A letter from Elizabeth to one of her aides recently resurfaced, revealing the Queen's personal feelings about Diana's passing. “It was indeed dreadfully sad, and she is a huge loss to the country.
Where did Elizabeth I die? Elizabeth I died in Richmond Palace. At the time of her death she was reported to have a full inch of makeup on her face. Her rumoured last words were: “All my possessions for one moment of time.”
Late Queen at Diana's funeral
Respecting the feelings that the public had for Diana, Queen Elizabeth walked out of the palace with her husband Prince Philip and saw the flowers and messages that people left outside the palace.
Public reaction in Britain to Camilla's decision not to attend today's service has been largely positive, if caustic at times. "I couldn't be happier if I'd won the lottery," Joan Berry, secretary of the Diana Appreciation Society told newspaper The Telegraph.
The queen stood with her family, and as Diana's funeral cortege passed by, she bowed her head. It was not a quick bow, nor a shallow one. The woman accustomed to being bowed by the world now lowered her head and humbly honored the princess.
"Mother Love" is a song by Queen, from the album Made in Heaven, released in 1995 after Freddie Mercury's death in 1991. It was written by Mercury and Brian May. Mercury recorded two out of three verses before becoming too sickly to continue recording, so May recorded the final verse himself later.
“I cannot lead you into battle, I do not give you laws or administer justice but I can do something else, I can give you my heart and my devotion to these old islands and to all the peoples of our brotherhood of nations.”

Queen Elizabeth II passed away on September 8 had an uneasy relationship with daughter-in-law Princess Diana. According to the reports, the association had many ups and downs, primarily because of the Queen's son Prince Charles' alleged extramarital affairs.
"One of the most shocking things that Diana told me was that the night before the wedding, Charles told her that he didn't love her," Thornton said. "I think Charles didn't want to go into the wedding on a false premise. He wanted to square it with her, and it was devastating for Diana."
According to Seward in The Queen & Di, although Elizabeth was initially sympathetic to Diana, eventually the stoic monarch felt that the emotional Princess was simply too much to handle.
“Bohemian Rhapsody” was first made for Queen's 1975 album, A Night at the Opera. Written by Freddie Mercury, the song is Queen's greatest hit to date. It officially became the most streamed song in December of 2018, having been downloaded or streamed almost 2 billion times.
However, Freddy was never ready to get his teeth fixed. Although he could certainly afford it later in his career, Freddie Mercury refused to correct his alignment issue because he believed it contributed to his incredible range. He feared that changing his teeth would negatively affect his singing ability.
"When life seems hard, the courageous do not lie down and accept defeat; instead, they are all the more determined to struggle for a better future."

The song is one of Queen's heaviest works. The guitar riff and Taylor's drumming give it a very "thrash" sound.

If you watch the footage, Princess Margaret was not the only person who didn't bow her head as the coffin passed. There was nothing significant in that. That the one person in the UK who does not need to bow to anyone DID, WAS significant.
"Without William, Kate would curtsy to Camilla; with him, she would not," the source continued. "That's unless Prince Charles is present, in which case she would." The order of curtsying, however, can change. This could happen when people marry into the family.
They did this to avoid the nearly thirty photographers waiting in front of the hotel. Diana and Fayed were the rear passengers; Trevor Rees-Jones, a member of the Fayed family's personal protection team, was in the (right) front passenger seat. None of the occupants were wearing seat belts.
Bohemian Rhapsody
As a result, it is one of the longest-reigning Number 1 hits of all-time. As well as being Queen's best seller, it's also one of the UK's biggest singles of all time, with 2.6 million pure sales.
