Statement in Buckingham: Concerns over Queen Elizabeth II’s health condition

At the age of 96, Queen Elizabeth II still rules a country and for now the idea that she can abdicate the throne is not being considered. In this case, his son, Charles of England, would take over from his mother or, failing that, his own son, Prince William with wife Kate Middleton. The sovereign’s ongoing health problems have sown any concern. In fact, in recent hours, it has come to light that Isabel II has suspended a meeting she had scheduled for this Wednesday with her Privy Council.

A recommendation that would come from the medical team working with her. The doctors have decided that he must rest just one day after it reappeared and… entrust the formation of a government and be photographed next to the new British Prime Minister, Liz Truss. “After a busy day yesterday, Her Majesty has accepted the doctors’ advice to rest this afternoon,” a spokesman for the monarch reads in a letter. In this way, the meeting with this body, which is usually one of the regular meetings of the head of state with high-level politicians and advisers, will be “moved,” Buckingham Palace reports.

A week ago, alarms also went off about Elizabeth II’s health. In this case, for the first time in the history of his government, he has hosted the new prime minister at his residence in Balmoral, where he has remained since the coronavirus pandemic. This meeting traditionally takes place within the walls of Buckingham, his former home, as it is located a few miles from the government. Due to his advanced age, he decided that in order to avoid further displacement, there was an unexpected change of plans in his agenda, so he sought a new setting, as confirmed by the Royal House itself in an official statement. .

British tabloids noted that doctors allegedly advised Princes William and Harry’s grandmother not to travel for health reasons, due to the usual ailments of their advanced age. But despite sometimes having to thwart her plans, Isabel II is still active and involved in the work she has been doing for seventy years. In the photos the agencies took, they could see Queen Elizabeth looking visibly thinner than on other occasions. Prince Charles’ mother opted for a midi-cut skirt with a for the occasion print blue and brown plaid which he combined with a white lapel shirt and a gray cardigan. Moreover, one could see that walking she was helped by her walking stick.

This return of Queen Elizabeth II coincided with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s tour. Last weekend, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex landed in the UK, three months after attending the monarch’s platinum anniversary events with their children, Archie and Lilibet Diana. However, there has been no meeting between the marriage, which has been settled in the United States for two years, and the British royal family. Without going further, Harry and Meghan would have declined an invitation to meet with the Prince of Wales. They also did not coincide with the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, despite staying at Frogmore Cottage, a few miles from Adelaide Cottage, in Windsor, the residence of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. Likewise, the couple also has no intention of meeting the monarch.

One day after their return to Manchester, where Markle gave a speech to the Prince’s attentive gaze, who was grave and dejected, they headed to their second destination, Düsseldorf, Germany, to chair the new Invictus Games 2023 bid. . Thursday, September 8 in the UK, after participating in the Awards WelChild.

After announcing this change to the agenda, Buckingham Palace issued another brief statement. “Following further inquiries this morning, the Queen’s doctors are concerned about Her Majesty’s health and have recommended that she remain under medical supervision. The Queen remains comfortable and in Balmoral,” the statement said.
