An Elegant Engagement Photoshoot
Queen Elizabeth II was just 21 years old when she and Prince Philip got engaged in 1947. When they finally let the public know about the engagement, they had a photoshoot for the press release. In this photograph, Elizabeth looked absolutely dazzling in a white dress and a pearl necklace. However, there were a lot of people who felt that Philip would not be a good husband for the then-princess. Luckily, their love managed to survive all the criticism and they remain in love to this date. In more recent news, Queen Elizabeth II underwent a cataract surgery in May 2018.
A Mother At Only 22
After Princess Elizabeth and Prince Philip walked down the aisle, it did not take long before a child was on its way. In 1948, the royal couple welcomed Prince Charles into the world. We are sure that it must have been an exciting but challenging time for the new mother! We bet she fell in love with her son the moment she first laid her eyes on the baby. Everyone waited for the first photoshoot of the new family and they certainly delivered. Prince Charles is the person who will take over the throne after his mother.
