‘You pledged yourself in service to the people of Britain and the Commonwealth, and I feel that in all the years since you have never betrayed that promise.
‘I would like to say my warmest congratulations to you, Ma’am. And thank you.’
Cilla star Sheridan Smith also shared her Royal memory on the important day, explaining how much it meant to her personally.
‘Your Majesty, one of the last memories I have of my dear father was of him escorting me to Buckingham Palace to receive my OBE,’ she said in another video.
‘It was a very special day for him too and one that he cherished dearly as you have touched the hearts of generation upon generation.
‘You are beloved by children, parents, grandparents and great-grandparents. Your selflessness and dedication to duty is beyond compare.
‘I just wanted to take this opportunity to say a huge thank you and to send you my best wishes on your Platinum Jubilee.’
