The Queen's sleep routine including bedtime and eating habits

The Queen's bedtime routine includes a strict sleeping schedule and her own private quarters.

A recent study from bedding experts, Bed Kingdom, has discovered Queen Elizabeth's sleeping routine is among the most popular of all the royals. A team analysed Google trends data for the sleep routines of key royal family members to discover which one generated the most searches.

Coming out on top was Queen Elizabeth with a 136% higher search rate than other royals, with Prince Harry and Kate Middleton sitting at second and third respectively. After celebrating her 80th year on the throne some have suggested her strict bedtime routine may have helped her longevity.

The Queen sleeps 8.5 hours a night, which is well within the healthy sleep range of an adult in the UK, who should be getting 8-9 hours a night. Researchers claim going to sleep at the same time every night will train the body to feel tired at the designated time, with the Queen retiring at 11pm every single night.

Separate bedrooms may also play a huge factor in a better sleep routine as the Queen enjoyed an entirely separate abode from her late husband Prince Philip. Eating light, protein-filled and regular meals like The Queen is also a good enhancer of sleep.

The Queen is known to prefer fish and vegetables and reportedly a light breakfast of Special K with fruit, which will give her slow-burn energy and keep her fresh throughout a busy royal schedule, saving sleepiness for bedtime. The Queen also takes light, daily exercise in the form of walking – a useful method of releasing endorphins, which can lead to a more relaxing night’s sleep.
