The royal engagement was made public as Prince Philip presented Elizabeth a diamond ring he had designed himself.
However, it is reported that Prince Philip actually proposed his sweetheart Elizabeth at Balmoral in 1946.
The Princess father King George VI told his daughter and Prince Philip not to make the news about their marriage public until Elizabeth was 21 years old.
