The Queen is under 'medical supervision'

The Queen is under medical supervision at Balmoral after doctors became concerned for her health, Buckingham Palace says.

"Following further evaluation this morning, the Queen's doctors are concerned for Her Majesty's health and have recommended she remain under medical supervision," they said in a statement.

"The Queen remains comfortable and at Balmoral."

Her immediate family has been informed.

The announcement comes after the Queen, 96, pulled out of a virtual Privy Council on Wednesday, with doctors advising her to rest.

Breaking news BBC

We very much hope she is okay, it made me feel sad to read this. I think the line her immediate family have been informed was a worrying line.

The second most tracked flight is from Italy, is this where Harry is coming from?

The bbc website home page has black surrounds - it's usually red

Harry was in Germany and was meant to be in London later, so unlikely to be him

Lack of clarity about whether it is the royal family or household on BBC

The BBC have suspended the TV until 6pm. That says to me that she has gone and all the preparations are being put in place.

What nothing on? I've just popped out .

There's a very interesting article someone popped on Twitter about what will happen, all the arrangements etc. This really is history in the making (again)

Where's Cliff Richard? The country needs him.

LookItsMeAgain · 08/09/2022 15:37

You can actually follow that flight on FlightRadar24 on your mobile phone.
The things you can do today that you couldn't at the start of Her Majesty's reign.

bigbluebus · 08/09/2022 15:37

They haven't landed at Aberdeen Airport yet and it's an hour's drive to Balmoral from there so can't imagine the announcement is imminent.

Yeah - roll out Sir Cliff!

We're all going on a summer holiday.....woops! 😆

stillherenow · 08/09/2022 15:38

Who is coming from Italy then? Guess it could be any of her children.

Thanks @LadyKenya

Fun fact, I can see from the dropdown box when I chose your name to @ that there are five posters named 'Lady' on this thread. Which is quite appropriate.

@FabbyO by name starts with Lady but it’s a Game of Thrones name so not sure what that says about me 😂.

JubileeTissues · 08/09/2022 15:38

"I have been preparing my children - as I did not want this to feel like another thunder bolt (like covid) in their lives. As the fallout of the Queen passing will be bigger for many people than even covid. She has been our rock, our steadfast rock in all of the troubles for so many decades, no matter what happened we always had the Queen to rely on."

Bit much.

Mine does. On safari, not sure about other browsers. Maybe their IT team went a bit overboard😵‍💫

Princess Beatrice has an Italian husband - perhaps they were in Italy?

roratone · 08/09/2022 15:39

Lots of helicopters waiting at that airport on flight tracker

Wearpantsffs · 08/09/2022 15:40

Id have thought they’d go via helicopter

Regalhen · 08/09/2022 15:40

Sorry the privacy statement is black, it's usually red isn't it? When i first looked just now there was a black text box edging to some stories but that isn't there now

The Queen is under 'medical supervision'
AllTheCarsForMe · 08/09/2022 15:40
