QEII's official cause of death has been released. Which, no surprise there.  It also confirms the time of death (3:10pm) was well before Wills, et al, got there (around 5pm), so all the nonsense about Harry arriving too late to see his dying granny unlike Wills is exactly that, nonsense, as only Charles and Anne were there at the time. Now I'm questioning the notification timeline again. Were they told when they landed? I have no idea how long it takes to fly to Aberdeen, UK geography is not my strength. I believe an hour |

I think an hour-ish but I remember at the time the weather was not great at the time. (Hence planes instead of helicopters for landing closer to balmoral) so perhaps a bit longer |

I really love her occupation all causally being “Her Majesty the Queen” |

Which, face value is fine. But when the undertone of “Meghan and Harry trying to make money off the royal family” is constantly bandied about, but the Phillips’ two get passes for it constantly, is just so irritating. Zara lives on her mom’s property, which gets royal protection. Her endorsement deals likely have less to do with her athletic skills and more to do with her name. Mike’s podcast wouldn’t do as well without his royal connections. They can’t avoid the royal connections, but the media could stop acting like only Harry and Meghan would dream of capitalizing on it. |

"Old Age" was always going to be the public reason for cause of death. Any real diseases or ailments would never be explained.
And I think that's okay.

Not gonna lie, really irked at the cause of death. But that's coming from someone who literally determines causes of death for a living. "Old age" would absolutely not fly for anyone else. That's right up there with my biggest pet peeve COD, "cardiac arrest".

This is regarding Danish grandchildren, not Dutch. I wonder if the Dutch Royals plan to do something similar. The Dutch “Royal House” so the working royals, are the king and queen, their kids, the previous queen and her sister en husband and the king’s brother and sister-in-law. And the king’s nieces and nephews are all princes and princesses. |

Obviously it was the effect. |

After listening to a recent episode of Maintenance Phase, I am less annoyed by the COD. Apparently how that is handled is often very region and can be super general even for normal people.

BBC alert (literally this is all it says)— The Queen is under medical supervision at Balmoral after doctors became concerned for her health, Buckingham Palace says. this is the first alert. I'm trying to do some time conversions... ETA so about 12:30 PM that day the news broke, about 2.5 hours before TOD |

If I make it to 96, no one needs to look into it.
We’re good.
