In an Instagram post, the British Royal Family added, “With exactly a week to go until The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations begin in earnest with the spectacular Trooping the Colour, we’re launching some social media tools to help you share your Jubilee celebrations in style here on Instagram.”
Other social media stickers for Queen’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations include a guardsman and his horse enjoying a Jubilee tea, a crown, a popping bottle of champagne, and bunting. Additionally, there’s also a new filter that will enable you to try on a crown for size.
“We’re hoping as many of you as possible use these tools to celebrate the Jubilee with us here on Instagram.”
Reportedly, Corgis are the Queen‘s favourite breed and, therefore, found a place in the official Platinum Jubilee emoji. “Corgis have been synonymous with the Queen, 96, throughout her reign — with stuffed versions even for sale in the palace shops. As a young princess, the future monarch was given her first corgi Susan on her 18th birthday, but it was her father, King George VI, who introduced the first of the little dogs into the family with a corgi named Dookie in 1933,” People stated.
