other half in a recent interview with Esquire magazine.
The 54-year-old who married Amal in 2014, is the first to admit that he’s never been more in love.
“I’ve never been happier in a relationship by any stretch of the imagination,” the Gravity actor gushed. “At 52. I found the love of my life and I’m really happy.”

As the couple approach their second wedding anniversary, there’s much less talk about the idea of a mini-George or Amal, but rather a different kind of mark on the world.
While George has left behind “seven or eight films that will stand the test of time”, he is currently working on a legacy of a different nature – a positive change for the future of refugees and immigrants.

Explaining a sentiment his father had taught him, the actor said, “If your legacy’s gonna count for anything, it actually has to count for the next generation’s lives.”
“Amal and I are working on things now that matter to us on a whole other level, in a whole other world. If there’s a legacy for me, it’s yet to be written,” he said of the humanitarian work he and his wife participate in.
Amal quickly became a style icon in Hollywood.
And while the silver fox has a very demanding schedule indeed what with all the star studded productions, he still manages to find time to shoot hoops with the president. Yes, Obama.
“We played here in L.A.,” quipped George of his basketball game with President Barack Obama.
“I did a fundraiser here with him, and he said, ‘What are you doing tomorrow morning?’ I go, ‘What time?’ He goes, ‘5:30. You wanna play some hoops?’”
“It was really fun. He’s a good basketball player,” he said.

In celebration of the Queen’s 90th birthday, Buckingham Palace have released three stunning portraits of Her Majesty, taken by famed photographer Annie Leibovitz.
The beautiful images were taken at Windsor Castle in late March and have been released on the day of her 90th birthday, Thursday April 21.
The first portrait shows Her Majesty with her five great-grandchildren and her two youngest grandchildren, sitting in the Green Drawing Room of Windsor Castle.
But the best part? The fact Queen Elizabeth is holding Princess Charlotte on her lap as the 11-month-old plays happily with a toy horse while her sparkling blue eyes steal the show.
The other family members from left to right include the two-year-old daughter of Zara and Mike Tindall, Mia, who is proudly holding The Queen’s handbag.

Eight-year-old James, Viscount Severn and his sister, Lady Louise, 12, whose parents are The Earl and Countess of Wessex. The Queen’s other granddaughter’s Savannah, five, and Isla Phillips three, who are daughters of The Queen’s oldest grandson Peter Phillips and his wife Autumn.
And of course, two-year-old Prince George and his famous chubby cheeks and knee-high socks are back with a vengeance!
The second portrait to commemorate her 90th is of The Queen and her only daughter Anne, The Princess Royal.
Princess Anne, 55, can be seen placing her arm lovingly around her mother as they recline on a plush couch in the White Drawing Room at Windsor Castle.

As the only daughter of The Queen, Anne and her mother share an incredibly close bond. On the left, they pose ahead of a ball in Vienna in 1969. On the right, the family are pictured at Peter Phillips’ christening in 1977.
Clearly thrilled to be in her daughter’s company The Queen, who looks particularly smart in a peach-coloured cardigan and tartan skirt, beams at the camera.
Interestingly, The Queen’s three other children Prince Charles, Prince Edward and Prince Andrew weren’t included in the photo. Meanwhile, her husband Prince Philip also was absent from the photographs.
The final portrait shows the longest-ruling Monarch doing what she loves best – spending time outdoors with her beloved dogs.
Looking happy and at ease as the ominous clouds roll over, it shows a much more relaxed side to the mother-of-four, who is pictured on the steps at the rear of the East Terrace and East Garden of Windsor Castle.

