It has been known that two new songs have been composed to celebrate the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee.
Her Majesty was photographed working from her famous red boxes as she became the first British monarch to mark 70 years on the throne.
In her speech, the Queen remembered her father —King George VI and the day she ascended onto the royal throne of England.
People spotted a picture of her with her father King George VI. The Queen’s father died about 70 years ago leaving her to take the Crown aged just 25.
‘It is a day that, even after 70 years, I still remember as much for the death of my father, King George VI, as for the start of my reign,’ she wrote.
‘As we mark this anniversary, it gives me pleasure to renew to you the pledge I gave in 1947 that my life will always be devoted to your service.’
