THE QUEEN LETTING YOUNG FANS STEAL THE LIMELIGHT IS A GREEN GODDESS ON A WHIRLWIND TRIP TO NORTHERN IRELAND

Fitzwilliam CorrieSalmon photobombs Her Majesty's visit to Knotts Bakery, much to the delight of the royal guest and his father William Corrie

Dressed in a miniature tuxedo and bow tie and flashing a cute grin, 23-month-old Fitzwilliam Corrie-Salmon stole the spotlight as he posed for cameras while his father chatted to their royal guest in the background.

'We have a natural for the cameras, she joked, as the toddler posed

However, Her Majesty looked only too happy to be upstaged by Fitz. "We have a natural for the cameras," she announced, smiling broadly as she watched the toddler, who is the son of William Corrie, the co-owner of Knotts Bakery in Belfast, and his former Blue Peter presenter wife Zoe Salmon.

A SOLO ADVENTURE

"She was a lovely lady. Genuinely interested in the products," said William of the Queen, adding: "We did joke that Fitz stole her thunder for a minute."
