Catherine of Aragon trending on Henry VIII and Jane Seymour's 483rd wedding anniversary... Guuurl that's shady 🕶️ Until her dying day, Catherine didn't believe her and Henry's annulment was genuine, signing her final letter to him, "Catherine the Queen" 👑

An excerpt from Queen Victoria’s diary on 24 Dec 1840 gives us a glimpse into her Christmas: “I then arranged the present tables for Albert & Mama with 2 fine Christmas trees.” In the spirit of Victoria, we’ve been busy decking the halls of her former home at #KensingtonPalace 🎄

Today, HM The Queen reaches an historic milestone, becoming the first British Monarch to celebrate a #PlatinumJubilee. Her Majesty acceded to the throne on 6 February 1952 on the death of her father King George VI, and this year marks a record-breaking 70 years of service (1/2)
