How Queen Elizabeth II welcomed ‘romance’ from husband Prince Philip
Queen Elizabeth II and her husband Prince Philip, shared a great bond, says an expert.
Former photographer, Arthur Edwards, reveals how Her Majesty and husband shared immense love through their life of duty.
Speaking on The Sun’s Royal Exclusiveshow, Arthur said: “For sort of 70 years, he was walking behind the Queen, shaking hands with the mayor while the Queen was talking to the mayor.
“And he did that with total commitment forever, until he retired a few years before he died. That man was an amazing man.”
He continued: “And that marriage, I remember the last one of the last trip to Australia in 2011 in Perth, and a child couldn’t get to see the Queen and PrincePhilip lifted her over the barrier and took the flowers off her, and he gave them to the Queen.
“And the look between the two of them when he did that, I mean, it was something special,” he noted.
“I’ve seen that a few times with them.
“The one with the picture that really sums it all up was the last time he was at the Cenotaph and he was on the balcony, and his hip was really hurting him, and he was in great pain, and the Queen pleading with him to go, but he wouldn’t do that.
“To him, being there was his duty.
“I remember as he left a puff of his cheeks, he was getting away to get some relief, that to me, summed it all up about that man,” said the expert.
