Queen Elizabeth II has found herself suffering from health issues over the past several months. Aside from testing positive for COVID earlier this year, the 95-year-old royal has also struggled with her mobility and can no longer do things she was once able to. Since these issues have caused her to cancel both virtual and in-person appearances, her attendance at events is reportedly going to be scaled back.
"If Her Majesty does attend, it will be decided on the day and she will be accompanied by another member of the Royal Family," the palace insider explained to The Mail on Sunday. This latest decision to be made about the queen's future follows last month's news that she would permanently be relocating to Windsor Castle, rather than continuing to remain at Buckingham Palace, where she has lived for years.
