The Queen's tribute to Prince Charles on the occasion of his birthday dinner revealed to him his super cute nickname

Prince Charles officially turned 70 on Tuesday (November 13) and what better way to celebrate an event as important as being surrounded by close friends and family members at a dinner party . Hosted at Buckingham Palace, it was not surprising that the Queen's tribute to Prince Charles at his birthday dinner was the highlight of the evening and drew attention to the comforting bond that the queen and her son share.

The Dukes and Duchies of Cambridge and Sussex were present, along with Prince Philip, the new Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank, and Princess Beatrice, among many other close relatives and friends, according to Hello. To begin the event of the black tie, the Queen raised a glass in honor of Charles and spoke of the privilege of "being able to toast his son on the occasion of his 70th birthday" Daily mail reports. "It means that you have lived long enough to see your child growing up – it's a bit like – to use an analogy that I'm sure it will be rewarded for – planting a tree and being able to watch it grow", she would have said. .

Charles's parents are obviously proud of everything he has accomplished as heir to the throne, but they are also proud of the way he has expanded the family with his children. "During his 70 years, Philip and I saw Charles become a champion of conservation and the arts, a great charitable leader – a dedicated and respected heir on par with all men in history – and a father wonderful."

She continued: "Above all, supported by his wife Camilla, he is his own man, passionate and creative.This toast is a happy birthday to my son, in all respects an original duchy.to you Charles the Prince of Wales . "

I'm sorry, but every time I read the Queen who refers to his son as an "original Duchy", I simply can not. That's the best thing that 2018 has given us, that's for sure.

And as if that was not enough, the queen also explained how the Queen Mother had the impression of watching her older daughter turn 70 and she conjured up a jolly saying about this landmark event. "She has heard that the age of 70 is exactly the age when the number of candles on your cake eventually exceeds the amount of breath you have to blow it."

Charles would have been "touched" by his mother's speech, while Daily mail pointed out that the royal family is "not known for his public statements of love and affection".

This has certainly proven the opposite in recent years. It seems that with the arrival of grandchildren and great-grandchildren, the many royal marriages and the proliferation of insightful documentaries, the royal family is much more at ease to demonstrate his love for each other in public. I mean, just take a look at this recent photograph of the Prince of Wales surrounded by his wife, his children, his daughters-in-law and his grandchildren to see that in action.

No matter what the future holds, I'm really excited to see what this openness will bring to the future.
