Despite looking well at the beginning of the Platinum Jubilee celebrations on Thursday, June 2nd, Queen Elizabeth II was reportedly feeling some “discomfort” during the Trooping the Color parade, and will therefore be missing one of her scheduled appearances on Friday, June 3rd.
“The Queen greatly enjoyed today’s Birthday Parade and Flypast but did experience some discomfort,” a royal spokesperson said in a statement on Thursday, June 2nd, before confirming that the 96-year-old monarch will no longer be attending the National Service of Thanksgiving at St. Paul’s Cathedral, as originally planned.
“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,” the statement continued.
“The Queen is looking forward to participating in tonight’s Beacon lighting event at Windsor Castle and would like to thank all those who made today such a memorable occasion.”
