How a Princess became Queen

The day the Princess of Wales became Queen Elizabeth II

by British Heritage Travel, March 31, 2023

As the longest-serving monarch, Queen Elizabeth II has died we now look back on the incredible history and when she was bestowed the mantle of Queen.

When King George VI died in 1952, the then [Princess Elizabeth] and her husband were the last to find out as they were in Kenya at the time. Speaking recently Philip's cousin Pamela Hicks, daughter of the late Lord Mountbatten, who was also in Kenya working as a lady-in-waiting, has revealed that Philip was told first and then shared the news with his wife.

Speaking on her daughter India Hicks' podcast in 2018, Lady Pamela recalled how the Queen had been staying at the remote Treetops guest lodge in Kenya, which was accessed via a ladder.

She said: "She goes up as a princess. The King dies that night. She comes down the ladder as Queen. We were the last people in the world to hear."

A message had been sent by the British embassy but as it had been written in code it wasn't passed on. Instead, the Queen's private secretary, Martin Charteris, was in a nearby town when a reporter accosted him and asked about the news.

Charteris returned to the lodge and subtly climbed the ladder trying to get Philip's attention while not disturbing the Queen.

Lady Pamela said: "Prince Philip is sitting, reading a newspaper, while the princess is in another part of room, at the desk, writing to her father.

"[Martin] crawls in as he doesn't want the princess to look up and see him so he's crawling out of her sightline and gesturing to get hold of the radio.

"He secretly turns it very, very low and hears all the stations (playing) the same dirge-like music, being very solemn, so it's obviously true."

Mr. Parker secretly got the Duke to listen to the radio to hear the news for himself.

Lady Pamela continued: ”Philip just takes the newspaper and covers his face with it, hides behind it and says: 'This will be such a shock!’”

She said the Duke convinced his wife to go for a walk in the garden, where he told her of her father's death and that she was now Queen.

Lady Pamela added: "As she comes into the room. I think 'Oh, poor girl, her father's died'.

“So I go over to her, give her a hug and think 'Oh my God, it's the Queen’, so I go into a deep curtsey.

"And she says 'I'm so sorry. It means we've all got to go back’. She was only thinking of all of us."

The podcast also said Lady Hicks reveal that when the royal party returned to London a black dress had to be smuggled onto the plane so the Queen could change before disembarking as she hadn't thought to bring one. An oversight that changed how the monarchy travel, as they now all bring a black mourning outfit.

Daughter of Empire: My Life as a Mountbatten by Lady Pamela Hicks #RoyalFamily #BookReview

The #AudiblePlus catalog had several books on the #royalfamily included with membership, so I am making my way through them. #DaughterofEmpire #MyLifeasaMountbatten is about #PrincePhilip's cousin, #LadyPAmelaHicks #LouisMountbatten #memoir #audiobook

Few families can boast of not one but two saints among their ancestors, a great-aunt who was the last tsarina of Russia, a father who was Grace Kelly’s pinup, and a grandmother who was not only a princess but could also argue the finer points of naval law. Pamela Mountbatten entered a remarkable family when she was born at the very end of the Roaring Twenties. As the younger daughter of the…

“I was surprised to find out how many connections the Vanderbilt family had to royalty. Gloria Morgan Vanderbilt apparently had a lesbian relationship with Nadejda Mountbatten, Marchioness of Milford Haven and was engaged to Gottfried, Prince of Hohenlohe-Langenburg, a great-grandson of Queen Victoria and of Tsar Alexander II. Her sister Thelma Furness, Viscountess Furness was the mistress of Edward VIII and was the person to introduce him to Wallis Simpson. Grace Vanderbilt was the guardian of Lady Pamela Hicks when she was shipped off to New York and the Mounbattens became very close to family. Consuelo Vanderbilt was proposed to by Prince Francis Joseph of Battenberg (who was the brother of Prince Henry Battenberg, who married Princess Beatrice, a daughter of Queen Victoria) but she turned him down. No wonder Prince Harry did an interview with Anderson Cooper 😅. I’m sure there’s many more connections but I just find that all so fascinating.” - Submitted by Anonymous

Richard Eden is saying the guest list is only 1,000 people. I had thought it was 2,500. I surprisingly agree with a lot of the comments in this. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11990793/Lady-Pamela-Hicks-not-invited-King-Charless-coronation.html

most sources say around 2000-2500 so I’ll go with that over the girly going ‘subscribe to my Substrack for stories about my mum and Princess Elizabeth’ lol

also I’d rather see members of the public there than the aristocracy and there’s something very hilarious about the massive breakdowns so many of them seem to be having behind the scenes.

