Kate Middleton shared a sweet moment with a young girl when she picked the youngster out from the crowd. Elizabeth Sulkovska, eight, was one of hundreds of people to flock to Sandringham earlier today, Thursday 14 September, and was spotted by the Princess of Wales.
Elizabeth came with a corgi teddy to place alongside the Queen’s floral tributes, when Kate, 40, invited her to come place it down with her. Speaking after Kate's heartfelt gesture, the young girl said she was “very happy” to have shared the special moment the mum-of-three.
Elizabeth was taken to Sandringham alongside her classmates from Howard Junior School in King’s Lynn, who were accompanied by the school’s head teacher, Gregory Hill. “Elizabeth was overwhelmed, she cried with joy at being chosen,” he said, as per Mirror Online.
“It’s just a wonderful, amazing opportunity.” He said that the Queen’s death has "touched a young generation as well”, adding: "The older generation obviously knew the Queen for longer but young children that haven’t experienced the Queen for long on the throne still are greatly moved by her passing, and really want to do their best to celebrate her life and legacy and never forget her.” As well as Elizabeth’s corgi, some of the school children made a Paddington Bear tribute – something which was also noticed by the Princess of Wales. The tribute gave the nod to the late Queen’s heartwarming comic sketch with the well-loved children’s book character, which aired for her Platinum Jubilee.
