The queen shared her own message to mark her birthday and the first birthday without her beloved husband of 73 years. Prince Philip passed away at 99 on April 9, 2021.

In the statement, she expressed her gratitude for those who had sent messages of support and condolences over her husband's death. She also wrote that she appreciated the well wishes she received for her birthday.

Osmond has at least one thing in common with Her Majesty. They both welcomed a lot of grandchildren.

The Queen admitted that the family's heartbreak was lessened by the many tributes people shared about the Duke of Edinburgh from within the UK and the world.

The tributes served as a reminder to the family that Prince Philip profoundly impacted many people worldwide. In her statement, she thanked those that had shown her family kindness as she wrote:

"My family and I would like to thank you all for the support and kindness shown to us in recent days."

On the other hand, the Queen welcomed a great-grandchild this year as her grandchild, Princess Eugenie, welcomed her first child August. She will be graced with a new great-grandchild through Prince Harry in the upcoming months.
