According to royal watcher Katie Nicholl, the past few months of close proximity has translated into the pair finding that they, “really enjoyed” spending more time together.

She told 9Honey, “I remember speaking to a very well-placed source at the time who said while the Queen was, like the rest of the country, was very down about the pandemic and not being able to work [as usual] and being in lockdown, the real upside for her was the time that she got to spend with Philip.”

The Queen kept up her workload via virtual appearances, but that meant her travel time was eliminated and on top of that she was unable to receive guests due to the lockdown protocols. All of this led to what Katie describes as the two spending, “a lot more time,” with each other.

It has been claimed that the couple have spent more time with each other in the past seven months since COVID-19 overtook the world, than they have since their honeymoon period. In their early married years they lived in Malta, in a simple villa, from 1949 to 1951. The Queen has said that it is the only time in her life that she lived “normally.”
