Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip are celebrating 66 years of marriage.
The Queen first met Philip as a girl of only 13 at the wedding of his cousin. In November 1947 the couple were wed at Westminster Abbey and their marriage is still going strong today.
Now 87 and 92 years old, the royal couple have been through a lot together, from the 26-year-old Princess becoming Queen in 1953 to welcoming their great-grandson Prince George earlier this year.
We take a look back at the happy couple through the years.
