The queen is aging, but, prefers to stand when offered a chair

The 95-year-old Monarch recently confessed that she “couldn’t move” last month and was recently pictured with a walking stick, raising concern about her health. The Queen tested positive for Coronavirus on February 20, just days after Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall both contracted the virus and despite being triple vaccinated, she was thought to have experienced mild cold-like symptoms during her bout with the virus.

According to a royal expert, the monarch doesn’t like to interact with anyone who suggests that she should rest!

According to Robert Hardman, “In 2017 she attended the Queen’s Young Leaders event at Buckingham Palace. 50 talented young people received a scroll and got to chat with the Queen in the ballroom. They put a chair out where it was expected she would sit. But as she walked in, she gave this chair a really withering look and then just put her handbag on it as if to say, ‘I’m not sitting!’” However, Mr Hardman suggested this is not the only time such an incident has occurred.

Her Majesty has been spotted with a trusty walking stick at recent events and is thought to have not been well enough to walk her Corgis around the grounds of Windsor Castle this year.

Following a “precautionary” choice to remain absent from the Commonwealth Service, the Queen declared to the nation in a statement: “In this year of my Platinum Jubilee, it has given me pleasure to renew the promise I made in 1947, that my life will always be devoted in service.
