When asked about Queen Elizabeth’s health, in her first round of public engagements since Britain voted to leave the European Union. She has told that she is still alive and has quipped the British monarch Queen Elizabeth on Monday.
The dry remark followed a dramatic few days for Britain that has seen the prime minister resign, the pound hit a 30 year low, and England defeated by Iceland in a shock football rout and next came Elizabeth's two-day trip to Northern Ireland, where she met with leaders including Martin McGuinness, a former Irish Republican Army paramilitary who now serves as deputy First Minister of the British-ruled province.
Mc Guinness had asked as he extended his hand in greeting to the monarch in a televised meeting that "Hello, are you well?" and she is still alive anyway. And Queen Elizabeth laughed, shaking his hand and they have been quite busy and there's been quite a lot going on.
The queen, who turned 90 this year, added that she had been busy celebrating "two birthdays". The monarch's birthday is celebrated twice under British tradition and Elizabeth has not issued a statement on Britain's vote to leave the EU, a shock result that has strained the ties of her United Kingdom.
