Hello Everyone!

While I’m currently going through a lot right now with my hours getting possibly changed at work next week, having the kids I work with back on campus next week (pray for me & my co-workers), I’m starting up my Fall 2020 college semester, & some other personal things, I’m not really creating content for any of my social media’s. I found this on Instagram & wanted to see what my followers would think! Let me know who you choose! I chose Palace 1 or 3!

I AM BACK!!!

Hello my lovelies! I’m so happy to announce that I am back from my Hiatus! My summer semester has finally ended, my job was extremely crazy when I first started back up but now it has slowed down, my family is doing well, & my life is finally feeling like it’s going back to normal!!!!! I’m so excited to keep working on this account! 

[livinglikebritishroyalty]

An Account Announcement

Hey y’all. I know I have been completely silent on this account. I have been slowly updating biographies of the family, retagging posts, & trying to organize my account. Also my personal life outside of social media, has been an up & down rollercoaster of emotions these past few months. With being back at my job, currently in the final few weeks of my 2nd summer college semester (I did a summer semester in 2019), slowly rebuilding bridges in relationships with friends & family, & just dealing with my mental health, I have been so freaking exhausted. I have been trying to catch up on my social media but there are times I need to pull away. I will keep working on this account to re-do it, organize it, & have it to where my account makes me super happy. It will be slow steps coming back so if you start noticing small changes, I’m here. Also I know there is a ton going on in the world & if ANYONE needs me, please know my message & question boxes are always open for support! I love y’all so freaking much! ~ Kendall

Do you know who that lady is to Williams left (my right) in your header picture? Cause I’ve never seen her before and I thought you might know 😊

Do you mean the right? To his left is his wife Her Royal Highness Catherine The Duchess of Cambridge but to William’s right is one of Lady Helen Taylor’s daughters. I’m not sure which twin it is, but the twin’s names are Eloise Olivia Katherine Taylor & Estella Olga Elizabeth Taylor. I hope this helped! 💕☺️

Account & Life Update

Hello lovelies! I’m finally back to Tumblr! I have been quite for a while on social media due a lot of personal things. I definitely plan to return but with a different outlook. Keep reading to find out what has been going on personally & for an account update! I missed my beautiful account and my followers so much! I hope everyone is staying safe, being productive & happy, & staying healthy! I’m so glad to be back!

𝒫𝑒𝓇𝓈𝑜𝓃𝒶𝓁 𝐿𝒾𝒻𝑒 𝒰𝓅𝒹𝒶𝓉𝑒

These past few months of 2020 have definitely been a lot for me! It’s been an up & down rollercoaster of emotions but I’m doing a lot better which means I finally feel like for once I am at peace with life & I’m so incredibly positive & happy lately. Here’s a little list of things I’ve been going through lately.

I finally finished up my Spring 2020 Semester which was so much fun & I absolutely loved the 2 courses I took. I took English Composition 2 & General Psychology this semester. I have to say the 2 women who were my professors were absolutely amazing despite the pandemic we are going through. My psychology professor especially deserves so much love & prayer right now as she sadly just lost her father to old age & Alzheimer’s & her mother just had a stroke a few days after losing her father. This semester has been difficult not only for my professors but for me & fellow classmates. I’m so proud of my classmates, my professors, and me for pushing through & working hard.

 I have sadly been not going to work due to Covid-19, as I work at a local charter school I attended in middle school (the school is pre-k through 8th & I attended 5th through 8th grade) so I’ve been missing my co-workers & my children a ton which doesn’t help my mental health most days. I did get to chat with my co-workers through Zoom Tuesday afternoon & they are doing quite well so it makes me happy to hear. We have no clue when the school will re-open so for now the school remains closed.

My younger brother & I are both going through breakup emotions. He just broke up with his girlfriend due to the relationship turning toxic & unhealthy. My boyfriend & I broke up due both of us needing to work on ourselves mentally, emotionally, & physically but we are still very good friends & we do plan to get back together hopefully in the future as he is an amazing man to have in my life.

I have not seen my family since Easter! With the social distancing my family has taken it seriously as most of my family is immune compromised so it has been difficult not to see them but I talk to them daily. We are all doing really well which is great despite everything going on.

𝒜𝒸𝒸𝑜𝓊𝓃𝓉 𝒰𝓅𝒹𝒶𝓉𝑒

There is going to be a HUGE account update!

Master Lists: I have organization in my account now! I have been trying to find a way to organize my account for so long & I finally found a way! I have 2 Master Lists so far but there will probably be more in the future! They are located below the bio of my account! I will also be redoing Hashtags on my account to make the organization of my account easier which also helps my followers find posts easier.

Editing: I will be editing most of my account’s posts! I have better, more creative, & more formal styles to make my posts look more professional. That will also come along with the new posts (those will not be until editing is done).

Suggestions: I am willing to take any suggestions my followers are willing to give! I love making my account my own but also want to here what y’all want to see on my account!

