Queen Elizabeth II resumed her official face-to-face commitments this Wednesday, February 16! After more than a week of quarantine, linked to contact with her son Charles, contaminated by Covid-19, the monarch received this Wednesday the Secretary of Military Defense and several high-ranking officers. Fit and smiling, dressed in a patterned dress, she received them surrounded by her dogs.
While the encounter went well and she even joked about her dogs growling at her guests, a video has her fans around the world worried. Indeed, in an extract widely distributed on social networks, we see her moving around with a cane and pointing her foot, explaining: “As you can see I can’t move“.
Not really enough to reassure the subjects of the Kingdom, who are already asking many questions about the Queen’s state of health since the death of Prince Philip, her husband, last year. Alone, the monarch was very isolated to protect her from Covid-19 infection and had to delegate part of her commitments to her children and some of her grandchildren, including Prince William and his wife Kate, future kings. and queens.
For the moment, she seems to have avoided serious infections and continues to hold the rhythm, while the epidemic ebbs slightly. Always indefatigable, however, she recently announced that her daughter-in-law Camilla would indeed become queen consort when Charles ascends the throne and continues to train her descendants.
Ascended to the throne in 1952, Queen Elizabeth II is celebrating her 70th anniversary this year. If the official date has just passed, she will celebrate this big step at the beginning of the summer, surrounded by her family and all the British. Charles and Camilla will obviously be expected, as will William and Kate from Cambridge and their children (George, 8, Charlotte, 6 and Louis, 4).
Prince Harry is also expected among the guests. However, it is impossible to know for the moment if he will be present, relations with his family are still very tense. We should, however, not see his wife Meghan Markle and his children, Archie and Lilibet (2 years and 8 months). The queen’s youngest son, Andrew, involved in the Epstein affair and sidelined from the Kingdom, should meanwhile be extremely discreet.
