I love how much King George loved being a girl dad. Most men in his position would’ve wanted a son to take over but he seemed so happy and content with his daughters and wife.
Yes. True
He seemed like a genuinely decent, upright and kind man and sovereign.
He did not need a son. He was never supposed to be King
@@tyronekracht461 True. But even if he knew he’d be King before he had kids, I still think he felt 100% fulfilled with Elizabeth and Margaret.
The king was 41, and queen mother was 36 when they ascended the throne. They easily could’ve had a son to take Elizabeth’s place but didn’t. That’s why I respect George VI and the queen mother
The irony that the Church of England was founded so Henry VIII could divorce Kathryn of Aragon and marry Anne Boleyn but that same church denied Margaret and Peter's marriage is mind boggling.
A. Michelle Henry Vlll was the church of England, a despot. He did what he wanted to do at the end of the day. 400 years later the parliament and church and culture are stronger than the kings and queens of England. At least in the mid 1900's.
@@misslawlesss Indeed he was. I guess what was good for the king wasn't good for the princess.
So true
As for King Edward and Wallis.
The Church of England was not created so that Henry could get a divorce. It was created to invest Henry with the power to annul his marriage on the grounds that it was contrary to God's law to take his deceased brother's wife to wed. Divorce remained extremely rare in the Church of England, including among the aristocracy, until well into the modern period.
Princess Margaret was absolutely beautiful like a piece of art in her youth.
🤣🤣🤣
She was
Agreed...
Did her
Her and Queen Elizabeth they're like a twin. They are seemingly lookalike.
Came here after the Queen passed away. 70 years after the death of her father, 20 years after her sister and mother, and a year after her husband, the Queen passed away, finally reunited with her parents, her only sibling and her rock. Rest in Peace to the Queen, and to her family. The deepest condolences to the ones she left behind, she will always be remembered.
Philip was Her partner not husband
@@VenusEvan_1885 It's husband. They married in 1948.

@levent.a.7280 help me, they were partners? I mean, at ruling? But also married, yes? I appreciate your help.
I've have always thought that Princess Margaret was a beautiful woman. She really was.
In her heyday she was gorgeous!
Her one time husband Lord Snowden used to equate her looks to a “Jewish manicurist.”
Stunning!!!
I used to think she was beautiful but not so much now. Princess Anne was stunning as a young adult. Not so much now especially her hair. But I cannot blame her since the UK ppl do not have access to high quality hair dressers.
Max Wilson He did that just to get her goat. They liked to get a few friendly jabs in. 😊 [Edit: Besides, we Jews don’t give manicures; we get them. 😉]
It's so strange that they didn't give Margaret a more comprehensive education after what had just happened with the result of a younger sibling being unprepared for the throne.
jan rees Mummy stated they were royals, the Crown's gradndkids. There was no need. The purse and marital status will provide. Her grandson Andrew: (2015 onward): BULLSHIT! Bea and Genie's hubby will need real jobs because my brother wants to cut my and their allowances.
That was my first thought as well, I also wonder how come they didn't?
They very likely assumed that Elizabeth would have sons who’d nudge her down the line of succession. She did, but they couldn’t know she would. So I see your point!
That's why Henry and Harry were both prepped for this
@@RaymoreRockStarMom Harry's name is Henry. Did you mean William?
Is anyone not British watching or is it just me? .-.
I’m not!
I am. Part of my interest comes from having a mother who resembled the Queen. It was my mother who said so. Mom was exactly 5 years older, sharing an April 21 birthday.Wonder what my mother would have thought of all of this. We're from the Pittsburgh PA US area. Mom lived to 88.

I'm not British but I'm still watching it
I think the sisters admired the differences in each other. I think it broke the Queen's sister heart when she denied Margret the marriage to Peter. The fact that they were able to move past it speaks to the bond and love between the two of them.
Until the age of 25, the Queen could refuse her sister to marry which she did and Margaret was asked to wait. On reaching 25,, Margaret could have married Peter Townsend, however she would have had to give up her right in line to succession to the throne as would have her children. Perhaps that played in the balance for despite all Margaret was very attached to her status as Princess and all the frills that went with it.
Margaret could have married Peter Townsend but she chose to continue receiving her allowance on the Civil List .She chose money over love!
@@EVALLOYD she was arrogant and mean.
@@EVALLOYD it wasn't her position in the succession but rather her adoration of her sister, her resolve to stand by her. It was only a small part monetary, as her sister would have looked after her.
@@valluscott8616 such an ignorant comment. Margaret loved her sister and did not want to not support her. The money from the purse is not very much. It was her sister that she denied her lover for.
Queen Elizabeth and Princess Margaret are two siblings who are quite different, just as William and Harry.
Exactly the same!!! The difference between the two of them is exactly how William and Harry!!!

