“But in private, she could be hilarious.”
John then shared an incident that he witnessed himself.
“At another party, I saw her approach Viscount Linley and ask him to look in on his sister, who’d been taken ill and had retired to her room,” he recalled.
“When he repeatedly tried to fob her off, the Queen lightly slapped him across the face, saying ‘Don’t’ — SLAP — ‘argue’ — SLAP — ‘with’ — SLAP — ‘me’ — SLAP — ‘I’ — SLAP — ‘am’ — SLAP — ‘THE QUEEN!’ That seemed to do the trick. As he left, she saw me staring at her, gave me a wink and walked off.”
