I was in my pjs and couldn’t be arsed to put my contacts in at 4AM for the royal wedding, so I squinted at the screen for a few hours. Your nan was some kind of superhero!

She was so excited, I’m sure she hadn’t slept a wink, so she was probably up all night 😂 Being an older child hiding in bomb shelters in her London suburb, and seeing a young princess similar in age manage the war, I think the pride of the monarchy was deeply ingrained in her identity and memories of home 💕
