In 1947, the handsome Prince Philip and the beautiful and elegant Queen entered into marriage hand in hand.
Since then, Prince Philip has been by the Queen's side, guarding his favorite "Lilibet".
Time flies, and the two have gone through 73 spring and autumn together, both of them are old people in their 90s, and they have staggered into 2021.
The 99-year-old Prince Philip is no longer in good health and has been hospitalized and discharged frequently.
On March 4, he underwent another heart operation, and after recuperating in the hospital for more than ten days, he refused to be hospitalized and returned home with the pain.
He knew that his time was running out, and he couldn't go on with his wife anymore, and he didn't want to waste his time in the hospital, and he wanted to spend his last days with his wife.
At Windsor Castle, Prince Philip spent the last days of his life with the Queen.
Prince Philip, who was short-tempered and often open-mouthed, seemed to be a different person, quiet and peaceful, staying in his room or reading or writing letters, sometimes talking to relatives, and going out to bask in the sun when the weather was nice.
He has lost interest in food, but will accompany the queen to dine whenever his body allows.
There are two pictures on the head of the bed in his room, one of the queen and the other of his mother, Princess Alice, the two women he loves the most.
On April 9, Prince Philip came to the end of nearly 100 years of life.
Prince Philip is a loyal and staunch supporter of the Queen, a source of strength, and when he leaves, a huge black hole appears in the Queen's heart.
At her husband's funeral, she thought that she would never see that familiar face again, and that no one would walk with her anymore, and the queen, who did not easily show her feelings, secretly wiped away her tears.
She wrote a farewell letter to her husband with her own hands, "bathed in loving memories, Lilibet. ”
The letter was short but heavy, and it was buried with Prince Philip's coffin.
Prince Philip was originally a prince of Greece and went into exile with his family at a young age.
His mother was forced into a mental illness by her life and was forcibly sent to a mental hospital by her father, who spent all day drinking and didn't care about him.
He could only live in the homes of different relatives, and began to live under the fence again.
After entering the Royal Naval College in Tmouth, he worked hard and excelled, dreaming of becoming a good naval officer.
In 1939, King George VI and his family visited the college, and Philip was in charge of the reception.
18-year-old Philip is 1.9 meters tall, and his appearance is not inferior to that of a star, seeing him, 13-year-old Crown Prince Elizabeth can no longer tolerate others in his eyes.
George VI and his wife did not support the relationship, and Philip was a vulgar down-and-out prince who was worthy of their noble and beautiful daughter.
Elizabeth insisted repeatedly, and George VI finally nodded in approval, and in 1947, Elizabeth and Philip were married.
The Queen and Prince Philip lived like an ordinary couple.
In Prince Philip's opinion, the queen is also an ordinary person, his wife, and the queen only shows the side of an ordinary woman in front of him.
Like ordinary families, they have to have children, and the couple raised 4 children together.
Like ordinary couples, they often quarrel.
When the two quarreled, Prince Philip would call the queen stupid, saying that she had a bad temper like a pig.
The queen, who has always been calm and dignified, will also be yelled at by her husband in anger, and once grabbed a tennis racket and smashed it at Prince Philip, who grabbed the door.
Prince Philip believes that children have their father's surname, and has always wanted them to have his surname "Mountbatten".
He married the queen, not an ordinary person, and was opposed by the royal family, because of this surname issue, the queen has been in trouble for many years.
The queen loved her husband dearly, and did not want to cause discord between the husband and wife over this issue, so she finally came up with a compromise solution, and all of her descendants who did not have the title of His Royal Highness would use the joint surname "Mountbatten-Windsor".
No matter how noisy it is, it is just an embellishment of life after all, and happiness and sweetness are the background color of their marriage.
Prince Philip's scandals are constantly and exaggerated, and the specific truth is impossible to explore, but one thing can be confirmed, the queen's tolerance and generosity are the key to a happy marriage.
Prince Philip loved to make the queen laugh, and when he was in his 90s, he even put on a guard uniform and surprised her on the way the queen passed, making the queen snicker like a child.
From a young couple to a man with gray hair, countless sweet eye calls make people feel the flow of love between them.
They are also different from ordinary couples.
Prince Philip is the Queen's husband and her subject.
When the Queen was crowned, Prince Philip was the first to walk up to her and kneel down to show loyalty and submission.
It doesn't matter what happens at home, Prince Philip always stands behind his wife in public.
The Queen gave Prince Philip a home and gave him a stable life, and Prince Philip reciprocated her with a lifetime of loyalty, support, and companionship.
The death of her husband made the queen figure out something.
She originally did not support Camilla to become queen, but at the beginning of 2022, she publicly expressed her support, probably because she didn't want her son Charles to have the same regrets as herself.
After all, the queen was reluctant to leave Prince Philip alone, and followed her husband more than a year after his death.
