This month, many members of the royal family, including the Prince and Princess of Wales, will join and Queen .

Former royal butler Paul Burrill, who worked alongside the late for a decade, has shed light on one thing that the Queen was adamant about during her time at Balmoral.

According to Burrill, the Queen loved having her bedroom windows open every night to enjoy the fresh air from the highlands.

It seems that she cherished this frugal way of life, as Balmoral had remained largely untouched since Queen Victoria's era, nearly a century earlier.

From August until early October, II never closed her bedroom windows.

Burrill described her sleeping arrangements as reminiscent of “the princess and the pea,” with numerous sheets, blankets, and covers making it difficult to locate her.

The bedroom could be quite cold, especially in October in Aberdeenshire.

Tragically, Queen Elizabeth II passed away at Balmoral on September 8th last year, and the royal family will gather at the same location on the one-year anniversary.

While it will undoubtedly be a somber day for the king and the rest of the royal family, it provides an opportunity for them to come together and remember the late queen.

To mark the first anniversary, the Prince and Princess of Wales are expected to lead tributes.

Although there are no plans for public or private family gatherings, William and Kate will use the occasion to reflect on the transition the royal family has undergone since then.

After the coronation and conclusion of the summer holidays, they anticipate discovering what lies ahead.

In addition to the Prince and Princess of Wales, and the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh will join the king at Balmoral.

Kate and William will also bring their three children, Prince George, , and , to spend time with their grandfather and the rest of the family.

As the royal family prepares for this poignant day, it is clear that Queen Elizabeth II's memory will be cherished and celebrated in a quiet and private manner at Balmoral.

The legacy she left behind continues to shape the monarchy, and her absence is deeply felt by all.
