As the world’s longest reigning living monarch, Queen Elizabeth II has become renowned for her quiet stoicism and calm in the face of hysteria.

Unlike some of the other royals, ahem, like Princess Margaret or Prince Harry, she’s never really been caught in a juicy scandal or been photographed in the middle of some questionable act.

But The Queen is human like the rest of us after all, so over the decades her myriad of emotions have been captured on camera – and they’re an absolute joy to witness.
