The Duke of Edinburgh has actually made a rare public appearance for a special event to hand over a military role to Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall.

The 99- year-old remained in high spirits and waved at professional photographers as he came to Windsor Castle to move his role as colonel-in-chief of The Rifles to his daughter-in-law.

Prince Philip is making the appearance almost 100 miles apart from Camilla as they both perform events to mark the event.

The duchess accepted the honour throughout the second half of the event at her Gloucestershire home of Highgrove.

Throughout the event at Windsor, Philip was thanked for his 67 years of assistance for The Rifles by Assistant Colonel Commandant, Major General Tom Copinger-Symes.

4 buglers from the Band and Bugles of The Rifles were standing to attention when the duke showed up on the actions of the Equerries’ Entryway.
