Seeing that small video of the Queen with Queen Mary is just so insane to me for some odd reason lol. Like the Queen remembers speaking and having a relationship with someone who was born in 1867. Like it reminds me of how Queen Victoria’s granddaughter literally lived until 1981.

It is kinda amazing to think about even just beyond her family but just the range of people that she has met. What I think makes those clips feel a little shocking in a way is that they're in color. Many of the clips that we have of Queen Mary are in black and white so seeing her and Lizzy in those vibrant colors is just not what we're used to. I didn't know that about one of Queen Victoria's grand children but wow!

The way they look at each other 🥺😍

Do not dare tell me they weren’t in love

My favourite assumption was that George was a martinet of a husband who never let Mary do anything and his word was law. When actually he was probably the little spoon when they cuddled. He was Mary’s bitch.

I just started watching The Crown now I’m looking for some BRF book recommendations. Right now I’m most interested in King George VI, King Edward, and Queen Marry but I’ll take recs for any good books about whoever you like.
