Why the Queen only carries money with her on this day
It has long been debated whether the 91-year-old monarch carries money with her on a day-to-day basis.
Now, it has been revealed that the Queen does in fact carry cash with her on one day of the week.
The Queen only takes money with her when she leaves Buckingham Palace on Sundays so she can make a donation at Church.
A UK newspaper has reported that the Queen leaves money on the collection plate at the end of the service.
Royal experts reported that one of the Queen’s butlers irons either a £5 or £10 note so that she can place the money on the collection plate discreetly.
Experts have also previously revealed that the Queen carries a lipstick, compact mirror, mint lozenges, reading glasses and a fountain pen in her handbag.
The Queen is rarely spotted without her favourite Launer handbag during her daytime engagements.
On Saturday, the Queen was seen with one of the designer’s handbags as she watched the racing at Ascot.
The Queen wore a pale pink coat teamed with a matching hat as she saw Frankie Dettori race to victory in the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes.
