Where is The Queen today?

THE QUEEN warmed hearts around the country as she appeared on the Buckingham Palace balcony during the RAF flypast.

Her Platinum Jubilee celebrations are filled with events but Her Majesty will miss today's Service of Thanksgiving due to discomfort.

Where is The Queen today?

While the 96-year-old did not attend Trooping the Colour, the Queen still came to the royal balcony to inspect the troops – using a walking stick for balance.

Her Majesty was later joined on the famed balcony by working royals, including attention-grabbing Prince Louis for the RAF flypast.

Despite her smiles yesterday, it was announced that the Queen would not attend the Service of Thanksgiving at St Paul's Cathedral, London.

Yesterday, officials said: "The Queen greatly enjoyed today’s Birthday Parade and flypast but did experience some discomfort.

Queen to skip St Paul’s service ‘with GREAT reluctance’ after Mall discomfort

"Taking into account the journey and activity required to participate in tomorrow’s National Service of Thanksgiving at St Paul’s Cathedral, Her Majesty with great reluctance has concluded that she will not attend."

For the first time, Prince Charles took the salute at Trooping the Colour on behalf of the monarch.

How is The Queen's health?

The Queen's health has been steady over the past few months but officials shared that she is struggling with mobility issues.

Worries arose after it was revealed that Prince Andrew had tested positive for Covid just days after seeing his mother.

Andrew was not seen at Trooping the Colour and did not attend the flypast, although as a non-working royal he would not have been allowed on the balcony this year.

He is thought to have tested positive on Wednesday, June 1, during a routine Covid test.

The Queen is not thought to have caught the virus at this time.

Her Majesty is no stranger to the illness after testing positive herself in February.

Queen Elizabeth II suffered mild symptoms and was placed in isolation while monitored by doctors constantly.

She is triple-jabbed and was "determined to carry on" during her time positive.

The Queen tested positive following an outbreak through the staff at Windsor Castle.

It was also reported that The Queen is suffering from several mobility issues that are forcing her to miss out on attending some events.

An insider told The Mail on Sunday: "The assumption must now be that The Queen will not be present at events.

"If Her Majesty does attend, it will be decided on the day and she will be accompanied by another member of the Royal Family."

She also withdrew from attending the Remembrance Sunday service at the Cenotaph and the annual Commonwealth Service.

Which Platinum Jubilee events will The Queen miss?

Sadly, the decision has been made that Her Majesty will miss the Service of Thanksgiving on June 3.

It is thought she will watch the events she is not able to attend on the TV.

She might also miss one of her favourite events – the Epsom Derby – which takes place before the Platinum Party at the Palace.

As decisions are being made on the day about the Queen's attendance, things could change.

Hopefully, The Queen will be in good health to attend the Party At The Palace.

BBC announced that they will be broadcasting the event on BBC One and BBC iPlayer.

Artists confirmed to perform at the event are George Ezra, Diana Ross and Eurovision entry Sam Ryder, hosted by Roman Kemp and Clara Amfo.
