Is Queen Elizabeth II dead? No she is not. The Britain’s longest -reigning monarch is the latest victim of online death hoax headlines circulating. She is actually in very good health.
The headline announced Queen Elizabeth II dead. No doubt, it would cause panic among unsuspecting readers considering the extent of her reign. Queen Elizabeth II celebrated her 90th birthday last April. She remains in good health regardless of her age. Thus, news of her supposed death came as a surprise. “The Guard1an”  quoted a statement from a palace representative who revealed the cause behind the queen’s death.
“Queen Elizabeth had become increasingly frail in recent weeks following her bad cough and chest infection. Her condition deteriorated this morning and her doctors were called. Queen Elizabeth died peacefully in her sleep this afternoon at Royal Lodge.” The publication further expressed sympathy to the royal family.
A closer inspection of the publication’s name reveals the play of letters and numbers. Thus, readers would mistake it for the legitimate one. And according to Australia Network News, the part of the text is eerily similar to the 2002 press release of the Queen Mother’s death as published by an authentic source, The Guardian.
