Her Majesty met Paralympians along with members of the Olympic Team and their support staff. She also appeared to be enjoying a glass of red wine - believed to be her favourite tipple. During the reception, Camilla met equestrian athletes, including eventing team gold medallist Rosalind Canter and Paralympians Natasha Baker OBE, Sophie Wells OBE, Georgia Wilson and Mari Durward-Akhurst.
