The MailOnline reported
earlier this year that the canine-loving monarch had made a change from her
usual Corgis by adopting a four-year-old pup, Lissy.
The Queen’s new companion is a
prize-winning cocker-spaniel, who was crowned top dog at the Kennel Club Cocker
Spaniel Championship.
Mamma Mia joins fellow beagle
Guy and a black Labrador named Pula at Meghan and Prince Harry’s Montecito
home.
The Queen is known for her love of Corgis
Meghan and the Queen aren’t
the only dog lovers in the royal family, however, as the Duke and Duchess
of Cambridge are also known for their love of canines.
The Cambridges’ family dog
made her royal photograph debut when she was pictured alongside Princess
Charlotte in photos to mark the young royal’s seventh birthday.
The dog’s name was revealed in
the photo’s caption: “Princess Charlotte whose seventh birthday is on
Monday, with cocker spaniel Orla, taken by her mother, the Duchess of
Cambridge, in Norfolk, at the weekend.”
The adorable pup was gifted to
the family by Kate’s brother James Middleton after their beloved English Cocker
Spaniel, Lupo, sadly passed away last year.
Announcing the sad news with a
post on social media, William and Kate penned the message: “Very sadly
last weekend our dear dog, Lupo, passed away. He has been at the heart of our
family for the past nine years and we will miss him so much.”
