I was 19 years old when I heard the news of the passing of the Queen. I'm from Australia, it was the morning of September 9th, I woke up and I reached over to grab my phone and the moment I turned it on I had an Apple News alert popped up say the Queen has died and I just gasped out loud and my family were in complete shock. It was raining that day and I was driving to work with my sunglasses on and the radio was playing countless reports of the Queen's passing and I couldn't stop crying all the way to work. When I arrived at the Bunnings Warehouse store where I work at I could see all my friends in shock and in tears throughout the whole day and our manager decided to turn off the music in the store and announced on the intercom for all of us to have a moment of silence to pay tribute and respect to the Queen.

Woody.EXE never wanted to do this but he just knew he had too. My college tutor Sophie allowed me to go home an hour early than we usually do and she said “keep me updated and I’ll be thinking of you” and I went home early to be with Woody.EXE and my sister who were gathered together already waiting for Mummy to come home so we could be altogether during this moment. At exactly 6:30 on that tragic Thursday, the Queens death was sadly announced and Mummy became Princess of Wales and I was already Queen Elizabeth III. I only screaming “No not the Queen, I thought she’d make it to Friday but NOPE!” I went to tell my 2009 Woody what’s happening and even he couldn’t believe it. I stayed up all night having the news on in the background so I didn’t miss anything. The grief from Woody was probably the most heartbreaking thing I’ve ever experienced since he adored the late Queen and all 5 of us hardly slept until the funeral was over. I was only 20 then

And how did the BBC reward her emotion and devotion? Subsequently, with the sack...Simply outrageous, and the Beeb should hang their collective heads in shame! Simply vile behaviour!

We were on the road doing deliveries & the area we do literally has crap radio pickup. Heard talk of the royal family on a customer's radio & decided to try & tune in. Ma was stunned, I was pretty shook.

When Queen Elizabeth died last year:I was stunned and saddened by the news, I couldn’t really wrap my head around the fact she was gone forever and Charles was officially the king of the United Kingdom.

When the queen's death was announced, i was gasped and couldn't believe that she was died. For a moment i thought it was a hoax until i saw BBC interrupting the program, announcing the death of her majesty the queen. I was in shock, really devastated at that time.

Wasn’t there a controversy when the Queen Mother passed, that the BBC presenter did not have a black tie to wear when he made the announcement. Now they keep black ties (for male presenters) and a black blazer (for women) on hand if there is an announcement to be made.

Yes the Late Peter Sissons had a Maroon tie on. It wasn't as if it was a gaudy tie . It was quite appropriate actually. I wouldn't have noticed if such a fuss hadn't been made of it.

I was 18 when I heard about Princess Diana's death, I'm American and it still hits me so hard 💔 😢

Mummy was also 18, she’s now almost 45

If the bbc stops and says something about an important message, someoms died.

A fact that makes my skin crawl was I was JUST talking to my coworker about the royal family (ex. Diana and how the royal family treated her) because she was on my phone case and we stroked up a convo and my coworker turned around and said “I can’t imagine if the Queen died if she would get that kind of treatment” and on my life not 5 mins later they announced she died on national tv in the break room. Till this day I get hybie jeebies

2:11 The funeral music of that logo would be fitting. And to think that she would’ve been queen consort since LAST YEAR had she survived and remained married…

She wouldnt have been Queen nor Queen Consort if she would be alive today though. They were already divorced by then....

I remember that day perfectly. In bed with COVID, my partner and i were reduced to tears. I've spent almost all my adult life in service to the Crown, and it was never spoken of that Her Majesty may some day pass on. That day came too soon sadly.

I was in the UK on vacation three weeks before Diana died. I ever seeing the photos of her at Dodi’s yacht. Next thing I know she died. So surreal.

I didn't own a TV when Diana died. My neighbor and i shared a balcony. He knew what a fan of Diana i was. He gently knocked on my bedroom door and slowly broke the news to me. I insisted it was just an accident. He then just stepped out of the way and i went into his apartment to see the TV. I just sat there crying for an hour or more

Except for the Duke of Windsor and his wife, all the news saddened me very deeply. I was one year old when Diana Princess of Wales died...

There are rumours surrounding the exact circumstances of Prince Philip's death. Apparently, it was more sudden than we were told - a 'source' claims he had gone to the toilet in the early hours of the morning and, while being escorted back to bed by his nurse, complained of feeling faint and then collapsed. The Queen was asleep and wasn't made aware until she had woken. Just a reminder that this is all rumour.