It is no fun to be king and queen with so many public appearance responsibilities and power in hands of parliament.
It's all just ceremony and duties , with no actual power like a prime minister.
she slept in Kenya as princes Elizabeth but woke up as Queen Elizabeth
Of her 4 childeren, only the woman Anne didn't want her children to have a famous royal life. Seems to me that woman are a bit smarter and don't care about their rank but care more about having a normal life.

I simply love the queen for her quiet ways of no complaining and no explaining . She just goes on her ways gracefully and with such dignity. She's a great treasure that the country should be proud of.
Hello, Jennifer,

Marrying for 73 S a long time
It seems to me the Royals kept making thr same mistake by not preparing all the children to be either king or queen just in case something would happen to the first born or heir.
To be fair preping other heir is increased risk of family fight for throne.
mefer swift p
mefer swift how can they do that in modern day? Poison? Kill her?
@@anneneville6255 idk. I never kill anyone afaik.

We need a big budget movie on the sisters, Elizabeth and margaret. Seriously what their journey is underrated.
They have both in film (A Royals Night Out) and TV (The Crown)
I totally agree
The Crown did a fantastic job describing their relationship
Go finance them
Her sis didn’t allow Margaret to wed a divorced man but Charles, the heir to the throne, is allowed to get divorced and marry a divorced woman. Go figure
There were decades and heartbreaking events between those decisions. Nowadays Margaret would live happier I bet
@@kylebfeye9850 Why those words? Would you talk to me that way if you would know me or meet me in real life? I did not praise the Queen or things that were cruel. I just think nowadays with our modern living Margaret would live happier
@@SasaJott lmao k
Different time i guess
There is a difference though I think that if the marriage will not add any children to the line of succession it does not require the monarchs approval Charles and Camilla were both old and couldn’t have children but Margaret and Peter would have still messed up she should have been allowed to marry him
It's been said that Margaret wanted to be treated like a common person, until someone really did treat that way: and then she instantly reverted back to a princess.
Uhuh
This sounds exactly like William and Harry
@smadge100 I agree LOOL. Pictures of Queen Mother when she was younger she was cute...but she did not age well.
Queen Elizabeth and Princess Margaret were so gorgeous! Prince Phillip was quite handsome as well...Tall, smoldering, a bit silly
@smadge100 : It does, somehow, seem to work out. Well, not so much for Charles I of course. But usually. ;-D
@@emilycanfield2634 :In the days before healthy nutrition, enthusiasm for exercise, plastic surgery, cosmetic dentistry, professional make-up, and hair dye it was more difficult to "age well." They did the best they could with what was available to them.

@@rispahnyambura William made his marriage proposal to Kate during a travel in Kenya.
So sad :(
That just gave me chills....
Whoa.
I think Queen Elizabeth is an amazing woman, who has been through so much. She is a woman to be greatly admired for her sense of duty and rising to the challenge of being Queen at the young age of 25. She has had to cope with so many scandals within the royal family, and has always maintained a sense of dignity no matter what the situation. I think that Duchess Catherine has many of the same qualities as the Queen, and will one day be the perfect Queen Consort.
Perfection is something we humans are incapable of processing. Just saying.
Shenandoah *I hate to tell you this BUT there is absolutely no such thing as a “perfect” human being.* 🤷🏻♀️
Rosie Callender ah no one is perfect
I agree, nobody is perfect; but, I think the Duchess of Cambridge, and i know she has faults, is as close to perfection as a human can get. I'm 84, so I know I shall never have the pleasure of seeing her in the role of Queen Consort, but I have no doubt that she will undertake and fully fulfill her royal duties in a manner befitting a Queen of England, even if she is not the ruling queen.
I do not understand why Catherine will not be officially Queen of England when all other wives of Kings after Victoria's demise were known as Queens. For instance, King George and Queen Elizabeth were always known as King & Queen, not King And Queen Consort.
Yes, Queen Elizabeth is a good hearted humble, firm and disciplined family Woman. Women can be best leaders, and luckily she was brought up as an ordinary Royal decendant with no expectation of being a Queen until very late in her family's life that he realized that she must groom and train her sothat she ascends to the throne better equipped than him. She didn't marry into power, Power and Authority came to her Father And because of love and respect for his nation he obliged. Perhaps that's what may have caused him to smoke even more regularly. 😁. I also admire Queen Elizabeth as the best Queen ever👏👏👏👌👌🤴🤴🤴💘💘
"The Church of England, did not, would not recognise divorce". That made me laugh as The Church of England was set up by Henry VIII so he could divorce his wife.
It was annulled - as if never happened because his wife was married to his brother
@@anneneville6255 yea and he murdered his wives. Divorce isn't as bad as that.
I always think of that. The entire 'church' exists only because of an uncontrollable willie. ick
@@anneneville6255 you're talking about only his first wife, he went on to behead a few. And annulation because he was desperate for Anne Boleyn.
I mean I wasn’t defending him or so, only explaining what was really the case

