The Queen and Prince Philip’s late night dinner date

The Queen and Prince Philip's late night dinner date

The Queen and Prince Philip showed up fresh-faced at an event following their late night.

After almost 66 years of marriage the Queen and Prince Philip still enjoy a dinner date.

The royal couple were seen leaving the exclusive Cavalry and Guards Club at 10:40pm on Monday night, dressed to the nines after dining together.

The octogenarian monarch emerged from the venue in a floor length shimmering dress alongside her 92-year-old husband.

They didn’t let their late night wear them out, fronting up fresh-faced to an anniversary event to mark 50 years of the National theatre the following morning.

Her Majesty, 87, appeared warm and sprightly, greeting well-wishers outside the theatre before touring the venue and admiring the impressive life-size horse puppets from the production War Horse.

The Duke of Edinburgh was equally as energetic as he accompanied the Queen and assisted her in unveiling a commemorative plaque.

The royal couple then watched a dress rehearsal of upcoming production Guys and Dolls, without showing any signs of having had a late night.