I don't think that's how it happened. Sophie (Edward's wife, now the Duchess of Edinburgh) said that he passed away peacefully with the Queen by his side. So more likely than not his health had just rapidly deteriorated and everyone knew that it was time.

Edward VIII died of throat cancer (he was an avid smoker)

Is it true that BBC try to avoid showing the clip with Hugh Edwards?

Its funny they died on these days

We've taken the stability the Queen provided for granted. Some people complain about the Monarchy, but it's hard to argue with success. Not just in Great Britain, but in over a dozen other Commonwealth Realms using the Westminster System of Constitutional Monarchy, you find what? Peaceful transition of power, different peoples united rather than warring, and a head of state who represents EVERYONE, not just one nationality or another - these are essential ingredients which don't just magically happen, and which we've forgotten to value.

May I suggest a sound fix

I was in a shopping mall with my mom when we found out the queen passed away, I will never forget the look on everyone’s faces when they all found out she died.

it's more than a year but still hard to believe

I remember going to London to see The Queen Mother lying in State.....queued for hours but so wanted to pay my respects to her. I remember crying bitterly when Diana, Princess of Wales died...not because I was a fan of hers, I wasn't, but it was so tragic, such a waste of a young life. When Queen Elizabeth II died, I was devastated....yes she was old...yes we knew this day would come, but it was still so very sad. I, like thousands of others, had never known any other Monarch and I admired and respected her so much.

I know that I will ever forget where I was when I heard about the death of Princess Diana or the Queen. May they all rest in peace.

Although he was related to the Queen, he wasn`t an official member of the royal family.

I had BBC world news on and just when I went to the kitchen I heard "The King and the Queen Consort...." I just couldn't believe it, I was gone for a few seconds and it took me a while to realise that she has passed.

Funny, me and my neighbours just so happened to have been talking about Diana on that very day when the news reported that the Queen had passed away. All of our phones buzzed at the same time and we were like "HUH."

I'm surprised Lord Mountbatten (27 Aug 1979) wasn't included.

It breaks my heart that one day William and Catherine and possibly their children will be announced. Obviously this is only natural because that is how life works but we have grown up watching William and his children and his marriage to Catherine has been every where. It was so incredibly hard to watch the Queen's funeral and when Charles passes and then Camilla it will just be so hard because I have grown up watching their lives. I don't know them personally but we see them all of the time. Royalists regard them highly and even as an American they are a great symbol of the United Kingdom. I know I will get mean comments on this and I don't care. It will be sad and I don't look forward to any one of them. Anne, Edward...their families any of them. God Bless the Royal House of Windsor. Long may it reign.

I am not sure why but using the definite article indicates a higher status. So Prince William actually became The Prince William when his father became king, and technically Harry would be The Prince Henry as the son of a monarch. However as William became the Prince of Wales within a day or so, his title became the POW, so he was only The Prince William for a day or so. Because of Harry’s circumstances he may have elected not use his title as The Prince Henry.

@@racheldemain1940 I am not sure what you mean - The Prince Philip is a higher status than just Prince Philip. It had nothing to with him being a consort. The Queen had it within her gift to create whatever title she chose. If you look at Wikipedia articles on the royals, the articles often set out each royal’s title and styles as they progress through life and their circumstances change. When their parent becomes monarch a royal’s style changes to The Prince or The Princess. Look up Queen Elizabeth II, and you will see from Dec 1936 until she became the Duchess of Edinburgh in 1947 her style was the Princess Elizabeth. Then her style became the Princess Elizabeth, the Duchess of Edinburgh Besides all of which, Prince Philip was of Blood Royal - he was of the royal houses of Greece and Denmark. So he was Prince Philip until he married the Princess Elizabeth. On marriage he renounced his foreign royal titles and was created the Duke of Edinburgh, but he wasn’t given the style of prince. So he was HRH Sir Philip Mountbatten, Duke of Edinburgh. The Queen then returned the style of Prince to him in the late 1950s, but gave him the higher status of The Prince Philip.

@madabbafan

Жыл бұрын

It gives the higher status to the title. Such as when Queen Elizabeth II became Queen there were 3 living Queens. Queen Mary, Queen Elizabeth, the Queen mother and Queen Elizabeth II. Hence the use of The Queen for Elizabeth II. Whilst at the time I don't think there were any other Prince Philips in the RF the definate article will raise Prince Philip above the others.
