The past week has been very challenging for Queen Elizabeth.
In its Dec. 21 issue, Woman’s Day dubbed the monarch’s recent week as a week from hell because she dealt with one devastating news after another.
It was revealed that the queen’s staff were in revolt over a directive to quarantine for four weeks around Christmas time to keep Her Majesty safe.
Shortly after, one of the queen’s longest and most trusted staff announced that she will be quitting her job after 32 years of working for the royal household.
As of late, Patricia Earl, 56, hasn’t revealed why she decided to quit her job.
A source told the tabloid that the monarch is very sad to learn about Earl’s decision. And she’s also disappointed to see her former household staff go.
And if these weren’t enough, the queen also bid goodbye to her beloved corgi-dachshund mix, Vulcan.
According to the publication, the queen only has one dog left and her name is Candy.
The queen can’t also celebrate Christmas with the royal family in Sandringham on Dec. 25. And the royal family’s annual Christmas Day walk has also been canceled due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Meanwhile, the queen continues to deal with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s Megxit even though the couple is no longer considered senior working royals.
While speaking with Express, royal correspondent Richard Palmer said that the queen is furious at the Duke and Duchess of Sussex for breaking royal tradition with their Time’s 100 PSA.
Due to the breach, the queen could potentially strip Prince Harry of all his military titles as the review post-Megxit draws near.
According to Palmer, even though nothing has been finalized yet, he believes that the split will become more permanent.
This means that the queen will completely cut ties with Prince Harry and Markle following the 12-month review.
Earlier this year, Her Majesty revealed in a statement that she will be reviewing the terms of Prince Harry and Markle’s decision to quit after a year.
Palmer also said that Prince Harry’s decision to comment on the recent presidential elections in the United States could be the final blow for the queen.
“It was taken really seriously as a major breach of undertakings they had given voluntarily, unlike the commercial deals as far as I can tell,” he said.
But regardless of what the queen decides to do, the public would be informed about it.
