The Royal Family Compilation

This is a historic photograph taken at the royal wedding of Prince George, Duke of Kent, and Princess Marina of Greece and Denmark. Let's take a look at each person in the photo and find out when they passed away. This 1,948 photograph captured five key figures of the British monarchy. Nearly three quarters of a century later, only one of them remains alive, the infant in his mother's arms, now King Charles III. In this video, we'll tell the story of what happened to the others. King George VI died on the 6th of February, 1952, at the age of 56. The cause of death was a coronary thrombosis, a sudden heart attack in his sleep. His passing made Princess Elizabeth the new queen at just 25 years old. Queen Elizabeth, the queen mother, passed away on the 30th of March, 2002, at the age of 101. The cause of death was simply old age. She remained a beloved figure in British public life until the very end. Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, died on the 9th of April, 2021, at the age of 99. The official cause of death was simply old age. He was the longest-serving consort of a British monarch, married to Queen Elizabeth for over 73 years. Queen Elizabeth II passed away on the 8th of September, 2022, at the age of 96. The official cause of death was old age. She was the longest-reigning monarch in British history, spending 70 years on the throne. This family photo was taken in 1982, shortly after Prince Harry was born. The newborn is held by his mother, Princess Diana. Surrounding them are four generations of the British monarchy. Prince Philip, Prince Charles, the queen mother, and Queen Elizabeth II. The image captures life, legacy, and hope. But time moves on, and today, many of those pictured are no longer with us. In this video, we remember who we've lost and when they left us. On the 31st of August, 1997, Princess Diana died in a car crash in Paris at the age of 36.
