Queen Elizabeth Has Won £6.7m On Horses Racing In Last 30 Years

By James Simons-

 Her Majesty has for decades been a mysterious Monarch, but more about her private life has been revealed in the past few years. This year, it was revealed that the Queen has a facebook account in a pseudonym(for obvious reasons), that she always puts money in the Church basket weekly.

Today,  some twitter accounts were buzzing with the not widely publicised news that the Queen has made £6.7m from betting on horses in the last 30 years. Not all their comments were pleasant or reasonable, but some were not amused that The Queen spends some of her time betting on horses and making money from it. One person tweeted ”you mean the Queen  has made £6.7m from spending tax payers money, and went on to speculate on how much of tax payers money she may have spent to earn the £6.7m”. He concluded with a remark not worth repeating, because many tweeter trolls don’t assess things in a logical way, although many do too.

Another responded by suggesting that the Queen may send her people to find the person who had tweeted the comment, and have him dealt with, something that cannot be expected of The Queen. The Queen as the Head of the Monarch always and will always have money because of who she is, her wealth is not dependent on tax payers money even though she receives an amount of payment from tax payers money. She has a right to leisure time that includes a bit of betting for fun, and if she has struck lucky on a number of occasions, then good luck to her.

The revelation of the Queen’s fortune on horse betting was first revealed in Britain’s OK Magazine, after writers there obtained the information through their contacts. The Queen has always been a topic of high public interest, editors and writers from various publications have been able to utilise contacts from the Queen’s circle to release information about the Queen for historic purposes and public knowledge. The Queen will not always be able to identify the sources of some of the revelation, as her circle of friends, close contacts, or aides and former aides, are not that small, though definitely not that large either.

Last April, The MailOnline revealed in April that the Queen has a deeply private personal account, with a secret friend list. The paper revealed that Elizabeth II  loves chatting away on the phone, and she  is up to date with the latest technology, including a lightweight smartphone. She is also very good and acquainted with texting, something many women her age and even younger would not know how to do.

Her Majesty owns an encrypted mobile phone,  reportedly one of the most sophisticated in the world. The phone is also incapable of being hacked by hackers .Her most common phone pals  are Princess Anne, her daughter, and John Warren, her horse-racing guru and son-in-law of the Queen’s great friend.

Early last month, a former Buckingham Palace chef lifted the lid on the royal family’s eating habits – revealing that the Queen has Kellogg’s for breakfast.

Darren McGrady told the Daily Mail  the monarch loves dark chocolate, refuses to have garlic in her meals, and sometimes even eats out of Tupperware. Mr McGrady worked in the Buckingham Palace kitchen for 11 years, before going on to serve Princess Diana.  In May, 2016, The Sun  revealed that The Queen loves a quiet debate round the table, as they revealed that the Queen asked for three good reasons why Britain should remain in the EU. The paper had recently revealed that the Queen supported Brexit, but was forced to issue an apology by press regulator, IPSO, after a complain by Buckingham Palace that The Sun had suggested she had breached her constitutional obligations.

Ipso on that occasion ruled that the title of the article was not supported by the text, but the public was nevertheless left with the useful knowledge that the Queen personally preferred Britain to leave the EU. The  tastes, interests, and inclination of the Queen will always be important for public knowledge to give us greater insight into the interesting and active woman who heads The British Monarchy. What we know so far is that The Queen is a very outgoing individual for her age, who is up to date with social media and modern technology, is intellectual, and has a social life that includes horse racing. And of course that she he won £6.7m in 30 years of horse racing. What else? We just have to wait for what other interesting revelation will emerge in the future.