Feeling so sorry and sad for Princess Margareth that she can't live with the one she loves like her sister.. 💔😢

@@gutenbird Yes, look at William and Harry, and what they're all going through today.

Queen Elizabeth had put up with a lot of shit in her life, I respect her deeply, such a strong historic figure...
Sge put people through alot of shit also look up her and Prince Williams ties to boarding schools in the 60 70s and all the missing, abused and children that were Murdered and covered up its so much people do not wanna believe but truths dnt stay hidden for too long!
I agree and the way she handled it with such class defines her as a true queen and addition to her legacy that will live on forever😊
Despite his foibles, Elizabeth chose well in marriage, he respected the monarchy and the role he had to play, despite him having to be in the background. He sacrificed everything and should be respected for that.
Truth Seeker
He didn’t sacrifice „everything“, only a career in the navy and for that he gained enormous status, richness, a loving wife and a family. I pray to get that sort of “sacrifice”.
He cheated quite a bit.
Elizabeth married her cousin, Philip and he was prince of Greece and had to give up that title to marry Elizabeth
You had me until your last sentence, Truth Seeker. First of all, they're cousins and the only one in that marriage who rightfully deserves respect is Queen Elizabeth; Phillip was nothing more than a pawn 😑 and utterly disrespectful to his own wife AND Queen
Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip were meant to be. Elizabeth was pragmatic enough and love Philip that much to tolerate and accept her seemingly foible husband. Philip on the other hand does loves Elizabeth and did everything he could to support her as a consort, a role that took him quite some time to get used to. And, he did all he could to protect her and the crown from potential harm.
I loved this. Queen Elizabeth is such a strong lady to go through all of this.
To become a queen at 25, losing her parents, her only sister and to reign in this day and age.

No she didn't. She didn't HAVE to do anything.

Never noticed that till watching this !
The more I learn about the queen the more I respect her. TheReaper!
Did i guess this right?
There is such a sense of responsibility and duty for the Queen and her generation. I think Margaret in the end, had regrets especially regarding Townsend. I hope she is at peace. She deserves that.
Unlike her uncle, Margaret chose the monarchy over love!
@@gillianlandry283 in fairness to Margaret, she was a young woman with no real means of support or trust fund. Everything she had came from her family. David was wealthy in his own right and financed his departure with the sale of several properties to his brother Albert in order to keep them in the royal family. He was also a man of the world, very sophisticated, Margaret was sheltered. Marrying Peter against her family's wishes would have resulted in banishment, loss of family and if not poverty, then a definite downgrading of status. It was a hard choice.
@@elizabethreed5178 I understand, things were not easy in those days and to think that nowadays she definitely would have been able to marry Captain Townsend because divorce is no longer a deal breaker in the Royal Family and especially since she wasn't gonna be Queen!
@@gillianlandry283 I agree. Unfortunately for Princess Margaret, she was born in the wrong era and she suffered for it. Personally, I would hope that everyone gets to be with who they wish. Peace.
@@elizabethreed5178 I don't think poverty. Did he end up poor? She chose her wealth and status over love. I think she should've chosen love and I'm sure that much of that wealth from the royal family would've somehow been funneled to her. I'm sure of that. Some silly, stupid laws they had. She ended up marrying a man whom I don't know if she really loved all that much and if he really loved her much at all as well. Sad situation.
I think she paved the way for William and Harry to marry who they chose. The owe Princess Margaret a big thank you. Without her they wouldn’t have the happiness they enjoy now.
But not for Charles and Andrew, they married someone despite not loving them even though Andrew was a spare and there was another spare in Edward.
Queen Elizabeth ain't no fly by night queen. She is a very strong person after all that shit she went through. Much respect to the Queen.
Someone actually breaks in her shoes for her. No respect earned by me.
@@jolenejones6243 why? Did she done wrong tho?
I think the King was EXTREMELY HANDSOME....he looks a lot like Christopher Plummer. He was dashing. Greetings from Pretoria, South Africa

