FILE - Britain's Princess Elizabeth and her fiance Lieut. Philip Mountbatten, background, arrive at the Caledonian Hotel to attend a dinner given by the Duchess of Buccleugh, as policemen hold back cheering crowds, July 15, 1947, in Edinburgh, Scotland. Elizabeth and her husband Prince Philip enjoyed a stable relationship for more 70 years, a union that far outlasted the marriages of three of her four children _ Charles, Anne and Andrew. âÄœHe has been quite simply my strength and stay all these years,âĝ the queen said of Philip on their 50th anniversary.
