Queen elizabeth cause of death

Queen Elizabeth II was the ‘gold standard’ of monarchs

The encounters were brief, but on all three occasions that John Quelch met Britain’s longest-reigning monarch, he walked away feeling he had engaged in a heart-to-heart talk. 

“When I met her, she was a very attentive, curious person and asked very good questions,” Quelch, the London-born dean of the University of Miami Patti and Allan Herbert Business School, recalled of his meetings with Queen Elizabeth II. 

“She was a person of very few words, but I felt that I had had a personal conversation with her on each occasion,” he added. “Given the enormous number of people with whom she had to interact daily, it was a tremendous skill to be able to appear in a genuine, authentic way to be so attentive a listener to everyone with whom she met. She was what we would call the consummate quiet leader—no drama, just solid, sound wisdom, and good judgment, representing continuity and stability.”

Queen Elizabeth II, who ruled the United Kingdom for seven decades, was such a longstanding institution that it’s easy to forget she wasn’t supposed to have become queen at all.

Born in 1926, Elizabeth was the daughter of King George V’s second son, and had little expectation of succeeding to the throne until her uncle, King Edward VIII, abdicated in 1936 to marry the divorced American socialite Wallis Simpson. After the death of her father, King George VI, 25-year-old Elizabeth was called upon to assume the throne, beginning a momentous reign. In February 2022, the United Kingdom staged a series of celebrations for the queen's Platinum Jubilee—marking 70 years of her service to the British Commonwealth.  

Queen Elizabeth II, who died at age 96, proved consistent and enduring. In April 2021, she lost her husband of 73 years, Prince Phillip, when he died at age 99. In February 2022, the Queen contracted the coronavirus, which she later said left her "very tired and exhausted." She installed her 15th prime minister. Liz Truss, just two days before her death.
