People and royalty
It’s been a few months now that the health of Elizabeth II worries.
The Queen notably suffers from significant mobility problems, which will prevent her from being sworn in to a new Prime Minister next month in London. Whoever succeeds Boris Johnson will instead go to her home for the traditional hand-kissing ceremony. The latter, now 96 years old, spends her summer at Balmoral in Scotland as every year.
But a worrying new habit has raised even more suspicion about the Queen’s health in recent days. This Saturday, August 27, the daily My London has indeed revealed that Prince Charles, very worried, went almost daily to visit his mother. According to royal observers, this gesture could be seen as a sign of the declining health of the monarch.
“It is very unusual for Prince Charles to make these kinds of impromptu visits to see his mother“, reported Ingrid Seward, author specializing in royalty, to My London. Since being infected with Covid-19 last February, the queen had drastically reduced her public appearances during her platinum jubilee in May. Fortunately, Camilla’s husband is present to support her. “Charles is a very caring person. And who else can she rely on now that Prince Philip is gone? », continued Ingrid Seward. In addition, the rest of the royal family ” is scattered all over the country”.
