  1. I’m more sad about how she couldn’t show emotion at all and how she couldn’t or didn’t show motherly instincts to her 4 children she had.. The only one she actually birthed was Prince Andrew.. the rest she was put to sleep and baby’s were brought out by forceps or she had a c section.. I feel so sorry she wasn’t there and had to be put in a position so early in life.. but she died knowing she served the crown and had a good life

  2. Watching this makes me feel so sad for Princess Diana. She was harassed and hounded so much only to end up dying in such a horrible way. The Royal family really has had a tough time with marriages, now more recently with Harry and Meghan's debacle

  4. Anyone remember in the League of extraordinary gentlemen at the beginning someone says 'God Save The Queen'

    Just watched it yesterday and never realized before.
    May she r.i.p she was a wonderful lady, but was she really seems so. Regardless for 70 years she resigned like no other. If her uncle didn't abdicate she wouldn't of been Queen and than her dad died so young. It's as if it was meant to be. She was made to be Queen. All the chips fell exactly into the right places.
    It's actually very common for a person to die not long after their spouse died and this seems to be the case with the Queen. They were very close and King Philip died not that long ago. I like how even the English use the word we french here in Quebec and France use in reference to our father which is 'papa' lol royalty really have their traditions don't they. It's cool actually. Added this to my edit.

  5. Rest in peace your Majesty. I served you well. In your institutions of HMP Preston, HMP Haverigg & HMP Forest Bank. It was a pleasure to serve at the behest of your Majesty's pleasure. Thank You for all you have done for me. It's also been a pleasure travelling the world and producing my British passport of your Majesty request to ensure me becoming the international criminal i have like you also put duty first. A smugglelinger and duty free binge & bringer. RIP!

  6. In today's world of texting, Instagram, Twitter, etc. the English language has been butchered. I am an English teacher who doesn't particularly like this ultra abbreviated format of typing but, I don't think that it's a reflection on a person's intelligence if they use this in a comment on YouTube!

  7. She was right to stay with William and Harry because they needed her more. She was right to think an earlier visit to Aberfan would distract from the rescue. And doing unpopular things because they are right is a rare thing.

  8. Thank you ma’am, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth the second for all you gave to the World, I pray that God will help us maintain the British Christian Values, in Respecting the elders and those in places of authority, dressing up modestly and professionally as you always have been, being committed to our God given talents, skills and abilities; serving others without reservation, helping the poor and needy as Demonstrated by the late Princess Diana in Zimbabwe in 1993, of course you would have sent her and taught her; and of course maintaining our families and having Faith in God through Jesus Christ our Lord nut forgetting to watch and pray at all times. Thank you. May your works be rewarded. Rest in peace. God Save the King.

  9. Princess Margaret, wasn't the Queen, why does the government have a say in it. Why didn't they get married outside the church. Or outside of England maybe Scotland.
    I think it was so sad that she never found happiness.

  10. Found it hugely offensive and upsetting to see any reserve in our late Queen's character described as being her "Germanness". My mother is German and she and my grandmother and the rest of my German side are and were the most loving, generous, affectionate and warm people you could wish to meet. It is not just people of colour who are victims of racism. Bless you Queen Elizabeth the Second. RIP.

  11. Margaret could have married Townsend. She did not want to give up the perks of Royal Life, her Princess title and all the money. That is the reason why she decided NOT to marry him.!!
