The Extraordinary Marriage Of Queen Elizabeth II & Prince Philip | Glorious Years | Real Royalty

Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip first met on two separate occasions in 1934 and 1937. The Queen fell in love with the future Duke of Edinburgh in 1939, when she was 13-years-old, and the couple started trading letters. Some eight years later - when Queen Elizabeth II was 21-years-old - the Palace announced their engagement. They married on November 20, 1947, at Westminster Abbey. This documentary remembers the first 50 years of their marriage.

They made it to 73 years married. A most extraordinary achievement.

The Queen was never the same after her “beloved” Philip’s passing. It must’ve been extremely hard but she pushed through another year without her “strength and stay”. Rip to the both of them. The world mourns the absence of this lovely couple.

Say what you may about the royals but The Queen is the hardest working women she really is. 93 and still going.

Prince Philip was extremely handsome when he was younger.

[irishnessie]

The Queen was absolutely beautiful when she was younger. She looked like a 1940s Hollywood actress.

[nanovahidy]

She’s outlasted all the other existing queens with the utmost dignity.

My heart goes out to the Queen and the family. Being married to one for fifty years is a plus. Was married for fifty years before my husband died and I can concur how the Queen feels. It is going to be a hard road for her to travel but I hope that the Lord keep her strong to make her come through this

[dianalopez]

Wow and just a few days ago Prince Phillip turned 99! This couple is honestly really remarkable

[coopsevy]

I loved when the Queen dressed in the military uniform with her husband to me it shows respect to those who served as well as a statement of empathy to her country.

[katherinewilwayco]

Epic moment when the Queen ran after William. The wedding seemed like so much fun and “out of the ordinary”.

Who is here after watching the crown from netflix. I really admired the queen elizabeth.

[worldgurl]

I know her majesty does not give interviews but I hope someone will speak to her about how she stayed married for 70+ years. God Bless her and her family during this dark hour for her family. Rest in Peace Prince

[bernadetteschauerte]

i think the Queen is one amazing woman, she will be hard to replace. She has such wisdom and insight from a young age.
