Prince Philip is the first man in Queen Elizabeth's life and a source of strength and bond
Prince Philip and Queen Elizabeth have been married for XNUMX years, and the love of Queen Elizabeth's life since she was XNUMX years old.
In a rare speech about the Queen's relationship with her husband, she said the Duke of Edinburgh "has always been my strength and my support all these years".
When Queen Elizabeth's father died, Prince Philip was at that time in the golden period of his career in the navy, and when he learned of the death of the king, a friend of Prince Philip said that when he learned that his wife had become the queen, it seemed as if the world fell on him, and he had to give up his duties, give up his future and his work that I like, and once said in an interview, “It was not my ambition to be president of the Royal Advisory Mint. I was charged with this. But, frankly, I would have preferred to stay in the Navy.”
At the coronation of Queen Elizabeth on that day, Prince Philip was by her side and was not crowned as king, but was the first to kneel to her as queen to declare her allegiance.
In addition, his sons did not bear the family surname "Mountbatten", and at that time it was a rich material for caricatures.
Regarding his role as husband to the queen, his greatest contribution has been the constant and unconditional support of the queen.
Those close to the couple say, when the couple were together, he had the ability to relieve stress and create an atmosphere of fun, and a former aide said about Prince Philip, he is the only man in the world who deals with the Queen simply as another human being. The Queen may have worn the tiara, but Prince Philip was the man.
We can only see love in the eyes of Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip in their old and new photos, and with his death, the Queen will feel lonely.