looked a bit like bowie
Princess Margaret and her father, the king, both smoked so heavily that it affected their health--both dying of smoke related illness (Margaret had a stroke and the king died of lung cancer.)
Margaret was a very heavy drinker
Meanwhile Queen Elizabeth is still alive and probably won’t be going anywhere for a while she’s so OLD!!!! And price Charles looks scary his face is like a zombie on a video game looks like he’s got flaky grossness and skin tags makes me not wanna live that long if I have to look like that 😬

After having witnessed the abdication disaster due to the Wallis Simpson affair, Bertie would've been wise to include Margaret in the grooming lessons Elizabeth had to go through. It would have been much more positive for the younger sister's character, too!
She didn't amount to much after she was forbidden to marry whom she loved; she basically whiled her life away on Mustique with a string of playboys, chain-smoking, always a drink in her hand.
Absolutely gorgeous ❤️❤️
I totally agree. It left her with a lack of self worth.
She was really a child when George VI became King. Then 2nd WW came up, and I dont think the King could have divulged state secrets to a 10 yr old.. Then came QE IIs marriage and King himself being ill and an early death.. I dont think he had enough time.. Sad.
Unfortunately education wasn't really a priority for women at that time especially in the upperclass. Thankfully Anne was given an education that her mother and Aunt were denied. I hope Margaret's daughter was able to have access to a decent education that her mother was denied.

Are you Indian
I think Queen Elizabeth's seeming leniency toward Harry's issues may be due, in part, to the rather strict stance she felt she had to take with Margaret when she wanted to marry Townsend. From what I've read, it hurt Elizabeth to have to deny Margaret her choice of husband.
I think the queen tried her very best to control her emotion because she represent the country stability. I can't blame her, throughout her reign she is there thru up and down. She represent hope and faith to her people.

After watching the Crown the Netflix Series, gave me much deeper understanding that it's hard to make correct decisions especially when the issue of Margaret and Peter, Lilibeth had to decide base on her response whether as a sister or as a queen. And as well as the feelings that Margaret dealt with, we're all humans we make mistakes and feel emotions of envy, unfairness and loathe yet it's remarkable to see how that didn't break the relationship between the two sisters.
The queen is all alone and deeply sad now that her husband die too 😭😭😭 ... my deepest prayers to you queen Elizabeth 2.
Be strong 🙏👑
She has 4 children and many grandchildren. She's not alone.
I feel the Queen's loss now that Prince Philip is gone. Yet their marriage of 73 years is such a feat,a blissful marriage of great love & tolerance.

Yes indeed, they looked both so similar almost like twins. It was hard to tell them apart. I don't think that Princess Margaret was more beautiful than her sister Elizabeth. There father was exceedingly dashing, handsome man with beautiful features, but his wife on the other hand was quite plain, more simple in her physical appearance. She must've had a strong personality though. From what I've seen in another documentary, he had asked her many times to marry him and she refused many times until she finally accepted. Elizabeth looked so much like her father. I think her personality is a lot like his. He seems to have been a more genteel man, with a more demure, timid personality. And it must've been difficult for him to have been thrust into the spotlight when he was given the kingship.

Amazing 😍 absolutely gorgeous 😍😍
Princess Margaret was noticibly prettier than her sister, she was compared to Elizabeth Taylor at the time and looking at pictures she looks like art. That's not to say queen Elizabeth was ugly, she just was blessed in different areas. At the end of the day Princess Margaret was far more exciting, far braver, far more adventurous
Princess Margaret was definitely prettier than her sister.She was absolutely stunning.
The Queen Mother was actually considered a beauty in her youth and had MANY men ask for her hand, and denied even the Prince several times. It was a different time so beauty had different standards.
I'm very sorry for Margaret and for her tragic life. Rest in peace beautiful ❤️
God rest your 99 years soul, Prince Philip. Condolences to the U.K. Queen's family and to the U.K. people.

