Queen Elizabeth was born on April 21, 1926 and is the oldest child in a family of two sisters. Queen Elizabeth II, was born in London, England in 1926. She is the daughter of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth.

At the age of 10, little Elizabeth became the heir to the throne, after her uncle King Edward VIII ceded the throne to his younger brother King George VI on December 11, 1936.

Educated at home, Queen Elizabeth received extremely thorough instruction from the top teachers in England. The Queen also used to be part of the Boy Scouts and is fluent in French. When World War II broke out, she served in the British Army's logistical support force.

On the fateful day of February 2, 1952, 25-year-old Princess Elizabeth was visiting Kenya when her husband informed her that King George VI had died in his sleep. When she returned to England, she was personally picked up at the airport by Prime Minister Winston Churchill. However, her official coronation ceremony took place just over a year later, on June 2, 1953.

During her more than 70 years of reign, England had 15 prime ministers and the United States had 14 presidents. She is the monarch of 15 Commonwealth kingdoms, including Great Britain, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Jamaica and others.

The Queen of England married Prince Philip in 1947. Their happy marriage lasted 74 years until the Prince's death last year.

The Queen's health has been in the spotlight since she spent a night in hospital last October with an undisclosed illness and doctors later advised her to rest. The same month, the Queen of England also gained attention when she used a cane in public for the first time since 2004. Since then, the Queen has limited public appearances.

In February, the Queen was confirmed to be infected with nCoV, causing concern because she was in a high-risk group. Buckingham Palace then issued a statement saying she had only mild flu-like symptoms, but the Queen later shared that she felt tired and exhausted from the virus infection.

In May, Queen Elizabeth did not attend the opening of parliament for the first time in nearly 60 years due to travel difficulties.
