The Queen Mum is the mother of Queen Elizabeth II. She remains the most popular member of the British Royal Family. She has survived two World Wars, and has been alive for almost the entire 20th Century.
The Queen Mum won Britain's love and admiration when she refused to leave London during Germany's World War II bombings.
The German leader at the time, Adolf Hitler, called her the most dangerous woman in Europe because she was so good at boosting the public's spirits.
At 99 years old the Queen Mum still knows how to have a good time.
Even though she broke her hip last winter, she put aside her walking stick and did the twist at Prince Edward's wedding in June.
She has four official homes and often throws expensive dinner parties.
Because she is so admired, she does not face the same media pressure the royal family members do.
The Queen Mother's last trip overseas was in 1989 when she visited Canada.
The trip marked the 50th anniversary of her first trip to Canada, a country she is very fond of. 2. Who won Britain's love and admiration when she refused to leave London during Germany's World War II bombings?
