Queen Elizabeth paid a special tribute to her late husband Prince Philip on Saturday by using his personal walking cane during a celebration marking her reign’s 70th anniversary.

The 95-year-old monarch was spotted using Philip’s cane at her first public outing of the year as the family marked the eve of her Accession Day in Sandringham, Norfolk.

Royal biographer Gyles Brandreth was the first to notice the stick, telling Telegraph Monday, “I recognized the stick instantly, as it was always kept in a pot by the front door. It was the duke’s stick, and it is very touching that the Queen has started using it.”

Philip passed away at the age of 99 in April 21, and was last seen using the cane in 2013 after undergoing abdominal surgery.

As for the Queen, she started using a cane around October 2021.
