If you're talking about the UK, there have been two Queen Elizabeths (The first one was only queen of England and Wales, not Scotland or Ireland). They both had only one mother each. Queen Elizabeth I was the daughter of King Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn. Anne Boleyn was Henry's second wife. She was executed in 1536 when Elizabeth was two years old. Queen Elizabeth II was the daughter of King George VI and Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon, Known as Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother. She died in her sleep on 2002 aged 101 years.
Specifically, Queen Victoria's great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great grandmother was Margaret Tudor who was married to King James IV of Scotland. Margaret Tudor was the sister of Henry VIII king of England and Queen Elizabeth I's father. Both Queen Elizabeth and Queen Victoria are descendants of King Henry VII, Queen Elizabeth's grandfather and Queen Victoria's great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great grandfather.
Both Prince Philip and the current monarch, Queen Elizabeth II, are great great grandchildren of Queen Victoria. Therefore, as well as both Elizabeth and Philip being related by blood to Victoria, they are also related to each other, being third cousins.
As they are cousins of a sort , they had known each other for a long time, the queen is younger than him. He is of course a Prince of Greece, and by 1946 were an "item".
Answer Queen Elizabeth I of England was born on 7th September 1533. She became Queen of England on 17th November 1558 and reigned until her death on 24th March 1603. Queen Elizabeth II is the present monarch of the Commonwealth Realms. She was born on 21st April 1926 and became Queen on 6th February 1952. Queen Elizabeth I of England was a Tudor and Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom Of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, is a Windsor. While Elizabeth I had nothing but English blood in her veins, Elizabeth II has mainly German blood and hardly a drop of English blood. Elizabeth I reigned during a time when English monarchs had absolute power and Elizabeth II is a consitutional monarch, having hardly any power at all. Elizabeth I was far more outspoken and daring than Eizabeth II has been during her reign. While Elizabeth II married and produced heirs, Elizabeth I never did. Elizabeth I was queen of only England and Ireland, whereas Elizabeth II is Queen of the United Kingdom (England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland), Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Jamaica and many other countries.
The Elizabethan times were when Queen Elizabeth ruled England.

I HAVE BEEN LOOKING AT SHAKESPEARE AND QUEEN ELIZABETH PICTURES AND THEY RESEMBLE EACH OTHER. COULD THEY BE DISTANT RELATIVES FROM ANNE BOLEYN'S FAMILY. SHE CAME FROM THE GENTRY - RATHER COMMON STOCK.

For the same reason Paul McCartney is known as "Sir": He was knighted by the Queen (a different queen in each case, of course; Elizabeth II isn't that old).

They knew of each other, certainly--she was the queen, and everyone had heard of her. He was a well-known actor and playwright. It is unlikely that if they ever spoke to each other, it went beyond "Well done, Mr. Shakespeare." "Thank you, your majesty."
Elizabeth and her brother Edward were close in age and enjoyed each others company. Mary believed Anne Boleyn was the cause of everything bad in Mary's life and her resentment towards her daughter Elizabeth increased as Elizabeth was older and a Protestant.
He lived and his plays were performed under King James I and Queen Elizabeth I.
