In his statement, Sir Christopher said, “It has been my very great privilege to serve the Queen since the Golden Jubilee in 2002 and, especially, as her private secretary for the past decade. In that time, as throughout her reign, Her Majesty’s authority has brought stability, purpose and color to country and Commonwealth alike.”

Christopher continued, “With the Duke of Edinburgh’s recent decision to draw back from public life, the Queen’s own unwavering commitment as sovereign has the full and active support of the entire royal family. It is therefore with every confidence, and with Her Majesty’s agreement, that I now hand over the responsibilities of the Queen’s private secretary to my successor, Edward Young.”

Change in the Royal Household

Edward Young, Christopher’s deputy, joined the royal household in 2004. Christopher’s departure has caused a stir, with the Mail on Sunday reporting a significant shakeup as the Queen and Prince Charles aim to unite the rival “firms” or households of the younger royals. The 91-year-old Queen and Prince Philip, who is retiring from royal duties this week, have been open about their plans to scale back and pass the torch to the next generation.