The Monarch has long loved dogs and over the course of her life, has had countless treasured pets. Here Queen Elizabeth (L) and her sister, Princess Margaret, pose with a pup back in 1942.
These latest images come just one day after the Royal Mail unveiled four limited-edition stamps of The Queen and the future Kings of England – Prince Charles, Prince William and Prince George.
In the lead up to The Queen’s birthday, a documentary called Our Queen at Ninety was also released. The in-depth show touched on her deep love for George and Charlotte.
Duchess Catherine, 34, revealed that the monarch always leaves out gifts for her children whenever they visit Buckingham Palace, adding that George calls his great-grandmother “Gan-Gan.”
“She always leaves a little gift or something in their room when we go and stay and that just shows her love for her family,” Catherine fondly remarked.
The couple, who welcomed their son on Tuesday 19 April, have left the hospital with their newborn baby boy.
Carl Philip, Sofia and little bub have returned home to Drottningholm Palace, but not before sharing a snap of their now-family-of-three.
“We’re all feeling good and looking forward to time together,” they captioned the sweet snap.
The Swedish royal palace shared the photo of the new parents and their little Prince, revealing that the trio are “doing well” and that mum and dad are “looking forward” to bonding with their child.
Sofia and her husband are yet to announce their son’s name, who appeared to be content sleeping in his car seat.
The little tyke was born at 6:25pm at the Danderyd hospital in Stockholm and weighed about 3.5kg.
In a press conference following the birth of his son, Carl Philip proudly revealed how big his boy is and noted he was in the delivery room when his wife gave birth.
Just hours after he became a dad, the Prince spoke to reporters in a press conference at the Stockholm-based hospital.
When asked if he had cried during the birth, he quipped, “Yes, actually. Of course. Couldn’t stop.”
“For me and my wife, this is obviously a great day with a lot of emotion,” he said.
“Words cannot describe.”
No doubt the new arrival will fit in nicely with Princess Victoria’s kid, Princess Estelle and Prince Oscar

After two weeks in custody in Lebanon, Tara Brown along with the 60 Minutes crew and the Brisbane mum are finally free to return to Australia, writes Chloe Lal.
After two weeks in custody in Lebanon, Tara Brown along with the 60 Minutes crew and the Brisbane mum are finally free to return to Australia.
The reporter along with her crew, Ben Williamson, David Ballment and Stephen Rice walked free around 4pm local time, with “smiles as wide as the Harbour Bridge” according to Nine News reporter Tom Steinfort.
Tara was in great spirits as she revealed the first thing she did after being freed was call her husband, John McAvoy.
“Had a chance to call John – I was ordered to call home straight away,” the veteran reporter told 9NEWS with a laugh.
“But not the kids yet, I can’t wait to speak to them obviously, although they have no idea about any of this.”
“It’s great to talk to home and it’s great to be going home.”

The sentiment resonated with Sally, who said she was “just so glad to be out of there”.
Adding, “I mean they treated us well, I can’t complain about that, it’s just the uncertainty that sort of kept me awake at night, not knowing if it was going to be a life-long sentence.”
The detained Aussies left the prison for Beirut Airport last night at about 11pm AEST.
Tara, along with 60 Minutes cameraman Ben Williamson, sound recordist David Ballment and producer Stephen Rice, were facing charges of kidnapping, physical assault, hiding information and criminal conspiracy.
“I release all the Australian crew on bail because Ali Elamein has dropped the charges,” the Judge said.
Adding, “That is the personal charges that have been dropped. But criminal charges remain. They will have to return for them.”
As for Sally’s estranged partner Ali Elamine, who dropped the charges, he has no resentment towards the Channel Nine team, telling the media they were “just doing their job”.
It’s been reported Channel 9 paid an unspecified amount of reconciliation money to the Lebanese father. It’s understood the custody hearing will continue for children Lahela, five, and three-year-old Noah.
“I am glad it’s over,” he said outside Baabda Central Women’s Prison.
“She is their mother and I don’t want them growing up and thinking ‘Daddy had the option of letting Mummy off easily and he didn’t.”
The singer has taken to Instagram to share the first full photo of his daughter… And she is beautiful!
Luna Simone is simply beautiful.
Just yesterday Chrissy took to Instagram to share the first look at little Lulu with the world.
“Hi my Lulu!” the proud mum captioned the pic of her cradling her bundle of joy.
And it seems that motherhood suits the Cravings cookbook author, who beamed down at the bub with a smile of content as she sat on her deck looking fresh faced and relaxed.
Baby Luna is already a legend in Chrissy’s eyes.
The parents, who announced they had welcomed their daughter earlier this week,decided to reveal their her arrival a few days after her actual birthday on April 14th.
“She’s here! Luna Simone Stephens, we are so in love with you! And sleepy. Very sleepy,” Chrissy penned in her trademark hilarious style to her Instagram followers.
While John added via Twitter: “Our new love is here! Luna Simone Stephens, born on Thursday, the 14th. We couldn’t be happier!”
We can’t wait to see more snaps of the adorable bubba!
