After 34 years as a Queen Elizabeth II impersonator, Mary Reynolds is retiring 'out of respect' for the late monarch.

However, she will still keep her outfits as a keepsake and in memory of a woman who she claimed 'felt part of the family'.

Mary, aged 89 from Epping, Essex, first started her career as a lookalike of the Queen back in 1988, but she had received comments saying how she looked like the late monarch since the age of 17.