Doubtful. The one whom is to takeover is of MOST importance. Charles was of MOST importance, BUT Andrew is confirmed the Queens favorite when Charles was born the Charles spent the first years of his life with nannies and such; but when Andrew came around she was more involved with him.
They are probably the troubled ones because they are treated so strange.
@@Cityheart221 well, as I said Andrew is Elizabeth's favorite, look at how he turned out, with his scandals with human trafficking underage girls for sex; Idk if Andrew is still regarded as her favorite since his sex scandals came to light, but what I do know is Elizabeth is still giving Andrew money from her personal accounts.
In about 25 years Louis might fall in love with somebody who isn't white, British, his age or gender.
By that time he will have realized that his parents did absolutely nothing to support his grandfather's second son, the spare.
Louis is not only the second son, he's also the second spare. Then he'll know what he has to expect from his family and the media.
I hope that at least his uncle Harry will be there for him.
@@tanjawinter6492 oh I genuinely believe Harry would be there to support Louis, UNLESS of course Luis turns out to be like Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie despising William Harry Catherine and Meghan. But despite the fact that Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie don't get along with William Harry Catherine (since she chose to be addessed when they got engaged, I respect her wishes), I do feel bad for them because they're having to step down from their royal roles/duties; because of the mess their father Andrew made for himself. Such a shame, his daughters shouldn't be punished for what their father did.
I think its weird how these folks are describing the queen's own emotions about her own sister. Have yall asked her? she is alive.
Phill n queen are second cousins marry their grandma was a queen
Ugly pretty rich poor BLACK white tall short fat slim lets think about it all has one nose two eyes two ears two arms two feet and greatest of all red blood and the breath of God thats what we breath we live we die who is better than who in God sight one king of glory one throne of God think about that all that counts is "LOVE" for each other.💞💞💞🙏🙏🙏🙏
Bertie probably enjoyed the laughter and happiness of margaret, because his own childhood was so awful. Elizabeth being more like his father made it harder to relate, though he still loved and was proud of her.
hello how you doing friend?
When I discovered The Crown, earlier this year; I was speechless by Princess Margaret beauty.
I truly wonder if the real Princess Margaret was that pretty and omg 😱 she was. Like, imagine being THAT pretty in a time of dullness. She could’ve easily been an actress if she was American.
She was a princess.
hello how you doing?
I never knew Margaret was that pretty. She had gorgeous eyes as a young woman. This documentary was really interesting.
Amazing ❤️😍
"One reserved and proper" (show picture of Margaret) "the other lively and controversial" (show another picture of Margaret). Who edits these things?!
Ann Nee I noticed that too!
@Campari Soda Sad but apparently true. Also, there is film footage of the young Elizabeth and Margaret being taught to Heil H!tler. By their parents. Can't imagine why they didn't show that...
@Gloria Elcock : Let's look back a bit. WHO was it dressed in a Nazi uniform a few years ago? Could that be Prince Harry WINDSOR? Whoopsie. While it's true that Edward & Mrs Simpson had Nazi sympathies, they were railroaded out of the country and exiled for life. While you're at it, read up a bit on the Spencers. No humans, no families are blemish free.
@@mckavitt13 Why did the mad people enter this thread
@@annnee6818 Good grief! They enter just about every thread. You should read the psychopath who was on another thread in here, I think. He's reported, I can tell you. At least some of this madness is based on facts... long held secret. PS. Hang in there... not in the wind. 🙆😘
The Queen Mother was amazing, the public loved her and she loved them. So friendly with everyone, always the center of attention! Too bad she couldn’t loosen up her daughter, the Queen is so uptight but she is the Queen, she carries a heavy load and now will have to do so pretty much alone. She can depend on Anne and Edward!
This documentary makes me understand every single word i really like how they describe all the history about the royal family story..love it
Amazing so beautiful world I love it.♥️♥️
hello how you doing?
When they scream "Long live the Queen" they really mean that, Don't they? Cripe, she's 94 y.o. I do believe..
Kimmy Hawk I cannot believe she’s still alive and kicking! My husband said she’s still alive because she eats babies lol
Her Queen mom had stepped down and Elizabeth became Queen
And married. .mom lived till 98 or 99 yrs old
Back in the 1980's early 1990's
Dina Locher the Queen Mother lived to be 101 (almost 102) at the time she was the longest living member of RF.
@@Pamelasuerulz Lol 😂
@@dinalocher6560 The Queen Mother did not "step down". When her husband died, she automatically became Not the Queen, a Dowager Queen. There was absolutely no choice in the matter.
The last two comments made in the video really captured the essence of the two sisters and their impact on society. Really enjoyed this documentary!
Prince Phillip brought Handsomeness in the family...he was really good looking.
Hello. How are you doing?
@@wilsonwalker1181 am fine...how are you Sir?Hope you're okay.
@@humanity9158 I’m doing great. Nice meeting you here
Nice meeting you too...one Global Village.
@@humanity9158 I’m from Washington DC but lives in Houston Texas. What about you??
It's interesting to think about the laws / policies back in the day that governed the royal family - if Queen Elizabeth had a younger brother instead of a younger sister, the younger brother would've been given the throne / became king instead of Elizabeth all because he was a male.
They changed that just before birth of new royal child.
Queen mary, and then queen Elizabeth 1; children who became queen because no male heirs, btw, meghan is almost 40, can we dispense with poor young meghan, margaret didn’t marry townsend because in the end she didn’t want to lose hrh status, Harry will miss his military honors and his hrh title
Margaret’s life consisted of extreme wealth and luxury, partying, drinking, smoking, sleeping all day, holidays in warm climates and having Children that other people raised. No wonder she was a troubled person. I personally am glad she was not born first, her sister have the strength and discipline to be a great Queen, she is still sitting on the throne and people love her.
