I suspect they have been a not-insubstantial factor in her longevity so far.

She didn't want to leave behind young dogs.

However, she still has some around.

No matter how you feel about the queen, her progeny is a rotten, spoiled, self entitled bunch of brats with some full on racists.

Let them be any other ordinary family. They don't rise to the level of some godly privileged class.

Sorry for spoiling your romantic memories. Royalty makes me ill.

Her animals brought her more satisfaction than her own children have, that's for sure.

I think The Queen is getting ready to give up the good fight, in the next days.
