Celebrating a Century of Service

As a mark of respect following her death, both houses of parliament suspended business as MPs observed a minute's silence. The flag atop Buckingham Palace was lowered to half-mast, while thousands of people visited Kensington Palace, Princes William and Harry's official residence, to sign books of condolence. In Canada, flags were flown at half-mast on federal buildings in honour of Diana. A wreath was laid by Governor General Romeo LeBlanc on behalf of all Canadians. Further tributes occurred throughout Australia and New Zealand.

In London, crowds gathered outside Buckingham Palace during much of August, with over one million bouquets being left by members of the public; these were later donated to charities for use in memorials across Britain. Numerous memorials have been held around the world since her death; these include a concert held at Wembley Stadium within days of her funeral which was attended by Princess Margaret (who had not attended her sister's funeral) and representatives from most European royal houses.

She was just 36 years old at the time of her death, leaving behind two young sons, Princes William and Harry.

As part of her jubilee celebrations earlier today, Queen Elizabeth II hosted a reception at Buckingham Palace where royals gathered to celebrate 60 years on the throne for Her Majesty...

Britain has come together to celebrate Queen Elizabeth II as she nears her 70th year on throne. More than 2,000 members of royal family and foreign royals are gathering at Buckingham Palace for a black-tie dinner in honor of a woman who has been an unwavering part of British culture since she was a princess herself. The gala will be followed by a concert that will feature One Direction, Elton John, James Blunt, Liam Payne, Emeli Sande and others. Earlier today (May 19), Parliament celebrated Elizabeth’s reign with a stunning prayer, or poem, written by Carol Ann Duffy.

The Enduring Appeal of Princess Diana

The public fascination with Princess Diana hasn’t died down—if anything, it’s been reignited. After all, it was only a couple of months ago that we saw an outpouring of support for both Kate Middleton’s pregnancy and her sister Pippa’s wedding. The late princess is remembered not just as a mother to Princes William and Harry, but also as a philanthropist who used her name to benefit worthy causes around the world. It makes sense that royal watchers would be particularly interested in seeing how her son has turned out—or met his bride-to-be at least.
