I’m reading a bio on King Charles and this part comes up and I know you will love it!🤣

I’ve always loved this story lmao it never gets old!

"I only hope Philip isn't just flirting with her," I once told Marina. "He's so casual that he firts without realizing it." Marina said soberly, "I think his flirting days are over. He would be the one to be hurt now if it was all just a firtation or if it is not to be. One thing I'm sure about, those two would never do anything to hurt each other.

I WISH I could remember what book I read this in because I hear no one talking about this but there was a small part of this book about the queen where it talks about how this Australian government person came to England to meet the queen and the queen knew that he was anti keeping the monarchy for Australia (or something like that, I might be skewing this a little bit it was a while ago when I read it) but he gifted her a fur rug and she sat on it, directly in front of him and basically stroked it seductively and let a slight bit of her sexuality show and the guy literally told someone along the lines of “well if the queen is like that then I suppose the monarchy can stay” and I feel like that solidified what we all already knew that she was seductive and passionate as hell. (If I can remember the book and chapter I’ll report back and post an excerpt!)

After dinner, Whitlam gave the Queen a birthday present: a ‘deep-piled cream sheepskin rug,’ which she and her sister flirtatiously sat upon after it had been spread on the floor of the drawing room. ‘That evening she was quite determined to catch her man,’ Martin Charteris told author Graham Turner. ‘A lot of her sexuality has been suppressed, but that night, she used it like a weapon. She wrapped Gough Whitlam round her little finger, knocked him sideways. She sat on that rug in front of him, stroked it and said how lovely it was. It was an arrant use of sexuality. I was absolutely flabbergasted.’ Whitlam later said to Charteris, ‘Well, if she’s like that, it’s all right by me!’”

Today marks 70 years since Queen Elizabeth II acceded to the throne, following the death of her father, King George VI.

This is the first footage we have of Elizabeth as Queen, taken by Philip.

Queen Elizabeth II has started using Prince Philip’s walking stick, according to Gyles Brandreth.

I’m predictable. Dependable. Reliable.

– I would pick dependability every day of the week.
