Queen Elizabeth II Has Died. Her Eldest Son, Charles, Is Now King


She was born a royal, but with little hope of ever wearing the crown.


Princess Elizabeth Mary was born on April 21, 1926. She was third in line to the throne after her uncle and her father, but a scandalous love affair changed the course of her life and paved the way for her to become the United Kingdom’s longest-serving monarch. She became a symbol of comfort and continuity and with her cool and reliable cheerfulness, made her overwhelmingly popular with the British public.


Elizabeth assumed the throne in 1952 at the age of 25 after the sudden death of her father in his sleep at the age of 56. Over the last 70 years, she worked with 15 British prime ministers and met every U.S. president during her time as queen, with the exception of Lyndon Johnson.


The majority of Britons have never known another monarch. She remained very popular until her death. She played an essential role in the functioning of the U.K. as a constitutional monarchy. After the British elections, it is the monarchy who calls on the political party to form the government.


Charles, 73, now will become king and how he will carry on his mother’s legacy will be a big question.
