Queen Elizabeth's doctors 'concerned' for her health, says Buckingham Palace; family rushes to Balmoral
Queen Elizabeth
Buckingham Palace said on Thursday (September 8) that Queen Elizabeth the Second's doctors were 'concerned' about her health. The doctors have recommended that the Queen remain under medical supervision. Queen Elizabeth (96) is Britain's longest-serving monarch. She has experienced problems with her health since October last year. The difficulties with health have left her with problems in walking and standing.
The Queen's immediate family members have been informed, and they have all rushed to the Queen's side after the Palace revealed doctors were "concerned" for her health.
Clarence House confirmed Prince Charles and Camilla have already travelled to Balmoral.
Prince William is on his way to the Scottish estate as fears for the monarch's health grow.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, who were due to be in London tonight, are also on their way, reports The Sun.They will be joined at the Queen's side by Princess Anne, who was already in Scotland, and Prince Andrew.
The Queen pulled out of a planned meeting after being told to rest.
The previous day she held audiences at her Scottish Highlands retreat, Balmoral, with outgoing prime minister Boris Johnson and appointed his successor, Liz Truss.
"Following further evaluation this morning, the Queen's doctors are concerned for Her Majesty's health and have recommended she remain under medical supervision," Buckingham Palace said in a statement.
"The Queen remains comfortable and at Balmoral," the palace added.
Statement from the palace about the Queen's health is being taken to be unusual. It has come after her few public appearances in which she looked visibly frail.
