The Queen's sentimental wedding secret from Prince Philip to be revealed
ok.co.ukThere have been many emotional drawings doing the rounds depicting the Queen reuniting with her beloved Prince Philip following her death.
The royal pair wed on 20 November 1947 and had spent 73 years together. Up until her last official sighting on September 6, Her Majesty was spotted wearing her engagement ring and wedding bands.
As is tradition, the Queen wore a Welsh gold wedding ring following her royal wedding in 1947, but Philip had a special message engraved inside the band which only three people had reportedly seen – the two royals and the jeweller.
Ingrid Seward, author of Prince Philip: Revealed, explained: "She never takes it off and inside the ring is an inscription. No one knows what it says, other than the engraver, the Queen and her husband."
