Her Majesty gave Angelina the title of Honorary Dame Grand Cross, which is the female equivalent of a knighthood.

During a private ceremony with the Queen at Buckingham Palace, Angelina was presented with the Insignia of her new title.

Accepting the great honour in a dove grey suit by British couture house Ralph & Russo, Angelina looked delighted as she shook hands with Her Majesty.
