I don’t know what the rules are in England, but isn’t the Queen nominally head of the Church of England, its chief defender...doesn’t this decision in a sense declare the queen a bigot?

The Queen is the head of the Church of England, not just nominally but in fact.
I do not know what Her Majesty’s viewpoint on all of this is, and would not presume to second-guess on Her behalf.
That said, I do not give a bl**dy blast what Her Majesty thinks about this matter: She does not hold the keys to Heaven. God does.
If I had to guess, I’d suspect HRH would take a magnanimous viewpoint on this issue. She has been a sensible Queen and has seen massive change during Her reign. And, by all reports, she is a good Christian.
In my books, that is the only thing that matters.
