The last queen. That is the name of the recently published book by the Flemish royal family expert Jo de Poorter (55). He gives an insight into the life of the most famous royal in the world through the people who are important in her life. De Poorter spent 2 years working on the nearly five hundred page book. ,,Why this title? Because I am convinced that a queen of this size will never be born again. Elizabeth is one of the longest reigning monarchs at 95 years old. From once the most powerful kingdom in the world. That interest will never return. In addition, it will be centuries before a woman can again ascend the throne in the United Kingdom, because all successors are men.
