The queen “is entering a new phase of her reign: in public we will see her less and less”

The fact that the Queen Elizabeth , after hospitalization of last October 20, has jumped over Cop 26 also the Remembrance Sunday Service – one of the appointments she cares about the most – is raising concerns around the world about her health condition. Buckingham Palace with a note specified that the sovereign was unable to attend the ceremony celebrating the end of the First World War due to “a back problem“. But the sudden forfeit has alarmed many royal observers.

There is none in their ranks Penny Junior, a Windsor reporter who said to herself “not at all surprisedFrom the last absence of Elisabetta. Because the queen “is entering a new phase of her reign, in which we will not see her in public very often“. Only since last April, when the beloved died Filippo, attended 120 institutional engagements. “We are so used to seeing her always around, apparently much younger than her age, that we were convinced that it could hold certain rhythms forever. Clearly it can’t. There comes a time in everyone’s life when they have to admit they are getting old and they cannot do the things that perhaps they would like to do ».

On the orders of the doctors Elisabetta in recent weeks not only he had to change his public life. He also had to give up all his passions: no evening drinks, no late-night TV, no horseback riding or with the beloved corgi. Measures that will inevitably force the sovereign to slow down the pace, even to get in shape at Platinum Jubilee next year, when he will celebrate 70 years of reign. To the microphones of Bbc Radio 4 the expert on royal issues of the Sunday Times Roya Nikkhah ha spiegato:We will see Elisabetta still around but I believe there will be a decisive change of gear, an evaluation of the commitments in which it is necessary to participate and which he feels he can really face ». And Joe Little, executive director of Majesty magazine, a monthly on the Royal Family stated that “we will have to get used to last minute cancellations».

Elizabeth last October had refused the Senior of the Year Award because “you are old when you feel old”. Despite the ailments of age, the temper is the same as always. And that he decides to retire by making room for his son Carlo seems excluded. He proved it, according to royal expert Duncan Larcombe, when, again in October, he is presented in public with the walking stick. How to say: in spite of her age and related ailments, the queen is there. And it will always be there. On the other hand, in a speech made on the occasion of her twenty-first birthday, the monarch had said to her subjects: “My whole life, be it short or long, will be in the service of you and of our country“. A promise he has no intention of failing.
