Love is a profoundly intimate matter, particularly in family affairs, and the Royal Family is no exception. The Queen is not just a monarch and Head of State, but a woman with her children, and a grandmother, in which each family has its own complex story. 

Longer Than Ever

For 67 years and counting, the Queen has reigned — longer than even her great-great-grandmother. Queen Elizabeth was blessed with children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren at that time. Media pressure happens a lot. Then now, let us look at the relationship between the Queen and every family member, even with the in-laws in the picture.

A Strong Family Bond

Queen Elizabeth married Prince Philip, her husband in 1947 — that’s over 72 years already! A marriage is a real success in itself, in comparison to all the others they have achieved. The couple brought into this world over four children: Charles, Prince of Wales, the heir of the throne, Anne, Princess Royal, Prince Andrew, Duke of York, and the youngest of them, Prince Edward, Earl of Wessex. Now all of them had their own families.
