The famous faces who could count themselves among the late Queen's inner circle included the likes of Sir David Attenborough, but there was another very well-known celebrity who made the cut.
Incredibly, it was revealed that the monarch and Mission Impossible star Tom Cruise had struck up a friendship in her final months and even had tea together at Windsor Castle after he hosted part of the horse show 'A Gallop Through History'.
It was reported that the Queen and the Top Gun actor "really hit it off" over the summer and even planned a second meeting before she sadly passed away aged 96.
