Queen Elizabeth II and her husband, Prince Philip were not overly affectionate towards each other.<\/p>\n
Her majesty who shares four children with the X Duke of Edinburgh did not believe in public display of affection with her husband.<\/p>\n
In book, The Queen: 70 Chaptersin the Life of Queen Elizabeth II, royal author Ian Lloyd shared: “When their relationship finally blossomed during the summer of 1946, the couple gave few clues away, even to those close to them.”<\/p>\n
Lloyd continued: \u201cPeter Ashmore, [Elizabeth’s father] The King’s equerry, recalled Philip’s three-week stay at Balmoral, when the couple came to what Philip called ‘an understanding.'”<\/p>\n
He revealed: “They certainly did not drool over each other…They scarcely held hands.”<\/p>\n
Lloyd shared: “It was hardly a surprise, since Philip had never been shown much affection from his parents.”<\/p>\n
The royal author explained: \u201c[Royal courtier] Mike Parker recalled trying to encourage Philip to show some kind of public affection to his wife. ‘He doesn’t wear his heart on his sleeve,’ Parker commented in a 1992 interview.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Queen Elizabeth II and her husband, Prince Philip were not overly affectionate towards each other.
