Two new corgi puppies have joined the royal household to help the Queen through her husband Philip’s illness.

The dog-loving monarch, 94, is said to be ‘delighted’ by the new additions as she deals with a torrid start to 2021.

The Duke of Edinburgh has been in hospital for more than two weeks and had to undergo heart surgery for a pre-existing condition on Wednesday.

An almighty row has also broken out between Harry and Meghan and the rest of the family over the couple’s interview with US chat show host Oprah Winfrey.

The Queen has had more than 30 corgis since she was given her first on her 18th birthday in 1944.

But she’s only had one pet – a corgi/dachshund cross called Candy – since November, when her treasured dorgi Vulcan died.

It was thought that the monarch would never get another dog because she was concerned about what would happen to it if she died.

Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II has died after 70 years on the throne, with her death announced by Buckingham Palace on September 8, 2022.

She died at the age of 96 surrounded by her family at her home in Balmoral, including her son and heir to the throne Charles, the Prince of Wales, and her grandsons, the Duke Of Cambridge, Prince William and the Duke of Sussex, Prince Harry.

But she’s said to have been gifted the two new puppies who have joined her in self-isolation at Windsor Castle, according to The Sun. Their names and genders have not yet been revealed.

The Queen’s love of corgis is well known and her pets have accompanied her on various royal outings over the years.

Famously, a corgi named Monty starred alongside the Queen and Daniel Craig in a video for the 2012 Olympic Games.

All of the corgis or dorgis the Queen has owned previously had been bred from her original pet, Susan and the latest additions are the first not to be a direct descendant.

A palace insider told The Sun: ‘The Queen is delighted. It’s unthinkable that the Queen wouldn’t have any corgis.

‘It’s like the Tower of London not having any ravens. They have only been there a couple of weeks but are said to be adorable and made the castle their home.

‘Both are said to be bringing in a lot of noise and energy into the castle while Philip is in hospital.’