Agreeeeeeeeed
One had more fun. So what? RF should have educated both girls well, not just the first born. Like she wasn't worthy enough?
@@jolenejones6243 yeh, I’m sure her children thought it was super fun having a mother traveling for long times to an Island in the Caribbean to party and live like a spoiled brat for not getting her way, feeling sorry for herself . Leaving them behind in England. I agree, the old royal way of bringing up children was messed up, but, on the other hand, she wanted the privileged life and could have said goodbye to her titles and live a normal life. But she loved the money she got for not doing shit compared to others in the royal family, she wanted the privileged lifestyle. So personally I have no sympathy.
@@aquajuwel7098 dang you’re cold
@@jolenejones6243 like smart William and dumb Harry both had the same opportunities. William was born with brains , Harry not so much even as a child he had that halfwit face and crazy eyes.
0:17 one, reserved and proper (shows princess margaret)
0:20 the other, lively and controversial (shows princess margaret again)
The queen has been such a rock she
has such stamina and perserverance.
Prince Philip was really attractive! Glad his grandsons inherited that😅
Yeah nature took a smoking break on Charles...unfortunately.
This world is so weird. Why does looks matter? Lol.
@@pussydestroyer69285 Thank you. This kind of comments are so tidious
King George was a looker too!
I think they also inherited it from Diana and Mark Phillips. Princess Anne’s first husband was said to be attractive.
The commentators are utterly, charmingly, brilliantly bonkers. I'd love to have tea with any of them.
The weirdest three people to ever be assembled...
Indeed witches and warlocks we all together
Right-o
i have always admired Princess Margaret, she was absolutely gorgeous.
16:09 it’s so weird and satisfying seeing them so young running around like that
Margret was truly a beautiful stunning girl
One a 9, the other an 11.
One doesn’t get COPD from an old injury. The King didn’t die bc he was thrown from his horse. That’s rubbish. Elizabeth’s father had lung disease as a result of his chain smoking. Why obscure the truth? The danger of tobacco wasn’t known back then so it’s not like it’s a stain on his character.
I think the one they were referring to was Elizabeth's grandfather, not her father. Both were styled as King George.
My gosh. I can't even imagine how hard it must have been for the coffin of her sister to drive by and she have to stand stall and keep her emotions in check because of who she is. I'd be balling.
My grandparents won a trip to England, so they flew from San Francisco and saw the coronation. Must have been a sight!
Hello Lisa Whatcott. How are you doing?
If anyone seen Crown everyone they.picked for roles are near perfect matches
I just started watching it today, I love seeing how they matched all
The characters
I know!!! I wonder how they were able to find near perfect picks....Peter Townsend is a perfect match
@@mlokole254 Hello. How are you doing?
Margaret has beautiful eyes!
Hello how are you doing today?
I have never understood the whole scandal around Wallis Simpson being a divorcee. Wasn’t the whole reason the Church Of England was established was so Henry VIII could grant himself a divorce whenever he wanted?
Yes, but that was 400 years ago. The Church and the Crown re-modeled themselves as having wholesome, family values since Queen Victoria.
@@sherrydrake9578 the words wholesome family values and the royal family should never be used together
@@selinayue5208 henry was a serial killer!!!* poor women.🙏
What is so important who's the prettiest?! Beauty is only a deep skin!! Pure hearts count!! 😍😍😍😂
Totally agree!!
I don’t think people’s comment about Margaritas beauty does not. Diminish Elizabeth at all.
hello how you doing ?💙💙💙
I started to watch The Crown and I have made it to season two. I am not too sure if I’ll change my mind but I just felt horrible for BOTH sisters. As a sibling I could never imagine denying my such a request but I have not the slightest idea what it’s like to LITERALLY carry a nation on my back.
Its such a great show, I'm hooked, i just bingewatched the last season. Sooo good!
Duty comes before feelings
The Crown is fiction, not based on facts.
Calls have been made for Netfix to have a disclaimer at the start of each episode. Especially in recent episode where King Charles was supposed to have plotted with the Prime Minister John Major to get the Queen to abdicate. John Major has spoken against this shameful behaviour and Dame Judy said that much as she supports freedom of expression, Netflix should have a disclaimer that the series is based on fiction.
Netflix has so far resisted
For some reason I feel like when she get older princess Charlotte will have some of Princess Margaret personality.
Yup
Really? I alway felt she may be like princess anne.
@@juliancain3872 Hello. How are you doing?
ua-cam.com/video/DpJS_thWOfk/v-deo.html
no she gives off princess Anne energy
I'm just saying it's called 'A Heir and A Spare' for a reason, they should of had some sort of plan for if it ever happened.
Maybe I just read too much history, but the phrase was create to reflect something 😬
This woman became the official Queen in 1953, a year before my Grandmother was born.
My grandma died in 2020 and Elizabeth is still Queen, Elizabeth deserves to know that.
Her mother lived for 100 years so may she. But I feel for you my grandparents were younger than her but died in their early 70's. Her children and grandchildren are the luckiest people. Imagine being +71 and your mother is still alive.
I think it is just so natural that siblings have different personalities. For the second and the third child, there is always a example with whom they are always compared to. Sometimes it can be pleasant and sometimes not.
The queen never had a chance to enjoy her life growing up she had to give up everything for the crown even at a young age.
hello how you doing friend ?💙💙💙
She was very well trained and prepared to take on the royal duties as Queen. Thought of her as highly intelligent and athletic.
Everyday I fall more and more in love with HRH, Prince Phillip.
He walked Princess Margaret down aisle❣️
Same
Apparently he didn't approve of the relationship. But the Queen and her mother didn't want to hear about it
When I hit puberty, I looked like a freaking scarecrow, and these princesses looked the same as ever
I'm sure you look better
@@idontgiveafaboutyou 😊

