Queen Elizabeth Joins Birthday Celebrations For Archduchess Helene of Austria

On one of her rare private night outs Thursday evening, Queen Elizabeth II attended a dinner at The Ivy in London to celebrate Archduchess Helene of Austria’s 80th birthday.

The Queen, wearing a cream lace dress underneath a black paisley shawl, was spotted upon arrival and on departure from the party, which was also attended by Prince and Princess Michael of Kent.

Archduchess Helene is the daughter of Count Carl Theodor zu Törring-Jettenbach and Princess Elizabeth of Greece and Denmark, an elder sister of Princess Marina, Duchess of Kent. She married Archduke Ferdinand of Austria in 1956, and had three children: Elisabeth, Sophie and Maximilian.
