Girl receives letter from Queen Elizabeth after dressing up as the royal

A family in Ohio recently received a royal correspondence after their 1-year-old daughter dressed up as Queen Elizabeth – complete with her corgis – for Halloween. 

In October, Katelyn Sutherland posted pictures of her daughter Jalayne, 1, on Facebook showing off Jalayne’s adorable outfit: a blue coat and hat, a white wig, gloves, pearl necklaces, a purse and, of course, two corgis by her side.

The post received hundreds of likes and in the comments, Sutherland explained that her daughter “absolutely loved the costume,” while the corgis “were proud to sit next to their Queen.”

Sutherland decided to share the adorable photos with Queen Elizabeth herself, though she didn’t expect a response, according to The Sun. However, in December, Sutherland received a letter from Windsor Castle.

According to an image of the letter obtained by The Sun, Queen Elizabeth’s lady-in-waiting, the Hon. Mary Morrison, wrote back to Sutherland and her husband on Dec. 9. 

In the letter, Morrison wrote: “The Queen wishes me to write and thank you for your letter, and for the photograph you thoughtfully enclosed.”
