KATE, Duchess of Cambridge, and Prince William will virtually stand by the Queen on Sunday, when they will take part alongside other senior royals in a special celebration of Commonwealth Day.
THE QUEEN is very acutely aware that the Royal Family cannot play the celebrity circus game without risking the future of the monarchy, Piers Morgan has claimed.
THE QUEEN s huge soft spot for Prince Andrew did not work to his benefit when the Duke of York tried to convince his mother to back him on a decision about Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie.
Queen Elizabeth II has also opted to wear the piece to mark a number of special events.
She wore the brooch in portraits released to mark her 50th birthday, and at the funeral of Lord Mountbatten in 1979.
The Queen is thought to have nearly 100 brooches in her extensive collection.
The royal is rarely seen in public without a historical brooch pinned to her outfit.
The royal line of succession - who outranks who?
The line of succession to the British throne dictates the order in which each member of the Royal Family would ascend to the throne.
It is also seen as a ranking of importance with the head of the line, the Queen, taking the place of ruler.
THE QUEEN s vision for the shape of the new Royal Family has already been overshadowed by former working royals Meghan Markle and Prince Harry as watchers warn it will not be half as exciting without the couple.
