Jubilee of Elizabeth II: the queen still absent

The Epsom Derby horse race (UK) is one of Queen Elizabeth II’s favorite events. However, it was her daughter, Princess Anne, who made the trip on Saturday June 4 to represent her. The 96-year-old sovereign, who suffers from mobility problems, felt “some discomfort” on the first day of the Jubilee, Thursday June 2. At the same time, Prince William, his wife Kate, and their children George and Charlotte were in Wales. They were visiting Cardiff to attend rehearsals for a concert.

For this third day of jubilee is marked by celebration. And the largest is in London. Many stars came to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the Queen’s reign, which follows the event on television. The group Queen, accompanied by singer Adam Lambert, opens this gigantic concert. Three stages linked together by footbridges have been trodden by Diana Ross, Alicia Keys or David Beckham. 22,000 people made the trip.
