Late Queen's 'supermodel skills' that stunned her friends

For almost a century, Balmoral Castle held a special place in the heart of Queen Elizabeth ll. From childhood, she would spend several weeks at the grand turreted property in Royal Deeside, surrounded by close family.The Scottish Highland estate was the place where the late monarch felt happiest and most at peace and many observers felt it fitting that she died there, peacefully, last September. But for King Charles, Queen Camilla and the rest of Elizabeth ll’s family, returning to Aberdeenshire this summer is likely to have been tinged with sadness.

There are plans underway to honor Queen Elizabeth II.

King Charles and Queen Camilla were joined by Princess Anne at the Highland crowds at the annual Braemar Gathering today. Charles wore a new tartan for his visit to the Braemar Royal Highland Gathering, a short distance from his summer residence at Balmoral in Aberdeenshire.The King Charles III tartan, named after the monarch, is green, blue and red and was designed by the Scottish Tartans Authority earlier this year to mark the coronation. Charles was accompanied by Queen Camilla, wearing an outfit by Mr Roy, with his sister, the Princess Royal and her husband Vice Admiral Sir Tim Laurence.

The late Queen once made a 'stinging' remark to Kate Middleton about how many luxury holidays she'd been on and it seems she took it to heart. The Princess of Wales was reportedly advised by Her Majesty, who died at Balmoral Castle last September, to cut down on her lavish jetsetting and instead, perhaps seek a 'proper job'.The quip is said to have 'stung' Kate, 41, who is now a key member of the Royal Family and will one day become Queen herself.

Almost a year has passed since the sad loss of our beloved late monarch, Queen Elizabeth II. But the memories of her dedication to duty, her unflappable nature and her wicked sense of humour live on. She had many incredible achievements to her name: she was the longest-serving monarch in British history – her reign was the third longest in world history – and the first to celebrate a Platinum Jubilee.

the OG “spare” is actually Prince Andrew.A new A&E documentary, “Secrets of Prince Andrew,” has revealed why the scandal-ridden Duke of York has always been considered the late Queen Elizabeth’s “favorite” child as well as the original surplus prince.“We know from Prince Harry that the ‘spare’ creates an idea of resentment and jealousy,” British biographer Andrew Lownie said.“[Prince] Andrew was an accident waiting to happen for years.”The Post has reached out to reps at Buckingham Palace for comment.Andrew, 63, was always rumored to be the long-reigning monarch’s most loved and most treasured son, despite not being the firstborn.As the third child of the queen — who died in September 2022 at the age of 96 — and her late husband, Prince Philip, he was second in line to the throne at the time of his birth in 1960.“His birth was celebrated as he was the next male heir, despite [his sister Princess] Anne being [born] second,” journalist Dickie Arbiter said in the doc. “If [King] Charles died, then Andrew would be the one directly in line to succeed him.”He added that the queen had already settled into her life as a mother by the time Andrew came along, as she had given birth to Anne in 1950 and Charles just two years earlier.“Courtiers” author Valentine Low interjected and pointed out how she was an “indulgent” mother to Andrew, and with him, she could “sit back a bit” to enjoy motherhood.

King Charles already had access to an impressive portfolio of homes that stretched as far south as Tamarisk House on the Isles to Scilly to The Castle of Mey in Northern Scotland - but he has now added several more. While many of these official residences are controlled by The Crown Estate there are some properties, such as Balmoral Castle and Sandringham House, which are privately owned. Throughout his many years as Prince of Wales, The King lived in a number of properties - but always had his eye on one home in particular.

When naming a new royal baby, there are certain traditions that the Royal Family like to stick to.

Soon the Royal Family will mark the first anniversary of the Queen's death, but Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are said to have "not been invited" to the gathering, according to a royal expert. Queen Elizabeth II died at the age of 96 on 8 September 2022 at Balmoral in Scotland, after reigning for 70 years. Historian, writer and broadcaster Tessa Dunlop spoke exclusively to OK! and said there's going to be a "royal gathering at Balmoral" for the family to commemorate the Queen in private, without any public events planned.

The poignant image of Anne, Princess Royal last September escorting her mother’s casket during her solemn final journey from Balmoral to Windsor is one that remains etched on the minds of so many of us. Now, as she celebrates her 73rd birthday, she faces more heartache as the one year anniversary of Queen Elizabeth II’s death approaches.

There have been many attempts to compare Meghan Markle to the late Princess Diana since her relationship with Prince Harry became public.

Balmoral in the Scottish Highlands is always a magnet for the royals each August as the extended family gather for their annual staycation. But this year’s get-together will be tinged with sadness - not only is it the first year without the late Queen Elizabeth II hosting, but it’s where she passed away, just 11 months ago, on September 8. However, one expert has told OK! that the first visit of King Charles' reign will also be far more "relaxed" as the royals were "in awe" of the late monarch.
