Elizabeth & George VI

Becoming the king of England was never something King George VI ever envisioned for himself. Having grown up believing that his elder brother, Edward, would take the throne allowed George the freedom to aspire to a life of privacy with his wife and two daughters. However, when his father died and his brother abdicated in order to marry the woman he loved, George's life was turned completely upside down as he was now expected to step up to the role of King of England. A shy and reserved man with a crippling stammer might have never been able to grow into a courageous king if it were not for his wife, Elizabeth, by his side. Discover how she helped him to overcome his speech impediment, how he and his family boosted the morale of the British people during the second world war, and how they broke the cycle of an uptight royal family and prepped their eldest daughter to one day become the Queen of England.
