Queen Elizabeth snubs Boris Johnson's girlfriend for palace visit: She takes 'a dim view of adultery
Queen Elizabeth’s British subjects may have long ago accepted that affairs, cohabitation and divorce are features of modern relationships, but the queen is still very much a Church of England traditionalist when it comes to the relationships she’ll recognize in official settings.
That’s the likely reason that Boris Johnson’s girlfriend Carrie Symonds was noticeably absent when Elizabeth invited the new prime minister to Buckingham Palace Wednesday to formally ask him to form a government, the Daily Beast reported Friday.
It’s been a longstanding practice for the partners of new prime ministers to accompany them to the palace to meet the queen, the Daily Beast said. But over the decades, that practice has applied to prime ministers’ wives and husbands.
