Many congratulations to Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Phillip who marked their Blue Sapphire anniversary together on Tuesday.
The royal couple has an association of successful 65 years. A journey started back in 1939 when she was a princess and he a member of British Royal Navy. The future queen met the Greek and Danish royal family member while attending his cousin Princess Marina of Greece’s wedding.
They quickly became pen pals and later married at Westminster Abbey in 1947. Now 91, Prince Phillip had proposed the royal lady with a platinum ring holding heirloom diamonds from his mother’s tiara.
Prince Phillip was involved in the design which included a 3 carat round solitaire in the center flanked with 5 smaller diamonds on each shoulder.
The couple, who now have four children and eight grandchildren, has been continually celebrating landmarks together. Last year’s Diamond Jubilee of Her Majesty’s reign is the very fresh celebration.
But the Blue Sapphire anniversary is a special occasion as no British royal couple has stayed together for so long as the Queen and Duke.
There romantic journey has touched another milestone and they are truly made for each other. We wish them many more years of togetherness and marital bliss.
