The Queen was known to be a mystery throughout her life, with royal watchers rarely getting a glimpse of Her Majesty's personal life. However, the Queen, who has died at the age of 96, was brought to life in the Netflix series The Crown (pictured), which chronicled her years of service, from her wedding to Prince Philip in 1947 to becoming the monarch at just 25, before finally finding her feet in the role as she met with hundreds of Prime Ministers, Presidents, and world leaders. It has also pointed to difficulties in the beginnings of her marriage to Prince George of Edinburgh, as well as her children's broken marriages throughout the four seasons.
