RIP Queen Elizabeth II |

Queen Elizabeth II passed away this afternoon at the age of 96. She is the only monarch most of us knew because she spent 70 years on the throne and celebrated her Jubilee a few months ago.
It is such a sad day because Her Royal Highness was so iconic and respected. It was hard not to love her. She might not have been our Queen, but it felt like she belonged to all of us.
And now, the Queen has been reunited with her husband, Prince Phillip, who died on April 9, 2021.
The Queen will be succeeded by her son, Charles, who is now the King.
UPDATE: King Charles III released a statement about his mother’s passing.
The death of my beloved Mother, Her Majesty The Queen, is a moment of the greatest sadness for me and all members of my family.
We mourn profoundly the passing of a cherished Sovereign and a much loved Mother. I know her loss will be deeply felt throughout the country, the Realms and the Commonwealth, and by countless people around the world.
During this period of mourning and change, my family and I will be comforted and sustained by our knowledge of the respect and deep affection in which The Queen was so widely held.

Gd save the Queen |

On Tuesday, Queen Elizabeth II welcomed the new Prime Minister of England. After meeting with Liz Truss, the Palace said that Her Royal Highness needed to rest after a long day, even though she looked well in the photos that were released to the public.
Today, Buckingham Palace released an alarming statement about Her Majesty’s health. “Following further evaluation this morning, The Queen’s doctors are concerned for Her Majesty’s health and have recommended she remain under medical supervision,” they wrote. “The Queen remains comfortable and at Balmoral.”
Since that announcement, we have found out that the 96-year-old Queen’s four children, Prince Charles, Princess Anne, Prince Andrew, and Prince Edward, and two grandchildren, Prince William and Prince Harry (who is in England at the time), are rushing to be with her. Kate Middleton is staying behind with her three children, who attended their first day at a new school according to Daily Mail’s Emily Nash.
Several of the Royal reporters whom I follow are being grim about the news and not expecting a positive outcome for the woman who has ruled the United Kingdom for 70 years.
Hopefully, they are wrong, but they know how the Palace handles things better than we ever can.

The Queen did tea with Paddington Bear |

The weekend was all about celebrating the Queen of England’s 70 years of sitting on the throne. So, there were plenty of celebrities who partied alongside of her. But only one person had tea with her during the Jubilee, and it was Paddington Bear.
I bet there is no one else she would want to rock out to Queen with while enjoying marmalade sandwiches than him. Her Royal Majesty looks like she is having so much fun with her new friend, and we are having so much fun watching their friendship blossom.
May their friendship be as sweet as honey!

Prince Louis is Prince Charles’ mini-me |

Today was the Queen’s Platnum Jubilee, and her heirs came out to celebrate with her. Since it was a big party that all of London came out to see, Prince Charles and his grandson, Prince Louis, were out on the balcony of Buckingham Palace with the matriarch of the family.
There was one moment during the celebration that caused the next King of England and his grandson to look like twins. I never saw the family resemblance before, but from now on, I will always see it.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are reunited with the Royal Family |

Back in 2020, when Prince Harry and Meghan Markle left Britain for America, Madame Tussauds in London removed their wax statues from the Royal Family display.
In honor of Queen Elizabeth’s Jubilee, the museum temporarily reunited the Duke and Duchess of Sussex with their loved ones.
Seeing the lifesize candles of them all together makes me wish they could reunite in real life too. I want Prince Harry to have a happy ending with his grandmother, Prince Charles, Prince William, and Kate Middleton. Is that so wrong?
