Since Queen Elizabeth died…..

she literally devoted almost all of her adult life to duty and no doubt missed out on many things.

I remember reading somewhere that the Queen had said the happiest time of her life was when she was newly married and living in Malta where Prince Philip was stationed with the Navy. A young married couple enjoying by all accounts a fairly simple life without having to worry about the affairs of state that would burden her once she was crowned.

Not really, I remember staff coming out after Diana died, most particularly that awful butler man.

I think it’s pretty normal.

I don’t consider the Royals to be any more “special” than the rest of us.

I had a lot of admiration though for our dear departed Queen, she literally devoted almost all of her adult life to duty and no doubt missed out on many things.
