My dears, watch the top 5 shocking scenes of "The Crown" Season 1 to see Queen Elizabeth's struggles, HERE: ua-cam.com/video/uVqgoxwugGc/v-deo.html
I firmly believe the reason that Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother lived along as she did was so she could outlive "that woman". Which she did by 15 years
I think it is more about being self-obsessed, never actually working and being well cared for. Ez long life. At least the show version. She was always nasty.
That’s the most pathetic thing I’ve ever heard.
I think your conclusion is far more logical than living long out of spite.@@LayllasLocker
I had an Uncle who's parent's were divorced and hated each other to the point that on the rare occasions that they did see each other, both would swear that they would outlive the other so they could dance on the other's grave. Both almost made it to 100 before he died first. Sadly she was so physically and mentally deteriorated by this time she was unable to do any dancing.
Another Uncle of mine used to call them a prime example of hate being one hell of a motivator. 😅
That’s not a good thing! That woman was his wife hate it or love it. Phillip cheated and so did Charles! The mother came from
Nothing and became dead inside forever.
That actor is SO good because he can be play polite, respectful, and seething with unexpressed resentment all at the same time.
1:29. In this family your never sure when you were in, but you know exactly when your out
Wallis Simpson was not the only reason for the abdication, King Edward was too close to German authorities during pre war.
No that came later. It was all about the Head of the Church of England not being able to marry a Divorcee. The Germans treated him in exile with the protocols of a reigning monarch and being vain, foolish and stupid he loved them for it.
@@mikegalvin9801he was pro German before that. There had been tensions between Germany and the rest of Europe whilst his father was still on the throne and Edward would have known that since King George V gave him access to state papers to prepare him for his ascension, he abdicated his throne then went straight to Germany to negotiate getting it back so he could have Wallis as his Queen. He was a spoilt, selfish, treacherous parasite had he been anyone else he would have been tried for treason and back then it carried the death sentence. Instead he was exiled to France and lived in luxury provided by the brother he would have happily de-throned and who took on HIS responsibility and the stressed killed him. Edward spent his life entertaining his wealthy friends and partying his way through life
He was a Nazi sympathizer. It only came out later on.
There’s a documentary here on UA-cam that details the plot by the Archbishop of Canterbury’s involvement in the abdication. Wallis was, of course, one of the reasons, but Edward wasn’t very religious and more than willing to break traditions. The Archbishop considered him a threat to his power and decided he had to go.
@@wickedwitchoftheeast88 Long ago I had a boyfriend who had a grandmother who was very much a Grande Dame of San Francisco society. She recounted how wildly popular the dashing Edward was when he first came to town and it was exactly like that song "I danced with a man who danced with a girl who danced with the Prince of Wales." Later when the Windsors first came to America just before the war the A list hostesses all competed to "Get" them and they were deluged with invitations to the best country houses from Pebble to Tahoe. Still later after a trail of untipped servants, outrageous overseas phone bills etc they were reduced to mooching off the C list. Dreadful people.
Theres a certain irony that once upon a time the Queen Mother fancied Edward. I have to agree that she certainly dodged a bullet w him
I remember reading that the Queen Mother turned down Prince Edward. She didnt want to be a Queen. She wanted a quieter life
Lol! That never happened. They disliked each other. Even when the future Queen Mother was not yet married to the future George VI.
Interesting. Though you're probably right, she'd end up have been Queen if she did succeed and I recall hearing that wasn't what she wanted then. Not that it mattered in the end
@@sanjuktachatterjee6807she did pursue him, only when Queen Mary told her off did she accept George's courting
@@mjbaricua7403 Where did you get this piece of information? When from contemporary letters of members of British aristocracy it is understood that nobody wanted their daughter to get married to Edward. Because of his habit of being indiscreet in his personal life. Even when the other person was married/engaged. Queen Mary wanted Elizabeth Bowes Lyon for her Bertie from the beginning but she was infatuated with somebody else. Only when that person didn't return her feelings, did she accept Bertie's courtship.
Should be known, when he abdicated he actually took a number of state owned objects with him.
Such as the crown of the Prince of Wales.
It's unknown if he ever tried to sell it but it was returned to the UK after his death
I didn’t know this! I wonder what else he took?
@@ryanking9954 there were some priceless emeralds he gave to Wallis that were reset so they couldn't be claimed by the royal family. I can't remember where I read that though.
@@markc-ru4qz Her engagement ring, I am sure. Crown jewels are still disappearing, and they belong to the British crown are considered on loan for life to members of the royal family. So, in essence, they are stealing or else some of their trusted servants are stealing. A couple of things the current Princess of Wales had have disappeared. I honestly don't think she would be that naive. Someone needs to look at the servants. by now though, as you said, it would be unrecognizable reset into multiple smaller pieces.
