I didn't know for sure that I was adopted until a few years ago. My parents couldn't have children of their own but they loved me as if I was. I never wanted for anything. They werw both busy but made time for me. My aunts were wonderful and tried to make sure I knew everything I would need as princess and later queen.

My best friend was like my sister and we were inseparable.

It was a fairly idyllic life, honestly.
