Queen Elizabeth had ‘very personal’ faith: Bream
Shannon Bream discusses what a King Charles reign could be like, unpacks Queen Elizabeth's faith and previews her first 'Fox News Sunday' show as official host.
In the days leading up to her death, Queen Elizabeth II was living her life to the fullest and enjoying her days.
The Right Rev. Dr. Iain Greenshields, who was a guest of the queen's at Balmoral Castle last weekend, revealed that in spite of her health becoming increasingly poor, Elizabeth was the "life and soul of things."
"It was a fantastic visit," the clergyman told The Times.
"Her memory was absolutely amazing, and she was really full of fun. It came as a great shock to me when I heard she was gravely ill because she was in amazingly good form over the weekend."

"She was the life and soul of things," Greenshields continued. "She was speaking very personally to me about her time there way back when she was a child. She was talking about her horses from the past, naming them from 40 years ago, people's names and places.
