Her Royal Highness

Today is Queen Elizabeth's 93rd birthday. She is already the longest reigning monarch of Britain, and has been married to Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh for over 70 years. Queen Elizabeth was born in London on this day 93 years ago, to the then Duke and Duchess of York Albert and Elizabeth. When her uncle abdicated the throne and her father became King George VI, she became the heir to the throne. She married Prince Philip in 1947, and they have four children, Prince Charles, Princess Anne, Prince Andrew, and Edward. She also has eight grandchildren and seven great grandchildren. Queen Elizabeth has had a lifelong love of horses and corgis as well as having created dorgis, which are corgi dachshund mix. I personally hope that Queen Elizabeth has a wonderful birthday that she gets to celebrate how she wishes.

The Duchess of Sussex could give birth to the newest member of the British Royal Family any day now. While we don't know many details about the baby, we do know that the baby will reside at Frogmore House at Windsor Castle. My predictions for the name of this baby is that it will be a classic name with a modern/popular nickname. For example the name Alexandra, which could be shortened to Alex or Alexa. Or the name Leopold, which could be shortened to Leo. Anyway, we will find out when the baby is born! I will keep you updated as soon as I know.

Queen Elizabeth's Coronation Gown 2. Prince Philip's Uniform 3. Queen Mary of Teck's Dress 4. Queen Elizabeth's Black Coat (When she gets off the plane in season 1, episode 2) 5. Queen Elizabeth's Wedding Dress 6. Princess Margaret's Wedding Dress 7. Queen Elizabeth and Princess Margaret's Ballgowns (The two on t...
