She passed.

[Billie Bud]

I’m still gobsmacked she was able to ingratiate herself with the royal family. All it took was looking for and securing the correct connections, which she did so well. Very calculating. Too bad she missed the ultimate goal of William. She was not in the correct circles at the time and had to go with a different plan.

Well said!

That’s what I worry about. Of course, if he does inject himself in political issues, he will not be loved as a King.

[Reily]

But you do have their way with words!

Thank you for clarifying. I guess the 1953 coronation is what the news articles meant when listing the date of her beginning.

We need about a month of Bastille days to occur in America.

Interesting timing with Hillary and Obama’s coming out from under their rocks recently. Podesta too..

Some queens on this side of the pond.

Markle is a small woman. She has no class. She is bitter. She is a pure narcissist.

[karpov]

Well said.

He became king instantly.

[A Navy Vet]

I couldn't care less about the British Royal family. However, she seemed to be a decent classy woman, but the squabbling will go on for years amongst her heirs. So who is the King or Queen of England now?

The bigger question is will Biteme or Obambi actually bow at the reception or whatever? I want to watch Obambi now bow to our most loyal ally. He didn't when he met her but did bow to the Saudis and other lessor potentates. This should be interesting.

Queen.

There are three types of Queen.

Queen Regnant - A reigning Queen

Queen Consort - The wife of a reigning King

Queen Dowager - The widow of a deceased King.

[David Chase]

Queen Regent too.

[AFreeBird]

Swell, King Chuck. 🙄

[dfwgator]

I think we mourn more the World that has passed since Elizabeth’s reign began. Truly the last link to the old world.

[Vaduz]

Yep her code name a loss to the world.

RIP Liz. You are the last British monarch I had any respect for.

I didn't think she'd live long after Prince Philip died last year. It's a shame the throne had to be passed down to her POS son.

[MinorityRepublican]

Now, out of respect, and the rest of the family abdicate?

They should. It is obsolete anyway.

[pnz1]

Stress over family conflict probably didn’t help her.

Greetings peasants! It's good to be King!