@@nadiaazlin5676 she is indeed..

She was beautiful even to the end of her life. Her face always looked so sad though.

@@anneethe6576 Hello. How are you doing?
So the Church of England in part broke from Roman Catholicism so Henry VIII could divorce & remarry instead of killing his wives - but divorce isn't allowed? Ahhhh, the absolute HYPOCRISY 😂 😂 of man's religions! Princess Margaret was very stunning, btw
Well stated!
I'm Roman Catholic!!! My family is from northern Ireland!!! The whole Catholic, Protestant crap is freaking ridiculous AF!!!! People losing their lives over religion!!! What a joke
The Church of England wasn't established in order to make divorce easy. It was not a divorce that Henry sought in the case of Catherine of Aragon, but an annulment, as Henry claimed that the marriage had failed to produce a male heir because of God's displeasure at him marrying his brother's wife. Of course this is all a lot of pretext for a man who simply wanted a younger and hopefully more fertile woman, but it still remains true that a divorce was just about impossible to procure within the Church of England, even for royalty, until modern times.
Divorce is unchristian! God forbid! (Executiung your own wife - not so much.)
@@Vesnicie he requested an annulment but Queen Katherine refused. Then he went to the Pope and asked for a divorce. The Pope said no so.....
margaret was so beautiful... being stress free really does help keep you youtuhful looking.
