Queen Elizabeth II was never without her trusty handbag, carrying her preferred Launer purses for decades. But while her bags become an iconic symbol of Her Majesty, one thing that many have wondered is exactly what she kept inside her luxurious purses.
It turns out the late monarch, who died at the age of 96 in 2022, was a romantic at heart. According to royal author Phil Dampier, who wrote What's In The Queen's Handbag: And Other Royal Secrets, told Hello! that she kept a sweet memento from her husband, Prince Philip, in her purse.