@@peachygal4153 I think he bought her engagement ring outright but I'm not sure.
We, across the Pond, have had a similar theft problem in more recent years. Britain had the Duke of Windsor & we have (still, much to my frustration) our very own Grifter, #Dolt45.
Duke of Windsor did one good thing, abdication.
"Oozing charm from every pore, he oiled his way across the floor". (Line from My Fair Lady).
I loved King Edward's character on The Crown Alex Jennings is an incredible actor.
I'm new to the Crown. I recently finished season 1 and I'm making my way through 2 right now. I've been very much drawn to the storyline of Edward and Elizabeth. I think its the intertwining of family, faith, and duty and how both Edward and Elizabeth navigate those ideals that's been the most fascinating for me. I'm amazed at how well Claire Foy captures the turmoil of balancing her duty as the sovereign and her Christian desire for forgiveness when it comes to Edward.
He tried to have their family killed during ww2 so that he could turn the UK into Nazi rump state, and take the crown back. The Queen Mother was right to hate him. He reportedly spoke positive of Hitler when he met Nixon in the 70's. He is not a good dude. His ouster because of Wallis was just an convient solution.
I'm new to the Crown too, and let's say, I'm not a person who cries easily, since childhood. This series (I'm almost finished) has made me cry more than I did in my entire life. Without being a "drama queen". Pun not intended.
It was easier to forgive him because at that point she did not know of his betrayal of her father at the start of the war.
Following up on this story with some research out of curiosity due to The Crown, I was shocked and appalled by what Edward did.
My darling dearest Peaches😂😂😂😂 Edward letters to Wallis had me rolling
This series continues to amaze -- it is superbly written and acted.
Don’t tell me that the queen mother saw being a queen a burden. She loved every minute of it. Her biggest disappointment was her daughter becoming Queen She couldn’t stand it and she couldn’t stop thinking she had no control. Couldn’t STAND the woman.
"I'm not a nice person."
~Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother 👑
TBH Queen Elizabeth was a chip off the old block. She may have appeared lovely and fluffy in public but there was a heart of stone and ice running through those veins. No empathy for those less fortunate and far too greedy for her own good.
She revelled in it, I'm sure. I read that, once a widow, she wouldn't leave Buckingham Palace and the only way to get her out was to switch off the heating.
@@piplebref4607 😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
She was also a complete and total drunk.
The King smoked a billion ciggies a day. That's what killed him!
just wow!!! I love The Crown!!!
The queen mother certainly was bitter toward her brother in law and his wife so much that she denied wallis the right to having the HRH title
She was bitter for sure! Elizabeth, queen mother, all of them shut him out but when Charles wanted to marry a divorcee, they allowed it. Camilla was the reason Charles & Diana split. That family is toxic AF & one day they will be judged for not forgiving. How hateful they treated Edward and Wallace til the day they died. It’s disgusting. They’re cold as ice!❄️🥶🥶
Matthew 7:1-3
Judge not, that ye be not judged.
Yeah that's what happens when you're a nazi
Not only the queen mother Elizabeth but also the queen Mother Mary and almost all royals in Europe. Simpson was a commoner and divorcee.
And quite right too. We don't want a nazi to have an HRH.
@@andrearoces8597Funny. Liz2's kids are nearly all divorced & all are terribly common.
Nice keep up the crown videos. My favorite scenes.
Yeah, becoming king killed George VI and not smoking cigarettes for decades. Then Edward VII was hated for walking away from the royal family, today Harry is beloved for doing the same.
Prince Harry never consorted with Nazi’s. Nor has he tried to take his brother’s place in line. Edward wanted to to allow the Nazi’s to oust his brother.
Harry just asked his brother to befriend and treat his wife like a family member and friend.
Harry has done a lot of good I. The world. William has just lived off his position.
He didn't walk away from the Royal family they basically forced him into exile. I am sure the Duke of Windsor would have been perfectly content to live out his days with Wallis in one of the royal residences in Britain but George VI wanted him out of the country. When the Nazis occupied France they still would not let him come back to Britain they made him the Governor of the Bahamas.
did they purposely make Q Elizabeth have a halo and K Edward have horns in the first scene or am I too high
It was a family matter and not a public matter. I think the same can be applied today.
Wrong. It was very much a public matter. Had Edward become king the UK would have capitulated to Hitler and we'd all be speaking German and eating sauerkraut und bratwurst. Considering how much the royals suck on the public teat financially its very much a matter for the rest of us. We own them not the other way round
Reminds me of prince Harry.
