According to the sources, the Queen’s grandson, Prince Harry, and his wife, future Queen Meghan Markle, were in Canada at the time of the Queen’s death. After her death, they both left Canada by plane. Queen Elizabeth II had just announced her intention to appoint Elizabeth Truss as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom the day before.

Initially in life

Elisabeth was born on April 21, 1926,[1] at 2:40 am (GMT), during the reign of her paternal grandfather, King George V. Her father, Prince Albert, Duke of York (later King George VI), was the king’s second son. Elizabeth’s paternal grandfather was King George V. Her mother, Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon, Duchess of York (later known as Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother), was the youngest daughter of Scottish aristocrat Claude Bowes-Lyon, 14th Earl of Strathmore and Kinghorne. She was born by Caesarean section at her father’s home in London (17 Bruton Street, Mayfair). She was christened on May 29 in the private chapel of Buckingham Palace by the Anglican Archbishop of York, Cosmo Gordon Lang. She was given the names Elizabeth after her mother, Alexandra after her paternal great-grandmother who had died six months earlier, and Mary after her paternal grandmother. Her baptism was performed by the Anglican Archbishop of York. She was cherished by her grandfather, George V, whom she affectionately referred to as “Grandpa England,” and her regular visits during his serious illness in 1929 were credited in the popular press and by later biographers for uplifting his spirit and helping him recover. Her close family called her “Lilibet,” based on what she first called herself.

Princess Margaret, Elizabeth’s only sibling, was born the same year as Elizabeth, in 1930. The two princesses received their education in the comfort of their own home under the watchful eye of their mother and under the guidance of their governess, Marion Crawford. The subjects of history, language and literature and music were central to the lessons. The royal family was very upset when Crawford published The Little Princesses in 1950, a history of Elizabeth and Margaret’s early years. The book was called ‘The Little Princesses’. The book provides an overview of Elizabeth’s love for dogs and horses, as well as her conscientiousness and sense of responsibility. Others have made similar comments, including Winston Churchill, who said of Elizabeth when she was just two years old that she was “a character. She has an aura of authority and reflection that is astonishing in a baby,” and Margaret Rhodes, Elizabeth’s niece, who said she was “a merry little girl, but fundamentally sensible and good.”

heir presumptive

At the time her grandfather was monarch of the United Kingdom, Elizabeth was the third person in line to succeed to the throne, behind her father, her uncle Edward and her father. Although her birth sparked public interest, she was not expected to become queen one day. Edward was still a young man and it was expected that he would eventually marry and have children of his own, who would come in the line of succession to Elizabeth. When her grandfather died in 1936 and her uncle succeeded as Edward VIII, she became second in line to the throne after her father. In the latter part of that year, Edward abdicated as a result of the constitutional crisis caused by his anticipated marriage to divorced socialite Wallis Simpson. As a result, Elizabeth’s father became king and took the reign name of George VI. Since Elizabeth had no brothers, she was designated heir to the throne. At the time, the man’s birthright dictated the order of succession, so if her parents had had another child, a son, he would have been placed before her in the line of succession. He would have been the heir apparent.

Elizabeth received private lessons in constitutional history from Henry Marten, the vice-provost of Eton College. She also received instruction in French from a series of governesses who were natural speakers. A Girl Guides company called the 1st Buckingham Palace Company was created specifically to give her the opportunity to associate with other young women her own age. After some time she became a Sea Ranger.

1939 was the year Elizabeth’s parents traveled across the United States and Canada. Elizabeth did not accompany her family on their trip to Australia and New Zealand in 1927 because her father felt she was too young to participate in such excursions. She did the same in 1927. She “looked distraught” when her parents left. They wrote to each other regularly and on May 18 she made the first royal telephone conversation across the Atlantic with her parents.

Finance

Elizabeth’s own wealth was the subject of speculation for years. In 1971, Jock Colville, who had been her former private secretary and also a director at her bank, Coutts, estimated that she had a net worth of $2 million (which is roughly equivalent to £30 million in 2021). In 1993, Buckingham Palace stated that estimates of one hundred million pounds were “grossly inflated”. In 2002, she received her mother’s fortune, which at the time was thought to be worth around £70 million. According to the Sunday Times Rich List 2020, her personal worth was estimated at £350 million, making her the 372nd richest person in the UK. She was said to have had assets of £5.2 billion in 1989, including state assets that did not belong to her. This works out to around £13.8 billion in current value, putting her at the top of the list when it was first published in the Sunday Times Rich List in 1989.

Her official residences, such as Buckingham Palace and Windsor Castle, and the Duchy of Lancaster, a property portfolio valued at £472 million in 2015, were also held in trust by Elizabeth for her successors and the nation. The Royal Collection, which includes thousands of historic works of art and the Crown Jewels, was not personally owned by Elizabeth but was described as being held in her care. The Paradise Papers, stolen in 2017, show that investments were held by the Duchy of Lancaster in the British tax havens of the Cayman Islands and Bermuda. Sandringham House, located in Norfolk, and Balmoral Castle, located in Aberdeenshire, belonged to Elizabeth personally. Because the Crown Estate is part of a trust, she has no legal right to sell or own it in a personal capacity. As of 2019, the Crown Estate was worth £14.3 billion.