𝐵𝓁𝑜𝑔 𝒰𝓅𝒹𝒶𝓉𝑒𝓈

Hey y’all! So I’ve been hanging around Tumblr and looking at accounts. I think I’m going to take time to re-do some posts, make my page more organized & clean, and finish un-finished posts. I have a lot of time on my hands now that my current college semester is coming quickly to a close & I have about 1 or 2 weeks before the next semester begins. If things start to look weird on my page I’m just re-creating my account! I love y’all!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

𝒞𝓇𝑒𝒶𝓉𝒾𝑜𝓃 𝒴𝑒𝒶𝓇:

The oldest parts of this tiara are from the 1800′s. The Current Duke & Duchess created another Cambridge Sapphire Tiara called the Sapphire Button Tiara.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

𝒟𝑒𝓈𝒾𝑔𝓃:

The oldest parts of this tiara are from the 1800′s. The set included a Tiara, a Necklace, & a Stomacher (this could be separated into 3 different brooches). Her Majesty Queen Mary added to the rest of the set, which increased the flexibility of the set. The tiara consisted of a tiara of graduated sapphires & diamond clusters that sit on top of sapphires & diamond scrolls. The number of sapphire elements have changed over time though. This tiara can be worn with a pair of earrings, a long necklace or a shorter choker necklace, a stomacher, smaller brooches, & bracelets. Some other pieces to be worn with the tiara include detachable pendants. 

The new Sapphire Button Tiara was created from the original necklace using the five large sapphire & diamond clusters from the long necklace & were arranged on a button style frame. The tiara can be worn with a shorter necklace, earrings, & a brooch.

𝒪𝓌𝓃𝑒𝓇𝓈/𝒲𝑒𝒶𝓇𝑒𝓇𝓈:

♕ 1947 to Present: Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II: Queen Elizabeth added the tiara separate from the rest of the George VI Sapphire Jewelry she owns. She used the George VI Sapphire jewels (which she received in 1947 as a wedding gift from her father) to create the tiara in 1963.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

𝒞𝓇𝑒𝒶𝓉𝒾𝑜𝓃 𝒴𝑒𝒶𝓇:

It is unknown about the date the original necklace was created, but the tiara was made in 1963 by Queen Elizabeth II. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

𝒟𝑒𝓈𝒾𝑔𝓃:

Before the tiara was created into a tiara, the jewels were used as a necklace or as a dress ornament for Princess Louise of Belgium. When looking at the design of the tiara, you can see the point of the tiara which is the sign of a converted necklace. The jewels stand upright on the tiara, which would have been seen as drops on a necklace.

𝐿𝒾𝒻𝑒 𝒰𝓅𝒹𝒶𝓉𝑒

Hello fellow Royal Lovers! I am back after a month long break from social media. I have been through so much in one month & 2020 is definitely been a whirlwind crazy year already! I have missed this account so much and I can’t wait to get back into things around here! Here’s a quick recap of what happened in the past month!

𝑅𝑒𝓁𝒶𝓉𝒾𝑜𝓃𝓈𝒽𝒾𝓅 𝒮𝓉𝒶𝓉𝓊𝓈

I have been single for most of my life (I’ve only had two boyfriends before my new boyfriend & they both broke my heart). I had met a new man a few weeks & we seemed to really get along. We both wanted to make things serious & we hung out a few times, but... things happen. We both have had horrible luck with relationships or set ups by friends in the past. We both believe that right now is just not the time to be with each other (as we both need to work on things on ourselves & in our lives) but we both agreed to be friends and still be in each other’s lives. We do both hope to get back together in the future & we still care deeply about each other. I’m not moving on any time soon to take time to focus on myself to make myself better and just prepare for my future. I had so much fun & learned so much in these few weeks with him, so my advice... Take those chances & take those risks. Life is too short. ♥️

𝐹𝒶𝓂𝒾𝓁𝓎

I have been so in love lately being around my family as much as I have. I have been spending every Sunday at my mom’s house having dinner with all of my family, going to birthday parties for my all my cousins (I have 2 different cousins who have kids) & their children (my cousin’s son turned 1 & my cousin’s daughter is about to turn two!), & I’ve been spending a lot of my time either with my cousin or my nephew. Also my brother is also going through a break up so I’ve been spending time with him too by giving him advice from my past. My grandmother had knee surgery in the first week of March 

𝐸𝒹𝓊𝒸𝒶𝓉𝒾𝑜𝓃 & 𝒞𝒶𝓇𝑒𝑒𝓇

Starting in January of 2020, I officially went back to college (well taking my classes online) after taking a semester off from school & I started my first ever job in November of 2020. I have been loving both ever since! I am currently taking 2 courses: General Psychology & English Composition 2 & they are going fantastic! I have been working at a School I attended when I was a child (the school is Pre-K through 8th grade & I attended 5th through 8th grade!) & I love the children I work with dearly. Now due to coronavirus, I sadly do not get to see the kids I work with for a whole month now. I’m fortunate that coronavirus is not affecting my education though as my classes are already online. It did move around due dates though. I just hope everything gets cleared up soon and everyone can go back to normal life. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Well that’s about all y’all! I’m so excited to finally be back & just be on the look out for new posts or updates! I love you all so much!

