He abdicated (not retired) because he married a divorced woman.

And the Queen doesnt really “retire.” She is Queen until she dies. Could be tomorrow. Could be twenty years from now. Her mom lived until 100. I dont think there has been a case of a monarch retiring, but I am really off on my British Royalty.
