English grannies everywhere can breathe a big sigh of relief – Queen Elizabeth and her tall husband of 73 years, Prince Philip, both received their first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine over the weekend. The Royals join more than a million other people in the UK who’ve been jabbed by the tiny, life-saving prick. A Buckingham Palace spokesman confirmed the news in a statement that said simply: “The Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh have today received Covid-19 vaccinations.” Usually, the couple’s private health matters are kept under wraps, but apparently, the Queen wanted the public to know “to prevent speculation.”
