Here are some unknown and interesting facts about Queen Elizabeth II:

– Elizabeth the Queen never attended school: But that doesn’t mean she is illiterate. Elizabeth, known as Lilibet as a kid, had private tutoring at home. Princess Margaret, her younger sister, experienced the same thing.

– She once partied covertly in the streets of London with her sister: Elizabeth and Margaret obtained their parents’ approval before participating in the huge gatherings marking the end of World War II on May 8, 1945. The Queen described the occasion as one of her most treasured memories. Even the story of Elizabeth and Margaret’s misadventure was recreated in the movie A Royal Night Out.

– On the day of her wedding, her tiara broke: The diamond tiara had to be repaired right away, but Town & Country reports that it was successfully stitched up in time for the ceremony.

– The man she married was actually related to her: Elizabeth’s husband, Philip, and they were technically third cousins. On her father’s side, Elizabeth is linked to Queen Victoria, and on his mother’s side, Philip was related to Queen Victoria. Philip was born into the royal dynasties of Greece and Denmark, but after marrying Elizabeth, he gave up his former thrones. He passed away on April 9, 2021, after 73 years of marriage.

– The Queen’s actual birthday is April 21, but the nation doesn’t formally commemorate it until June 11. As a result, she had two birthday celebrations each year. Monarchs whose birthdays fall during the colder months usually plan an extra, official celebration when the conditions are more likely to be favourable for a parade. Every June, Elizabeth held a ceremony called Trooping the Colour.

– She also had access to a private ATM at Buckingham Palace, which is run by Coutts, one of the most prominent banks in Great Britain.
