QUEEN'S FAMILY JOY: ARCHIE & LILIBET VISIT THE PALACE

As the palace planned out every second of the Queen’s jubilee, for her, there was only one thing that mattered – having every member of her family by her side.

And while it was touch-and-go as to whether Prince Harry and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex would attend due to a dispute over their royal security, the 96-year-old was “truly thrilled” that the pair were a last-minute inclusion for the weekend festivities.

New Idea understands the monarch rearranged her packed schedule to spend quality time with her American great-grandkids, Archie, 3, and her sweet little namesake Lilibet – who also celebrated a special milestone on Saturday, her 1st birthday.

“As soon as the Queen found out Harry and Meghan were coming, she told her staff she intended to make a big fuss for the kids, especially as it’s Lili’s birthday,” says a source.

Eager to get off on the right foot with the Sussexes, the Queen sent her personal fleet of bulletproof vehicles to meet the family at their private jet, which ferried them from Farnborough Airport to Frogmore Cottage last Wednesday afternoon.

“The Queen believed it was the right thing to do,” says a source, who was speaking to UK newspaper The Sun.
