Sad news from The Palace that the Queen’s last remaining corgi, Willow, has passed on. Her Majesty has been surrounded by corgis during her entire reign, and they did not always have the greatest reputation for friendliness.

“The corgis took to you straight away,” Harry said of Markle’s first meeting with the pups. “I’ve spent the last 33 years being barked at. This one walks in, absolutely nothing.”