[snifflesthemouse]

It's making sense now... I see now what I am missing. This whole time I have been looking at the dastardly duo everyone loves to loathe.

I got so wrapped up in what they were doing that I forgot an important rule... the people at the top always know way more than they let on. We get the bare minimum of the need-to-know stuff.

Plus, I forgot the Golden Rule of critical thinking... Occam's Razor states the most simple reason is the most likely reason.

Sometimes, we miss the truth in front of our faces because we forget the lens we are looking through skews things. When we always look at things the same way, we miss things we'd otherwise see.

Let me give you an example non BRF related... I stayed with an abusive murderer for six years too long (ions ago, as my life has been on track and a blessing for almost a decade now, we do recover). WHY?

Because I was too busy looking at things with my own feelings, personality, and opinions. You MUST learn to think objectively if you desire to see truth. Truth is not relative to the observer. Truth is truth. And, the truth doesn't change with the interviewer or the day of the week.

Instead of seeing lie after lie, I would make excuses for him based on how I perceived things. I would make judgments based on how things made me feel or how I could save someone even. SPOILER ALERT: You cannot save anyone from anything without them first wanting to be saved from themselves.

Instead, I should've pulled myself back and looked at things with objective perspective. I should've put myself in his mindframe. I should've looked at things from the lens of the murdering con artist.

This author has been looking at things from a witnessing perspective. Not in the mindframe of the true decision makers.

Harry and Meghan seem to always find a way to not only stay relevant as horrible people, but also have entire flocks of people charged with wearing away at people who criticize them until they abandon ship. (i.e. Mia Farrow) There seems to be only two extremes these days where people either worship or loathe them. Where is the healthy middle?

So... going back to the link I shared... why is King Charles III leaving all these people out of the Coronation and offending the aristocracy? He's already upset the Church, as well as alienate a whole nation with a photograph.

I'm sorry, but I want my energy to match. If I can sit and scrutinize one member of the BRF... is it not ONLY FAIR to use that same level of scrutiny and interest on all others? That's the problem with blindly supporting things or people. We lose sight of our standards when the faith is completely blind.

I need to chew on this some more... Charles has suggested when he became King he would set aside his own personality and uphold everything his mother upheld.

But, it seems so odd that BP could possibly "forget" an invitation. Make it make sense to me.

Dukes, ladies, etc being left off of the invite list... Meghan and Harry (W/O kids) are part of the souvenier olive tree book... well I guess in all those private visits during the Funeral and Platinum parties there was never a time for a grandpa to get a decent picture with his grandkids to use?

I guess nobody wanted a group picture?

Maybe I need to read Spare or that Robert Johnson book and look for more clues. Maybe reading Harry's own ghost-writer's words will give some insight...

PLEASE remember that there is no such thing as a good or bad person. People are just people, and they all have the capability to be equally horrible and honorable. As a famous author once said, "Even Hitler loved dogs"

FINAL NOTE: Real recognizes real. That is a prison/street saying that means creatures of the same species can always find their own kind. Please remember I am not the one to judge anyone. The only reason I can point out things others fail to mention is because I used to be a pretty terrible person. Great con, terrible person. I had to lose everything and then some, then work harder than hard to rebuild. I can spot a me a mile away, people.

Unless you've been to prison or dated the dumpster fire of burning dog turds I have, you probably see things in a less cynical light. I've been counseling, teaching, and exposing people for over half a decade. Before I turned my life around, though, I was a horrible person.

I know people. I know the worst of the worst kind of people. I survived being stabbed and beaten and so much more because I am good at knowing how these outlier personalities operate.

Don't take my words for gospel. Don't be so weak minded you just nod and accept everything someone peddles as truth, either. We have to stop and think.

So... what's really good?

[philibetexcerpts]

I felt bad knowing Pamela Hicks is not invited to the Coronation. It would have been nice to see her attend the THIRD Coronation of her lifetime.

Your feelings are valid. However, Lady Pamela was said to be fine with not being invited to the Coronation, which is only wise considering her health condition and the point of cutting back the guests.

It would’ve been nice to see her there for sure, but the fact that she’s lived under the reign of five monarchs is already iconic imo

Lady Pamela Mountbatten & David Hicks

[emmashouldbewriting]

🤣🤣🤣 well the artist who made the figures absolutely nailed Harry’s trademark scowl, not entirely sure the less than svelt black outfit with the mittens rather than claw that Meghan is sporting is as flattering . But it looks like Charles is married to the queens bridesmaid Lady Pamela Hicks, rather than Camilla.

This is true, and Meghan's look of pained disgust is pretty spot on.

It really does look nothing like Camilla, although bless him, that might be a good thing lol
