Daniel Craig is honored by Queen Elizabeth II. At this year’s New Year celebrations, he will receive the same title that his character James Bond has.
London – The Queen’s traditional annual honors celebrate the accomplishments and contributions of people across the UK, including those from the world of show business, sports and politics. To say goodbye to his role as James Bond, actor Daniel Craig (53) is now drawing level with his legendary film character in real life, reports 24royal.de. *
It is the same honor that diplomats are often given. The 53-year-old British actor was named CMG, Companion of the Order of St. Michael and St. George by Queen Elizabeth II. * (95) for his services to film and theater. The fictional character James Bond, who played Craig in five 007 films, wears this award in the Ian Flaming films.
The British royal family traditionally awards numerous medals and awards for the New Year. This year, successful fundraisers and corona experts were also given a new status. Tennis star Emma Raducanu (19) received a so-called MBE like “Spice Girl” Melanie Brown (46) after her victory at the US Open for her commitment to combating domestic violence. The MBE – “Member of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire” – is one of the lower places in the ranking of the British Order of Merit. The female accolade was given to actress Vanessa Redgrave (84). She was made a lady. Racing driver Louis Hamilton (36) has also recently been allowed to call himself “Sir” *.
Duchess Camilla * (74) also received a major award. The wife of the heir to the throne, Prince Charles * (73), was appointed a royal member of the Order of the Garter by Her Majesty. This currently only includes the Queen’s children – Prince Charles (73), Princess Anne * (71), Prince Andrew * (61) and Prince Edward * (57) – as well as her eldest grandson Prince William * (39), but not their spouse. * 24royal.de is an offer from IPPEN.MEDIA.
