'Queen Returns to Royal Duties Days After Duke of Edinburgh's Death'

The Queen has returned to royal duties, just a few days after the death of the Duke of Edinburgh.

The monarch hosted a ceremony to mark the retirement of her household’s most senior official, the Earl Peel.

The Lord Chamberlain oversees all senior appointments in the household.

The engagement was recorded in the Court Circular – a daily list of the events attended by the Royal Family.

The royals are observing two weeks of royal mourning, with members of the family continuing “appropriate” engagements.

Returning to her official role so soon after her bereavement typifies the Queen’s deep sense of duty.
