The Queen offered a "rare" look into her private space in Buckingham Palace during an appearance with Boris Johnson. The monarch was filmed greeting the Prime Minister at Buckingham Palace. HeirPod host and ABC royal contributor Omid Scobie gave insight into the meeting.
He told listeners: "We saw the Queen out in-person meeting with the British Prime Minister for the first time in 15 months.
"Anyone that follows the Royal Family knows that the head of state has a weekly audience with the Prime Minister.
"But that, of course, had been put sort of on-ice since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic in the UK.
"Their last face-to-face audience was on March 11 in 2020."

"This time was a little different, and the Palace actually released photos and footage from that meeting itself."
