The 93-year-old was snapped sporting a pink ensemble, matching headscarf and carrying her signature handbag.

The photographs come hours after Buckingham Palace confirmed her husband Philip had been hospitalised.

"The admission is a precautionary measure, on the advice of His Royal Highness' Doctor."
