The Queen was born Princess Elizabeth Alexandra Mary on April 21, 1926, in London. At the time of her birth, no one would have predicted that she would someday become queen. Her father, Prince Albert, succeeded to the throne after his brother, King Edward VIII, abdicated the throne six months into his reign.

Queen Elizabeth II is the longest-lived and longest-reigning monarch in British history. This year, she will celebrate her Platinum Jubilee, marking her 70 years on the throne.
