Will of Queen Elizabeth II to be kept for 90 years

The will of Queen Elizabeth II of Great Britain will not be made public, it will be classified.

The will of Queen Elizabeth II of Great Britain will be sealed and kept in a safe for at least 90 years. Reuters writes about it.

It is understood that the practice of sealing the wills of deceased members of the royal family began in 1910 and that the rarely mentioned Prince Francis of Teck, whose will was one of more than 30, kept in a safe in a unspecified location in London under the supervision of a judge.

After the death of a senior member of the royal family, the executor of the will applies to the head of the family division of the Supreme Court of London with a request to seal the will. Judges in this position have always agreed.

When the Queen’s husband, Prince Philip, died in April 2021, Judge Andrew MacFarlane had to consider an application to seal his will. He decided that the will should indeed be sealed, but decided to make his decision public in order to give the public some understanding of what was going on and why.

It has been reported that the late Queen’s will will be kept in a safe, along with that of her husband, as well as her mother Elizabeth and sister Princess Margaret, who died in 2002.

According to the publication, Margaret’s will was the subject of a legal challenge in 2007 by Robert Brown, who claimed to be the princess’ illegitimate son and wanted to see her to advance his claims. However, the courts did not grant him access.

Recall that Queen Elizabeth II died on the night of September 8 at the age of 96 in the Scottish castle of Balmoral.

His eldest son Charles succeeded to the throne and was proclaimed king on 10 September.
