BREAKING NEWS: The Vigil of the Grandchildren is live. Please tune in on Sky News (YouTube). #QueenElizabeth Image
This is an incredible moment, folks. Touching beyond words.
That young kid you see is James, Viscount Severn. Prince Edward’s and Sophie’s youngest. And the Queen’s youngest grandchild. Image
Mum: “James looks EXACTLY like William at Diana’s funeral.” #QueenElizabeth ImageImage
Zara Phillips, Princess Anne’s daughter. She’s ravishing. #QueenElizabeth Image
Something just fell. Zara picked it up. Did anyone see?? #QueenElizabeth
Spare a care for Peter Phillips. The Queen’s oldest grandchild, and allegedly, her favourite. Image
Mum, just now: “This is the last time they will be this close to their grandma ever again.”

💔💔💔

I leave you with this image. The Vigil of the Princesses. Moving. Splendid. Beautiful. Image
Poor Princess Eugenie didn’t make it in the shot, so here she is. Image
Notice the matching headbands.

Catherine is super blessed by having such a rapport with her in-laws.
I give a lot of credit to William about his wife being so loved by her in-laws. He had as much animosity towards Camilla that Harry still has. But he overcame it for the sake of the family and the crown.
So instead of Catherine seething towards Camilla in a show of emotional support to William, like the other woman does for Harry, they forged a new bond together. Are all the hatchets buried? Nah. But the maturity to interact without anger is important. Something Harry can’t do.

Guys, guys! The Royal Family visited #TheQueue!
Lord, this was just the right gesture to make. Most of those stalwart people in #TheQueue know they it’ll be a long haul. 24 hours to see the Queen, IF they get to see her. To get a surprise visit by William and Charles is ALMOST a sop.
The lady on the left photo who handed Paddington to Charles came all the way from PERU to do so. The Queen touched everyone. She just wasn’t the People’s Queen.

SHE WAS THE WORLD’S QUEEN. #TheQueue

🧵Thread on the Lore of Royal Funerals.
Amongst the most impressive facets of the topic of royalty, is the pomp and circumstance attached to their final farewells.
I was made acutely aware of that two days ago, during the Procession of Her Late Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II’s final ride from Buckingham Palace to Westminster Hall, where she is Lying-in-State.

I leave you with this image. If you want a royal Major Johnny Thompson equivalent, look no further than King Michael of Romania. Every bit as masculine. And with an uniform too! YOWZA.
Dedicated family man. Just look at that expression.
I’ll tell you more about him later.
