Queen Elizabeth simply loves her summer break in Scotland.

She made her way to Balmoral last week and it is expected she’ll stay until September.

This year, Prince Philip opted to skip their traditional summer as he recuperates from a hip operation earlier this year.

Her Majesty’s break often sees her receive many close visitors, including the new Duke and Duchess of Sussex.

The Queen is believed to have extended Duchess Meghan and her husband Prince Harry an official invite to their holiday home.

“An invitation to Balmoral, where the Queen is expected to remain until September, is traditionally part of the initiation into the Royal family,” Royal expert Richard Fitzwilliams shared.

Duchess Kate and Prince William will no doubt make their way there soon, bringing along their three children Prince George, Princess Charlotte and little Prince Louis.
