As much as I hold the very idea of 'Royalty' in absolute contempt, she was a tough old bird, a Brit to the core. During the blitzkrieg of WWII they tried to get her and her husband to leave London. They refused. She worked as a mechanic in the war effort.
During World War II, when there were attempts to persuade Queen Elizabeth (later the Queen Mother) to evacuate her daughters from London during the Blitz, she famously stated, "The children won't go without me. I won't leave the King. And the King will never leave." She also expressed, "I am glad we have been bombed. Now we can look the East End in the eye," according to the Imperial War Museums and the International Churchill Society, after Buckingham Palace was bombed. These statements highlighted her resolve to stay with the British people during the conflict.
I'll take the 59............it's a classic.........
I just can’t imagine the pain and humiliation Of waking up and finding out via memes and social Media that your spouse likes Coldplay. Must be devastating! Certainly grounds for divorce!!
