A stone slab engraved with the names of Queen Elizabeth II, her late husband Prince Philip, and her parents King George VI and Queen Elizabeth, has been installed at St George's Chapel in Windsor / Handout via Evening Standard. 

The stone, which is new, has replaced the black stone slab set into the floor which had featured the names George VI and Elizabeth in gold lettering.The fresh stone now contains, in list form, “George VI 1895-1952” and “Elizabeth 1900-2002” followed by a metal Garter Star, and then “Elizabeth II 1926-2022” and “Philip 1921-2021”.

All four royals were members of the Order of the Garter, which has St George’s Chapel as its spiritual home.

“Visitors will be able to pay their respects to Her Late Majesty from September 29th 2022 when Windsor Castle reopens to the public.”

The tombstone is new, replacing the one that had been put into the Chapel in 2002 following the burial of Queen Elizabeth, The Queen Mother.

Also buried in the tiny chapel are the ashes of Princess Margaret, the only sister of Queen Elizabeth II. There is a separate gravestone for Her Late Royal Highness.

The chapel also contains an engraving of lines from the poem, The Gate of the Year, which King George VI quoted in his Christmas message in 1939 as Britain was at war. The most famous words of the poem are featured on the wrought iron gates that separate the chapel from the main part of St. George’s Chapel. They read ‘I said to the man who stood at the gate of the year ‘Give me light that I may tread safely into the unknown”.

Prince Philip was laid to rest alongside Queen Elizabeth II in the same family service on September 19th 2022. His coffin had rested in the Royal Vault at St. George’s Chapel, Windsor since his funeral in April 2021. The couple, who were married for 73 years, had always intended to be buried together and had agreed that whoever passed away first would ”wait” for the other so that their final resting place would be side by side.

Visitors will be able to pay their respects to Her Late Majesty from September 29th 2022 when Windsor Castle reopens to the public. Admission to St. George’s Chapel is included in the ticket although on Sunday, the chapel is only open for worship.

Queen Elizabeth II died on September 8th 2022 at Balmoral. She was 96 and had reigned for 70 years.

The Duke & Duchess of York. This may be an engagement photo, not sure, but it's one of my favorites. I love how Bertie is trying to repress his joyful giggles. And I also love Elizabeth's style.

Prince Albert & Lady Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon (the future King George VI & Queen Elizabeth) got engaged on this day in 1923.

“My dear Darling, I am just writing you a very little letter, I shall be thinking about you when you get this, & hoping that everything will go off wonderfully well. I am quite sure it will. Also, I might add that I do [underlined several times] love you Bertie, & feel certain that I shall more & more . I shall miss you terribly. You are such an Angel to me.” - Queen Elizabeth

“This is my first letter to you since you made me such a very happy person that Sunday at St Paul’s Walden & you don’t know what a wonderful difference it has made to me darling, in all ways. I think I must have always loved you darling but could never make you realise it without telling you actually that I did & thank God I told you at the right moment.” - King George VI

Hello . How are you I hope you are having a good day. I like your page very much. I had a question for you. How was the relationship between the magnificent Queen of England Alexandra and her beloved granddaughter Prince Albert (Father of King George VI and the late Queen Elizabeth II) and Elizabeth Bowes Lyon (Queen Queen)? Although I did research from many sources, I could not get any information. Elizabeth was a very cheerful, loving person. He was very entertaining and most importantly a blessing for Bartie , he had numerous benefits . In real terms, Elizabeth was the strong reliable woman behind the successful man. How was the relationship between Elizabeth and Queen Alexandra in this case. Please do not offend me and answer my question please 🥰 I love you, thank you 😊🙏

I am not very sure about Queen Alexandra's relationship with her grandson King George VI's wife(Elizabeth). But I do know that she had a lovely relationship with George & all of her other grandchildren🥰

This is the only photo of Alexandra with Elizabeth ⬇️
