The royal family

The British Royal Family is over 1,000 years old. Queen Elizabeth is the 54th queen since King Alfred in the 9th century. Her husband is Prince Philip. They have four children and seven grandchildren. The Queen’s eldest son is Prince Charles. He has two sons from his marriage to Princess Diana. Charles is now married to Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall.

The Queen is the constitutional monarch of 16 sovereign states and head of the 54 - member Commonwealth of Nations. According to the United Kingdom Constitution, Queen Elizabeth II is the head of all branches of public power. As a constitutional monarch, Her Majesty does not “rule” the country, but fulfills important ceremonial and formal roles with respect to Government. She is also the chief of the Armed Forces and has important relationships with the Churches of England and Scotland.

The queen works hard. She approves and signs every Parliament bill to make it law. She appoints the Prime Minister. The secret services respond to her, she signs all treaties, and she awards all the honors and recognitions of state. She visits many different countries and she welcomes hundreds of visitors to Buckingham Palace every year. She is Head of 620 charities. She also discusses politics with the Prime Minister every Tuesday.

Members of the Royal Family support the queen in her state and national duties, carry out important work in the areas of public and charitable service, and help to strengthen national unity and stability. Every year there are over 2,000 official engagements held by Royal Family. Members of the Royal Family often undertake official duties in the UK and abroad where the queen cannot be present in person. Their various responsibilities reflect tradition, their own personal interests and Britain’s former imperial status.
