| Hello, my full name is Elizabeth Alexandra
Mary and I am the Queen of the United Kingdom.
I was born in London in 1926, and I had one
younger sister, but no brothers. My father
was the Duke of York when I was born, but
as his elder brother 'abdicated' the throne,
my father then became King George VI. My mother
was the daughter of the Earl and Countess
of Strathmore, Lady Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon,
and although I have an 'official' birthday
in June, my real birthday is the 21st April.

of Greece, and he is now called The Duke of
Edinburgh. We have 4 children and 6 grandchildren.
My eldest son Charles has the title of the
Prince of Wales and he married Lady Diana
Spencer who was later killed in a car crash.
Their 2 children are Prince William and Prince
Henry, (although everyone calls him Harry).
