Queen Elizabeth

 

From dogs to horses. The English "fixation" for a tea or a martini at dinner. Queen Elisabeth, who remained on the throne for more than 70 years, also had her passions and whims. But who are they?

Double birthday - Elizabeth was born in London on April 21, 1926, right in the house of her maternal grandparents at "17 Bruton Street", where there is now a Chinese restaurant. But she was celebrating two birthdays. The first, privately, on April 21, the day of his birth, and the other, officially, on the first weekend of June, on the occasion of the "Trooping the Color" parade.

Love of animals - It was 1933 when the Duke of York gave each girl a Pembroke dog, a variant of the Welsh corgi. Since that day Elizabeth has had more than 30 dogs of this breed. She owned all the swans in the UK. And also, dolphins and whales in the waters of Great Britain: if caught within three miles of the coast, they were claimed as the property of the Crown. She inherited her passion for horses from the Queen Mother as a child, who made her never miss a Royal Windsor Horse Show since 1943. Even on her 96th birthday, she had her picture taken with two beautiful gray pony.

The "drinks" of the day - When the morning alarm went off, Elizabeth drank tea. And like any self-respecting Brit, the 5pm meeting with the warm drink wasn't missing.

"She drank tea every afternoon, every day, anywhere in the world, whether it was just at Buckingham Palace. It was like a religious rite for him," says former Royal Household chef Darren McGrady. However, for a year, the sovereign, on doctors' orders, had to give up her evening drink, the Dry Martini. Instead, she continued to drink a glass of sweet wine with dinner, while in the past she was rumored to consume a glass of champagne before bed.

Passports and driving licenses - He issued them to everyone, but he didn't have them himself. UK passports and driving licenses are issued by Her Majesty. But Elizabeth, who loved to travel and drive, had neither. At the age of 95, Queen Elizabeth was seen driving her car near the Windsor estate just days after doctors advised her to rest for at least two weeks.

Favorite Books – She was an avid reader of detective stories. Favorite authors were PD James, Dick Francis and Agatha Christie.

She loved French – During institutional trips abroad the Queen gave speeches in French, demonstrating an excellent command of it.

Football fan – The Queen used to support the Arsenal team in London. This was revealed in 2016 by Labor leader Jeremy Corbin in a speech in the House of Commons. And the news of the death of Queen Elizabeth II echoed in the Kybunpark stadium in St. Gallen, where Arsenal were about to return to the pitch in the second half of their Europa League Group A opener against Zurich.

Eyeshadow and lipstick – Elizabeth never wore eye shadow. "Movie stars need to be noticed, I don't need it", she repeated time and time again. However, he did not give up the lipstick. This choice dates back to the day of her coronation, when Parliament ordered a lipstick that perfectly matched the ceremonial tunic. It was 1952 and her lip makeup was a shade between red and blue. It got the name "Balmoral Lipstick".