That Prince Charles is EXTREMELY picky about his Hard Boiled Eggs.

This rumor about Prince Charles originated from the book “On Royalty” by British broadcaster Jeremy Paxman. He wrote in his book that Prince Charles’s chef makes him 7 hard boiled eggs for breakfast every morning, but the Prince only eats 1 egg that is up to his cooking standard.

The Death of His Majesty King George VI

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

𝒟𝑒𝒸𝓁𝒾𝓃𝒾𝓃𝑔 𝐻𝑒𝒶𝓁𝓉𝒽

In 1939, The United Kingdom entered into the World War 2. The stress of the war & almost being killed at Buckingham Palace with his wife by 2 German Bombs, took a toll on King George’s health. The King began to develop many health issues, some problems like Lung Cancer coming from his heavy smoking addiction. Due to King George's declining health he had to: Postpone a tour of Australia & New Zealand in March 1949, have his daughter Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II & His Royal Highness The Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh do a month long tour of Canada after the tour had been delayed for a week in October 1951, in November 1951 the King's State Opening of Parliament had to be read by Lord Chancellor The Right Honorable Gavin Turnbull Simonds, 1st Viscount Simonds from his throne, & his 1951 Christmas Broadcast had to be recorded in sections & edited.

Lung Cancer: Lung Cancer claims more lives each year than any other cancer like prostate or breast. People who smoke have the greatest risk of lung cancer because the chance can increase over the length of time of smoking, what you’re smoking, & how much you have smoked over that period of time. Smoking can cause damage to the cells that line the lungs & change the lung tissue. King George’s left lung was removed by Welsh thoracic surgeon Sir Clement Price Thomas, after a malignant (cancerous) tumor was found in the lung on Sunday, September 23rd, 1951.

Atherosclerosis: A build up of cholesterol plague in the walls of arteries causing obstruction of blood flow. This can cause the arteries to harden & narrow which causes the blood flow to be blocked. It’s normally what causes heart attacks & strokes. King George developed an Arterial Blockage in his right leg, which then turned to threaten his left leg but was treated with a surgical procedure called Endoscopic Thoracic Sympathectomy in 1949.

Buerger's Disease: A rare disease of the arteries & veins in both the arms & the legs. The blood vessels become inflamed, swell, & can become blocked with blood clots. This eventually damages or destroys skin tissues & can lead to either infection or gangrene.

On Thursday, January 31st, 1952, His Majesty King George traveled to Heathrow Airport to say goodbye to Elizabeth & Phillip before they began their tour in Australia via Kenya. The King was not advised by family, friends, & his doctor to not go to the airport. That night when the King traveled to Sandringham House & went to bed, he had suffered from Coronary Thrombosis in his sleep. He was found dead the next morning.

Coronary Thrombosis: A formation of a blood clot inside a blood vessel of the heart caused by a buildup of cholesterol & fats in the artery walls. This blood clot restricts blood flow within the heart & the blood will clot because there is not enough room for it to flow. The causes of CT are high LDL Cholesterol, Smoking, Sedentary Lifestyle, & Hypertension.

3 days after the King’s death, his coffin rested at St. Mary Magdalene Church in Sandringham before being laid in state in Westminster Hall at Palace of Westminster in Westminster, London. As his coffin was transferred from one location to another over 300,000 people filed past his coffin in London, including foreign royals & heads of state

His funeral took place at St. George’s Chapel in Windsor Castle. At 9:30AM on Friday, February 15th, the mile long journey to Westminster Hall began. Big Ben rang 56 times & 56 artillery salutes of 56 guns were fired at both Hyde Park & The Tower of London for the age of the now deceased King. Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother, watched the funeral procession from a window inside Marlborough House.

In the procession walked 4 Field Marshals (Alanbrooke, Ironside, Montgomery, & Slim), 4 Admirals of the Fleet, 4 Marshals of the Royal Air Force, An Escort of The Household Cavalry, Pipers, The band of The Scots Guard, The Earl Marshal, The King’s Personal Servants, His Royal Highness The Prince Philip The Duke of Edinburgh, His Royal Highness Prince Richard The Duke of Gloucester, His Royal Highness Prince Edward VIII The Duke of Windsor, & His Royal Highness Prince Edward The Duke of Kent.

In a carriage behind the King’s Coffin were Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, Her Royal Highness The Princess Margaret The Countess of Snowdon, & Her Royal Highness Anne The Princess Royal.

The funeral procession went past St. James’s Palace, Piccadilly, Hyde Park Corner, Marble Arch, Edgware Road, & Sussex Garden all the way to Paddington Station. After the coffin arrived at Paddington Station, The King was taken by train to Windsor Castle. On the coffin lay the Imperial Crown, Orb, Scepter, & a Wreath of both White Lilacs & White Carnations in the shape of the George Cross. The King was interred in the Royal Vault & was transferred to King George VI Memorial Chapel inside of St. George’s Chapel.
