After the death of her husband, Queen Elizabeth II continues to be in great sadness.

Your 95th birthday will therefore be a sad one.

Update from April 21, 4:47 p.m.:

Queen Elizabeth II is in mourning on her 95th birthday.

She will be 95 years old just a few days after the death of her husband Prince Philip.

Understandably, there will be no big celebrations at the court this year.

And the royal family was hit by another loss on Saturday (April 17th).

A long-time employee of Windsor Castle passed away on the day of Prince Philip's funeral, the

Telegraph

reports

.

Sir Michael Oswald worked for the royal family for over half a century.

He died at the age of 86.

He was the Queen's advisor on one of her great passions: traditional horse racing.

“Sir Michael has done an outstanding job in the administration of the royal stud for so long,” says the now royal racing advisor John Warren to

Blood Horse

magazine

, “he was deeply indebted to the stables, the queen and her mother.

He was extremely enthusiastic and caused quite a stir with all of his royal victories. "

“He always said he had the most wonderful job anyone could have ever had,” explains Oswald's widow, Lady Angela, “in all the activities in his life, he did what he would have done had he been a rich man who doesn't have to work. "

A few days after Prince Philips death: grief overshadows the Queen's 95th birthday

First report from April 21, 1:08 p.m.:

London - It was only a few days ago that Queen Elizabeth II carried her husband Prince Philip to the grave.

She is probably still in deep grief at the moment.

Under normal circumstances, however, she would have good reason to be happy on Wednesday (April 21): the British monarch will be 95 years old on that day.

But the celebrations are limited.

Queen Elizabeth II turns 95: grief overshadows her birthday

According to

Bild.de

, the monarch should stay at Windsor Castle on her semicircular birthday. Her late husband was buried there just four days ago. For the funeral service he had even planned a prank before his death, with which he surprised everyone. The traditional gun salute is waived on the anniversary, which is sad for her because of the loss of her husband. After seven decades, she spends it without Prince Philip. A conventional birthday party must also be avoided due to the corona.

Instead, there is probably a visit plan.

Her loved ones are apparently allowed to visit her one after the other in predetermined time windows and meet her outside in the gardens.

Her son Prince Charles, her daughter Princess Anne and possibly also their grandchildren like Prince William have the opportunity to congratulate the Queen on this day and be with her.

As has now become known, Prince Harry has already left Great Britain and is with his pregnant wife Meghan, with whom he emigrated to the USA after Megxit.

The Queen has to do without him on her special day.

Insiders rated Prince Harry's departure one day before the Queen's birthday as the failure of possible attempts at reconciliation with father Prince Charles and brother Prince William.

Whether the family will get back together is apparently currently in the royal stars.

With his statement on the death of his grandfather, Prince Harry even pissed off the fans of the royal family.
