EDITORS COMMENTS
In this enchanting photograph, Princess Elizabeth, who would later become Queen Elizabeth II, is seen gracefully linked hands with Lady Pamela Mountbatten as they dance an eightsome reel at The Saddle Club in Malta in 1949. Accompanying them on the dance floor is her future husband, Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh. The image captures a moment of pure joy and freedom for the young royals, who were both in their late twenties at the time. The Saddle Club, a popular social venue in Malta, provided an ideal setting for the lively dance, which was a traditional Scottish reel. The Princess and Lady Pamela, who were both wearing elegant evening gowns, move in perfect harmony with each other, while Prince Philip looks on with a proud smile. The image exudes an air of excitement and anticipation, as the Princess was only a few years away from her wedding to Prince Philip and the beginning of her reign. The photograph offers a glimpse into the early years of Queen Elizabeth II's marriage and her time in Malta, where she and Prince Philip lived before their wedding. The image is a reminder of the fun and carefree moments that the young royals shared during their time in the Mediterranean island nation. The eightsome reel, with its lively and energetic steps, symbolizes the joy and unity that the Princess and her future husband experienced during their time together. Overall, this photograph is a charming and evocative reminder of a bygone era and the early days of Queen Elizabeth II's reign.
