Does Queen Elizabeth agree to reveal a mystery about the royal family for XNUMX years

A British geneticist has revealed that Queen Elizabeth II and Westminster Abbey have refused requests to examine the remains of two disputed princes kept in the Abbey Tower, adding that another way might persuade the Queen and the Abbey to agree to subject the bodies to examination to reveal one of history's greatest mysteries.

The term "Princes in the Tower" refers to the two royal sons, Edward V and his younger brother Richard, Duke of York, who both disappeared in 1483. After the death of their father, King Edward IV, his 12-year-old son was about to inherit the throne - but it was soon announced He is an illegitimate heir because his father had engaged another woman before he married Edward's mother. Accordingly, the uncle of the two princes inherited the throne and became King Richard III, and the boys were never seen in public again, according to the British newspaper "Daily Express".

Two years later, Richard was killed at the Battle of Bosworth by Henry Tudor, who took the throne and fueled rumors that his predecessor and rival had murdered his nephews for fear of losing the throne. And when two skeletons were found in the Tower of London in 1674. King Charles II ordered them to be placed in "Westminster Abbey" in a jar in the belief that they were Edward and Richard.

However, subsequent requests from the BBC, Channel XNUMX and the Richard III Society over the past three decades to examine the remains with modern identification techniques have been denied.

The justification of the Queen and then Home Secretary Michael Howard and Dean of "Westminster" was that subjecting the bodies to genetic analysis might set a precedent that could lead to similar demands for the exhumation of royal graves. It is worth noting that these requests were submitted again after the discovery of Richard III's remains in Leicester in 2012 and were rejected again.

In response to a request in this regard in 1995. The Dean of "Westminster" said that television coverage of such an investigation would cause "a great deal of sensational speculation", noting that such an examination would not be thorough enough to solve the mystery of the two princes' deaths.

However, geneticist Dr Tory King, who worked on the groundbreaking archaeological excavations that led to the discovery of Richard III, has revealed an alternative way for you to disclose that could be approved by the Queen and Westminster Abbey.
