SPEAKING OUT IN POWERFUL NEW DOCUMENTARY THE QUEEN SHOWS HER PASSIONATE COMMITMENT TO SUPPORTING VICTIMS OF DOMESTIC ABUSE AND THEIR FAMILIES

Speaking of how abuse affects both women and men, she adds: "I'm appalled by the number of people who are being killed... it was coming up to two a week. It's so important to do something now." Her Majesty has devoted herself to shining a light on the issue over the past eight years and speaks out in a powerful new ITV documentary, Her Majesty the Queen: Behind Closed Doors, in which she has an emotional reunion with Diana Parkes, whose story first inspired her to take action.

Diana's daughter, mother of two Joanna Simpson, was murdered by her former husband in 2010.

Recalling their first encounter in 2016, the Queen tells Diana: "I'm never, ever going to forget that meeting. It's engraved on my heart.

"I remember seeing you sitting there and I thought: 'My goodness, that's somebody of my generation.' I tried to put myself in your shoes.

"I thought to myself: 'Well, if it had been my daughter, I don't think I would have been able to sit and be as dignified and as wonderful as you were that day." She adds: "My reaction was to cry.

I wanted to do something about this because, unfortunately, it's not a one-off; this is happening all the time." "By scratching the surface, you get a terrible shock," she continues. "It's such a heinous crime; if we could just get more people discussing it, talking about it.

"People are so shocked by what they hear that, rather like me, they say: 'Hang on a minute, perhaps there's something we can help with to hopefully put an end to it."

In the programme, the Queen meets survivors of domestic abuse and visits the organisations that support them.
