They were married for 73 years.
The Queen spent a lifetime with her beloved “strength and stay” the Duke of Edinburgh – the loyal consort and devoted companion whose unwavering support sustained her during her long reign.
The death of her greatest supporter and husband of 73 years at the age of 99 in 2021 was devastating for the Queen. She knew how to handle him and would retort: “Oh, Philip, do shut up. You don’t know what you’re talking about.”When he shouted at her in private, she would calmly ignore it.During public engagements, she would sometimes be seen waiting for him to catch up with her as he lingered behind, entertaining the guests.
Philip, who had a record of minor motoring accidents, was driving his wife and Lord Mountbatten to Cowdray Park. The Queen holds Philip’s hand as she arrives to address the House of Lords during the State Opening of Parliament “He’s unsung for the total support he gives to the Queen,” a Royal Household insider once told author Bradford. “They’re like Darby and Joan now – it’s very sweet really.”
