Prince Andrew and his ex-wife, Sarah Ferguson, will reportedly take care of Queen Elizabeth II's beloved corgis following her death Thursday.

"The Duchess bonded with Her Majesty over dog walking and riding horses, and even after her divorce, she would continue her great friendship with Her Majesty, by walking the dogs in Frogmore and chatting."
