Queen Elizabeth II Demise: Inspiring Quotes That Take Forward Royal Legacy…
- Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom passed away at the age of 96!
- The Royal Palace shared an official post on social media and announced this sad news!
It is all known that Queen Elizabeth II passed away on 8th September, 2022 fighting with old-age health issues. She breathed her last at the age of 96 and from the past one year she is facing health issues. The Royal family issued an official statement regarding the sudden demise of the Queen on their Twitter page.
Along with sharing the pic of Queen Elizabeth, they also wrote, "The Queen died peacefully at Balmoral this afternoon. The King and The Queen Consort will remain at Balmoral this evening and will return to London tomorrow."
They also shared a few throwback pics of King and Queen… Along with it, they also dropped a long note, ""𝑊𝑒 𝑚𝑢𝑠𝑡 𝑔𝑖𝑣𝑒 𝑛𝑜𝑡ℎ𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑙𝑒𝑠𝑠 𝑡ℎ𝑎𝑛 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑤ℎ𝑜𝑙𝑒 𝑜𝑓 𝑜𝑢𝑟𝑠𝑒𝑙𝑣𝑒𝑠. 𝑇ℎ𝑒𝑟𝑒 𝑖𝑠 𝑎 𝑚𝑜𝑡𝑡𝑜 𝑤ℎ𝑖𝑐ℎ ℎ𝑎𝑠 𝑏𝑒𝑒𝑛 𝑏𝑜𝑟𝑛𝑒 𝑏𝑦 𝑚𝑎𝑛𝑦 𝑜𝑓 𝑚𝑦 𝑎𝑛𝑐𝑒𝑠𝑡𝑜𝑟𝑠 - 𝑎 𝑛𝑜𝑏𝑙𝑒 𝑚𝑜𝑡𝑡𝑜, '𝐼 𝑠𝑒𝑟𝑣𝑒'. 𝑇ℎ𝑜𝑠𝑒 𝑤𝑜𝑟𝑑𝑠 𝑤𝑒𝑟𝑒 𝑎𝑛 𝑖ns𝑝𝑖𝑟𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑡𝑜 𝑚𝑎𝑛𝑦 𝑏𝑦𝑔𝑜𝑛𝑒 ℎ𝑒𝑖𝑟𝑠 𝑡𝑜 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑇ℎ𝑟𝑜𝑛𝑒 𝑤ℎ𝑒𝑛 𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑦 𝑚𝑎𝑑𝑒 𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑖𝑟 𝑘𝑛𝑖𝑔ℎ𝑡𝑙𝑦 𝑑𝑒𝑑𝑖𝑐𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛."
The Queen spoke these words as Princess Elizabeth on her 21st birthday, knowing that one day she would succeed her father King George VI as Monarch. Her commitment to a life of service became a guiding principle throughout her reign and was illustrated in the sheer volume of work which she undertook as Queen - from her early Commonwealth tours which lasted for several months at a time, to the many official engagements which she attended well into her final years.
In a letter written by King George VI to Princess Elizabeth shortly after her wedding, King George VI wrote of his confidence in her commitment to her Royal duties, saying, "I have watched you grow up all these years, with pride … and I can, I know, always count on you, and now Philip, to help in our work."
In turn, The Queen said of her own son The Prince of Wales - now The King, "For Prince Philip and me, there can be no greater pleasure or comfort than to know that into his care are safely-entrusted the guiding principles of public service and duty to others."
His Majesty The King has spent his working life serving the public through his patronages, with a particular focus on environmental causes and young people. His many duties in support of The Queen have included representing Her Majesty and the UK overseas, attending events including State Visits to the UK, the State Opening of Parliament and Commonwealth Heads of Government Meetings.
