Britain’s longest-reigning monarch Queen Elizabeth II has been placed on medical supervision following breakdown in health.
The 96-year-old has been suffering from what Buckingham Palace has called “episodic mobility problems” since the end of last year.
“Following further evaluation this morning, The Queen’s doctors are concerned for Her Majesty’s health and have recommended she remain under medical supervision,” the palace said in a statement.
“The queen remains comfortable and at Balmoral.”
Prince Charles has reportedly traveled to Balmoral along with the Duchess of Cornwall, while Prince William is currently on his way.
Royal reporter Rebecca English tweeted that The Earl and Countess of Wessex as well as Prince Andrew are also traveling to Balmoral, while Princess Anne is already there.
Royal reporter Omid Scobie later confirmed that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle (who are currently in the UK) are also making their way to Scotland.
All the Queen’s four children are now with her at Balmoral Castle. Along with her grandson, the Duke of Cambridge.
Last October, Elizabeth spent a night in hospital and she has been forced to cut back on public engagements since then.
On Wednesday, she cancelled a virtual meeting with senior ministers after being advised to rest by her doctors.
The previous day she had been pictured appointing Liz Truss as the country’s new prime minister at Balmoral.
A palace source played down speculation that the monarch had suffered a fall.
