Why Queen Elizabeth II Banned Her Corgis From Sleeping In The Bedroom

Queen Elizabeth II loves her Corgis a lot, but she still didn’t allow them to sleep in her bedroom.

In the new documentary “The Story of the Royals,” it was revealed that the Queen banned her dogs from staying in her bedroom because they snore loudly. In April, Her Majesty lost her 14-year-old dog, Willow, the last in a royal line of Corgis. Willow was put down after suffering from cancer.

The House of Windsor first came across its first Corgi in 1933 when King George VI got a puppy named Dookie for his family. Dookie was soon joined by Jane, they were with the royal family until 1944. The latter died after getting struck by a car.

That same year, Queen Elizabeth II received a Corgi for her 18th birthday. She named the dog Susan. Her Majesty was so attached to Susan that she even sneaked her in during her honeymoon with Prince Philip in 1947. Since then, Her Majesty has already owned at least 30 Pembroke Welsh Corgis all from Susan’s lineage.

Willow’s recent death marked the end of an era because it has been reported that the Queen doesn’t want to leave her dogs behind. Since she is now old, she wants to make sure that they won’t be neglected when she passes away.

In related news, Fox News previously reported that the Queen’s dogs, Vulcan and Candy, who are a crossbreed between a Dachshund and a Corgi, loved Prince Harry’s wife Meghan Markle. During their first meeting, the Queen’s dogs instantly warmed up to the Duchess of Sussex because she is also a dog lover.

Andrew Morton, a royal biographer, previously said that this is one of the reasons why the Queen also fell in love with Markle immediately.

“And the fact that the Corgis liked her was a plus in her favor,” he said.
