Is that Queen Elizabeth blushing?!

Her Majesty hosted a state banquet at Buckingham Palace on Thursday night for the Commonwealth Heads of Government meeting, and she got the chance to greet Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in the palace's Picture Gallery.

The photo of their greeting is quickly making the rounds on the internet, as the Queen is unmistakably grinning from ear to ear, and we swear we can see her slightly blushing in the shot! Wearing a tiara, diamond necklace and gemstone earrings, she looks just as smitten as everyone else who meets Trudeau is.

Also in attendance at the event were Prince Charles, Prince Harry and Prince William.

According to People, it could very well be the last year that Her Majesty hosts the power-player-filled event as she plans "to scale back on her duties and hand more responsibility over to her son, Prince Charles," who she officially recommended to succeed her as head of the Commonwealth this week.

While in London, Trudeau was asked whether or not he would be attending Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's highly-anticipated upcoming royal wedding on May 19 in St. George's Chapel at Windsor Castle.

"I of course with them the very best, but I have important responsibilities elsewhere," he said with a smile.
