According to a Times Online article, the Queen was not amused at the ‘direction’ given to her by a famous photographer whilst posing. Whether Annie Leibovitz was not properly versed on Royal etiquette, or simply decided to chance it and attempt to push her luck a little too far is not made clear.
Irina and I recently watched the ‘The Queen’ film, and I was actually expecting to not feel any warmth for her majesty, however the portrayal left me re-assessing just how different a universe the Queen lives in, and not just in a positive way. Having to live a large part of your life according to protocol could well leave you feeling prickly when people not close to you make unusual requests.
