While we at Gossip Cop marvel at Queen Elizabeth’s longevity, the tabloids take a more cynical approach to the aging sovereign.
When it comes to over-the-top levels of ridiculousness though, you have to hand to the. The two papers are both owned by the same company and both use this tactic to sell magazines, but thehas made a true cottage industry out of it. At least once a year, and sometimes more, the tabloid recycles this bogus allegation hoping to trick concerned grocery shoppers into impulse buys while they wait to check out.
It’s worth noting that of the seven stars on the cover, five are thankfully still with us, and none passed away within four years of these “predictions.” The tabloid is shameless. Just three months later, the paper asserted Prince William and Kate Middleton were named king and queen by a dying Queen Elizabeth. They weren’t, and she can’t do that, so she didn’t:
Then there was this from the summer of 2014 that “announced” Queen Elizabeth II was abdicating and dying:Despite predicting the end four times in 2014, the queen, of course, lived to see 2015, but in January 2016, the tabloid was once again claiming the end was near for Her Majesty:In September of the same year, it was back at it, this time claiming Queen Elizabeth was not only dying, but she had quit her job. Neither were true, of course.has slowed its predictions.
