Queen's incredible heartfelt gesture to closest staff member who became dear friend

The Queen's personal assistant and dresser will stay on living at Windsor as a final heartfelt thank you by Her Majesty to the scouse woman who became a close friend. Angela Kelly originally started as an Assistant Dresser at the Royal Household before becoming the Queen's most trusted member of staff.

She even moved into Windsor Castle to help the Queen with her mobility issues during her final months, with other royal staff members describing hearing them laughing away, enjoying each other's company.

As a reward for many her many years as the monarch's right-hand woman, she has been allowed to stay on in her 'grace-and-favour home' at Windsor, thanks to the Queen herself. Staff that worked for the Queen typically have a month's notice at the end of her reign to find another job, or be redeployed to another Royal household.