He certainly knows he is out.
Hope Harry be happy with his wife, and if he couldnt be the prince every body wanted, then be the father his Kids deserve. He is a good person.
He was never IN.
@@NotMykl He was the most popular and loved member of the royal family after his mother Diana. And before he Married that person. People still feel sorry for him and have a soft corner, even though he betrayed his family and country.
@@mrp5764lmao 😂betrayed his family and country? Yall are so unserious, stop bootlicking the Royal parasites
@@emiliocovarrubias5640 Harry is a good person. He has done nothing wrong. But the haters are jealous of him because he is better looking than William and Charles.
🙄Yes, but you loved so much being Queen Consort. And your daughter became QUEEN ELIZABETH II
and she domineered her daughter too. she seemed to think she was the queen not queen mother.
@@peachygal4153 Exactly. More than once she walked in front of her , but honestly I also think Queen Elizabeth wanted and needed and respected her mother so much...so, she let it go
Cookie
"That Jezebel divorcee". Sort of like Charlie and CowMilla.
And M,H as well, he married a divorced woman.
@@eggy4152 Meghan is not a jezebel.
@@SymphonyBrahms
Megsie a Jezebel? Naw!
She's just a pay as you
go Yacht girl
Given that Charles and Camilla
have been very devoted to each
other for many decades, she
do not qualify as a Jezebel
Wallis Simpson certainly qualified
as a Jezebel divorcee! What with
her pimp husband, her Nazi lovers
and her kinky Jet set friends.
Wallis, Duchess of Windsor, must be having the last laugh over the new Queen Consort.
The biggest lie ever told in history.
The “stress of becoming King” after his brothers abdication killed George VI.
False, it was the cigarettes.
Its clear that Queen Mary wanted Elizabeth Bowes Lyons to Marry David... who was next in line... She turned down an offer from his younger brother...On the advice of Queen Mary who was sure she could persuade The Prince of Wales to ask for her hand...
He said "Regardless of her being your Choice Mother...He never would Marry her" ...and tellingly said... " If you want Elizabeth Bowels Lyons as the next Queen of England... Your trying to marry her off to the wrong Son ! The Prince of Wales Knew ...His brother was interested in her and that she had refused him...His Brother asked her a second time. Then... The Old Queen suggest she accept.... Telling !!!
What's with the random capitalized words?
Wasnt he the queens uncle?
Yes. He is the former King.
The actress playing Margaret is too tall Meg was shorter than Elizabeth!
That is correct later when they have different actresses for Elizabeth and Margaret. The actress for young Margaret is perfectly fine.
You can't expect them to get all the details correct. Vanessa Kirby did a great job portraying young Princess Margaret, but she looks nothing like her. Claire Foy also did a great job portraying young Queen Elizabeth II. She even won two Emmys for it. She looks nothing like her either.
@@magicmonkey1645 Queen Mary reportedly said to Meg once: "WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO GROW??"LMFAO! 👑
The actor playing the Duke of Windsor was quite tall unlike the actual "little man."
Her daughter would have been queen anyway.
Is this going to be repeated with Edward's great, great nephew?
It already has Harry has basically been disowned by the Royal Family because. He put his family last, & money first so now he's out. He could have waked away quietly like his uncle Prince Edward (his fathers youngest brother) did. But he chose to air all his & the families dirty laundry out in the open.
If Harry had wanted to have a quite lifestyle away from the cameras. & formal court duties, then no one would have minded. It was the public interviews for money that basically. Caused him to by shunned by the family.
No.
He and his yacht girl are even worse. Lying, grifting phonies with no class.
Interesting that this scene that could be repeated today just with different royals. For George VI it could be the stress & cruelty metered out to his daughter in old age or even his grandson now battling serious illness? Makes you think the late PP was rather accurate in calling MM “DoW” doesn’t it!
What is DOW?
@@HowieHoward-ti3dx The Duchess of Windsor aka Wallis Simpson.
@@ianmacdonald9932 Ahh ok. Nobody would be able to guess your abbreviations.
@@HowieHoward-ti3dx The term isn’t mine (that’s the point) it was the term used/coined by the late P Philip about MM as published in a recent book. PP knew both women personally & wasn’t a fan of either it seems!
I love Harry and Meghan and believe that some people have been very cruel to them. And I wouldn't believe anything that Prince Philip said. he was a barnacle on the hull trying to get what he could. I dislike the man intensely. He was just as bad as the Duke of Windsor was. So to all the haters of Harry and Meghan I say, "Jump in the ocean and drown, you creeps. The deep, deep ocean".
🚬 smoking. Shameful.
