The Queen’s daughter herself spoke of that difficult day in a letter published by Buckingham Palace. Anna regrets the death of her beloved mother and admits that she can hardly hold back her tears.
“I was fortunate to share the last 24 hours of my dear mother’s life. It was an honor for me to see her on her last journey, ”said the only daughter of the monarch.
Princess Anne also thanked everyone who mourns these days along with her families. Relatives did not expect that the nation would be so united by this tragedy. The Queen’s heiress stressed that all these long years the British took the reign of Elizabeth II as “for granted”, so her death was a big surprise and sadness for everyone.
