How a schoolgirl discovered that her granny was actually a Queen – Royal Central

How do you tell your children that their granny is one of the most important people in the world? The deep bond between Queen Elizabeth II and all her grandchildren was evident as they mourned her death in 2022. But before that, The Duchess of Edinburgh revealed how her daughter, Lady Louise, discovered that her grandmother was actually Queen.

During an interview with Sky News a couple of years ago, Sophie revealed it was only after Lady Louise went to school that she realised she was related to the British monarch.

One particular example was when Lady Louise came home from school one day, excitedly telling her mother that her classmates said her grandmother and The Queen are the same person. Sophie confirmed the news and the young royal could still not wrap her head around the fact that her grandmother was the Monarch.

Having a moment of realisation himself, the Duke of Edinburgh also shared when he realised the role his mum played in society.

He said: “I can’t necessarily remember when that realisation was there because when you grow up intuit family, and in that environment, that’s just what your parents do.  

“It’s been much more interesting watching our children growing up and watching our children trying to work out what this is and how that works… I was probably not until 5 or 6, I think.”
