A photograph of the Queen with young Royal Family members has been released to mark her 90th birthday.

The image, one of three taken by celebrity photographer Annie Leibovitz, shows the Queen surrounded by her five great-grandchildren and her two youngest grandchildren.

Viscount Severn is the younger child of Edward and Sophie, the Earl and Countess of Wessex. The couple decided to give their children the courtesy titles as sons or daughters of an earl, rather than the style prince or princess. It is thought this decision was made to avoid some of the burdens of royal titles.
