‘She was immortal’: Frankie Dettori remembers final days with Queen Elizabeth

Queen Elizabeth always felt “immortal”, says Italian jockey Frankie Dettori. Dettori was a close friend of the late Queen and he sat with Sky News Australia host Piers Morgan to discuss how the pair met and to reveal the final days of their friendship. “You always feel she’s immortal,” Dettori said. “When it does happen, it’s a shock because I felt she was immortal.” Dettori had known the Queen for 30 years and said every time he met her he was a "nervous wreck". “She had this aura, she had the ability to make you feel, to make you feel good.”
