Angela Kelly, the Queen's dear friend and her stylist, revealed Muick and Sandy had been a "constant joy" and "godsend" to the late monarch during lockdown.
"I was worried they would get under The Queen's feet, but they have turned out to be a godsend," she wrote in her book The Other Side of the Coin, The Queen, the Dresser and the Wardrobe.

The puppies were her last Corgis, generously gifted to the Queen by the Duke of York and his daughters, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie.
Muick and Sandy come into her life at a difficult time in her life when Prince Philip was in hospital, bringing her great joy and a new lease of life.

Her Majesty had a lifelong love of Corgis, something people loved about the late monarch.

It was a love affair that started at the age of 18 when her dad King George VI gifted her Susan, her first Corgi.
Corgis would go onto accompany the Queen for nearly 80 years while she devoted her life to the service of the UK.
