Elizabeth II will miss service on occasion of her platinum anniversary

The Queen of Great Britain Elizabeth II will miss the solemn service in St. Paul’s Cathedral in honor of the 70th anniversary of her rule due to “some discomfort”, which she felt during the celebration of June 2, the press service of the Buckingham Palace said.

The palace said that the 96-year-old Queen made the decision “reluctantly.” The events of the first day – military and air parades – she really liked it, it was said in the message.

The journalist of the BBC, Shon Kaflan, who illuminates the royal family, believes that participation in the solemn service was more important for the queen as a religious person than in other events.

June 2-5 in the UK celebrates a platinum anniversary of Queen Elizabeth II. She is a monarch with the longest rule in British history. In the spring of 2022, Queen Elizabeth II missed several public events due to “episodic problems with mobility.” In February, she was ill with Covid.
