It Is A Duty And Not A Privilege
In the end, Queen Elizabeth II does not see her position as a privilege but a duty. There is a good chance that she does not plan to abdicate the throne at all.

She was still just a princess at the time. “I declare before you all that my whole life, whether it be long or short, shall be devoted to your service,” she said back then.

There was once a time however when Elizabeth was young, that she acted in a way that any other ordinary kid would! To be fair, a colossal world event had just occurred, who can blame her? There was one particular night that the Queen snuck out and saw London as a regular citizen! How did Elizabeth find her ‘day trip’? Find out now!
