    I can't get over the footage of the two of them after the engagement announcement. They were absolutely glowing with happiness, and such a good looking young couple. Very sad day today.

      @@larryjenkinson4789 They spent a lifetime in charity work, and worked well into their nineties. I don't know of very many people who work that long. She also served driving ambulances during the war, and he had a military career for years until she became Queen and he couldn't anymore. If you mean neither of them would ever have to work at McDonalds' or dig ditches, then you are correct.

      @@willawallace2090 I meant what I wrote.Theyve never worked.I've heard it said they have a role, which is different.
      Is there any chance of any of them being made redundant or laid off ?? No, because they don't work.

      That happiness was somewhat disrupted in 1950 though. Prince Phillip was placed in command of a British warship right around the time the Korean War broke out, and Britain entered the conflict in support of the U.S.-South Korean coalition (though from what I've read his vessel was sent to Mediterranean duties). With the world on edge (since no one knew what the Soviets would do) and not knowing what her husband of only 3 years might get mixed up in, it must have been pretty frightening times for young Elizabeth. Thankfully things calmed down a bit eventually.

    The Queen & Prince Philip's lives of service should remind everyone of the huge, tangible power for peace and stability the British monarchy is for everyone in Britain, the commonwealth and for the world. If there are many reasons England, Wales, Scotland, Canada and Australia, have had no civil war since Culloden in 1746, having a constitutional monarchy is an important one. In the 19th & 20th centuries the U.S.A, France, Germany, Italy, Spain and Greece suffered various civil wars, political storms, and dictatorships. This shows what can go wrong in the absence of a stable constitutional monarchy that is above politics, which helps keep the peace.
    The Queen & Prince Philip had their failings as parents. Prince Philip could be tactless. Whatever mistakes he and his family have made, let us be grateful for the service he gave, and the difference the monarchy makes for the better, in everybody's lives.
