Queen Elizabeth of the UK celebrated the monarch's official birthday today. See how she forgoed a knife and insisted on using a sword to cut her birthday cake.

Queen Elizabeth’s birthday was actually on April 21.

But the monarch’s official birthday is always marked on the second Saturday of June.

The Queen, and Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge and Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall were all attending an event at the Eden Project in Cornwall.

The group organized local volunteers to support each other during the COVID-19 pandemic.
