A new book has provided insight into Queen Elizabeth<\/a> and Prince Philip\u2019s<\/a> marriage in the later years of their life. Writing in the new biography, titled Queen Elizabeth II, Hugo Vickers suggested that the pair had \u201ceffectively separated.\u201d<\/p>\n

In biographer Hugo\u2019s new book, he uses insider accounts to paint a picture of the Queen\u2019s life behind closed doors<\/a>. In particular, he details her marriage and how this changed once Philip stepped back from public duties in 2017.<\/p>\n

After doing so, Philip moved to Wood Farm on the Sandringham Estate, while the Queen remained primarily at Buckingham Palace<\/a> and later Windsor Castle to carry out her duties. This physical distance meant the once-close pair lived pretty separate lives for many years \u2026 but that didn\u2019t dampen the love they shared.<\/p>\n

\u201cTheir lives had become increasingly independent even while their bond remained intact,\u201d an insider told Radar Online<\/a> of this time period. \u201cIt was not a formal split, but more a reflection of how they chose to live in later life.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThere has long been an understanding within royal circles that their relationship evolved into something more distant in practical terms, even if emotionally they remained connected,\u201d another source agreed.<\/p>\n

The couple\u2019s separation \u2013 for lack of a better word \u2013\u00a0didn\u2019t last long, however. They were reunited during the COVID-19 pandemic when they entered isolation together at Windsor, forming HMS Bubble.<\/p>\n

Just over a year into the pandemic, in April 2021, Philip passed away<\/a>. And, the Queen wasn\u2019t too far behind him. She made it through her Platinum Jubilee<\/a> the following year, but died in September 2022. Her Majesty\u2019s death certificate lists \u201cold age\u201d as the sole cause of her passing. But who\u2019s to say she didn\u2019t die of a broken heart after Philip left?<\/p>\n
