enjoyed a night out at the theatre with some of her nearest and dearest last night, as she was pictured arriving at the Fortune Theatre to watch Operation Mincemeat.
The Queen, 77, didn’t commandeer the State Bentley for the private family gathering, however, instead opting for a Ford Transit minibus.
The large vehicle parked outside the entrance to the theatre, in the heart of London’s West End, and the family hopped out. After the show, the Queen took the minibus back home to Clarence House – much to the surprise of onlookers who had expected Her Majesty to take a royal escort home.
Her Majesty was joined by her daughter Laura Lopes, son-in-law Harry Lopes, grandchildren Louis, Gus, and Eliza Lopes, granddaughter Lola Parker Bowles, and her niece Alice Irwin.
The Queen’s security was also pictured carrying her private cushion as they ensured her comfort throughout the evening, which came after she was ill with pneumonia.

Luckily, we’re about to gamble all our futures on a stolen corpse.“Singin’ in the Rain meets Strangers on a Train, Noel Coward meets Noel Fielding, Operation Mincemeatis the fast-paced, hilarious and unbelievable true story of the twisted secret mission that won us World War II. The question is, how did a well-dressed corpse wrong-foot Hitler?”
The Queen’s last public engagement was on Thursday December 12, when she continued her cherished annual tradition of inviting children to decorate her Christmas Tree at Clarence House.
She welcomed families children with life-limiting conditions and their families to her London home to meet Father Christmas for the very special festive event.
