The Queen shared a unique bond with one member of staff who hailed from humble beginnings in Liverpool.
The city has joined the rest of the commonwealth in entering a 10-day period of mourning after Buckingham Palace confirmed yesterday (September 8) the monarch had passed away at her Balmoral residence. As the country mourns, the ECHO looks back on Queen Elizbabeth II's relationship with one of her most trusted staff members - her dresser, Angela Kelly.
Her Majesty and Ms Kelly were colleagues and friends for nearly 30 years, despite their upbringings being worlds apart. Ms Kelly was born in Walton to a crane driver and nurse and, as a teenager, would spend her time at Liverpool's flea markets looking for materials to make clothes.
