The Duchess of Cambridge has been portrayed as a workshy gold-digger in a bizarre video promoting Chinese tourism.

Royal protocol prevents Prince William and Catherine kissing in public but the same rules don’t apply to the couple’s puppy Lupo.

Queen Elizabeth II has spent 60 years putting duty above all else and last night was no exception, with the monarch cheerfully attending a pop concert to celebrate her Diamond Jubilee despite Prince Philip being taken to hospital just hours earlier.
