Royal Silence: King Charles & Prince William Skip Tribute on Queen’s Big Day
Neither Buckingham Palace nor Kensington Palace issued a statement to mark the anniversary of Queen Elizabeth II’s coronation, leaving many royal supporters surprised.
Public Reaction & Legacy
Despite the absence of an official tribute, royal fans took to social media to honor the late monarch, who ascended to the throne at age 25 following the death of King George VI on February 6, 1952. Queen Elizabeth, Britain’s longest-reigning monarch, passed away in September 2022, having ruled for over 70 years.
Historical Significance
Elizabeth was the 40th monarch in a royal lineage dating back to William the Conqueror, who claimed the English throne in 1066. Her reign broke multiple records, surpassing the 63-year rule of Queen Victoria, though she once remarked that it was not a milestone she had aspired to.
Family & Royal Traditions
Her marriage to Prince Philip lasted 73 years, until his passing in April 2021. Together, they had four children: King Charles, Princess Anne, Prince Andrew, and Prince Edward.
The silence from the royal family on this significant day has sparked discussions about the monarchy’s evolving approach to public commemorations.
