It’s not going well for Queen Elizabeth II. The 96-year-old monarch was placed under medical supervision this Thursday, September 8, her doctors announced. Two days ago, photos of his hands showing significant bruising had already raised concern. Elizabeth II then came to make a remarkable appearance at Balmoral Castle, where she has been living there since this summer, on the occasion of the appointment of Liz Truss as Prime Minister in place of Boris Johnson.
“The Queen received Liz Truss at Balmoral Castle today. His Majesty asked him to form a new administration. Mrs Truss accepted Her Majesty’s offer and was appointed Prime Minister and First Lord of the Treasury, could we read on the Twitter account of the royal family. A post accompanied by a photo of Her Majesty revealing her right hand on which were visible bruises. “Why does the queen have such a big bruise on her hand?”, English journalist Angela Levin wondered when she saw this image that went around the world.
