COMMENTARY

Peter Burgess

Sixty years ago today, 25-year-old Princess Elizabeth was on holiday in Kenya when she received the news that would change her life forever – her father, King George VI, had died and she was now Queen.

Now aged 85, Elizabeth is still devoted to her public, carrying out numerous public engagements every year.

Her dedication has earned her many admirers, including her grandson Prince William, who recently spoke of his awe at her ability to 'carve her own way' through the world.

Elizabeth's official diamond jubilee celebrations will take place in the UK in June.
