She looked very frail in the pics speaking to Truss the other day.

So if 7 members of the Royal Family are still travelling, I doubt we'll hear much more until later tonight.

If she has had cancer, she has a right to keep it private if she wishes. I can’t help feeling she’s been desperately holding on to make sure Johnson wasn’t the one to address the nation and oversee the funeral. I assume the details of what they are expected to do has worked its way to near the top of an incoming PM’s initial briefing in recent years.

Poor thing, being forced to see Boris and Liz T when she’s in this sort of condition.
I’ll be really sad if indeed this is the final few days for her, with everyone descending and the statement then it does feel like it perhaps is. She’s the only member of the royal family that I feel any sort of admiration for. |

There was a deleted tweet of the announcement of her death from a BBC spokesperson
. How sad.

If I recall correctly the official announcement will be when a noticeboard is placed outside the Queen's residence, giving the details. She may wish to break that tradition but that was the established manner

Really believe this is a when not if situation. Sounds remarkably more serious than at other times and of course the travel of all the family up to Aberdeenshire is quite the giveaway. After all, no one would voluntarily travel to Aberdeen

The Aberdeen accent is lovely. No idea about the place itself.

It's a shame she didn't reach 100, or the same age as Queen's Mother. Unfortunately we will now have kings till, probably, th3 sbolition of the monarchy. |

Talk about ending on a low if her last meeting was yesterday! (sorry sorry, too soon x)
This has felt sadly inevitable for most of the year now, what with Covid and Phillip's death, this must have been a very hard couple of years for her :'( |

Covid seems to have taken a heavy toll as does Phillip's death, you're right. I was hoping a year or two in Scotland, away from Lonson, would have helped. Then again, she had the huge Jubilee celwbrations too, which must have been tiring.

I’m no royalist by any means but the Queen has always had a strong sense of duty and I imagine she wouldn’t be too happy to be leaving the country in the state that it is. So much so that it’s a shame now seems to be the time.

As others have said I oppose the monarchy but feel for her as a person.
With the family coming to be together she must be in her final days I would say. I am always fascinated by how long her life has been and how much history she has travelled through. I mean Churchill was her first PM and he was born in 1874, shows how long back some people alive can go! |

(sorry sorry, too soon x) This has felt sadly inevitable for most of the year now, what with Covid and Phillip's death, this must have been a very hard couple of years for her :'( There are lots of rumours about there, but I really do wonder if yesterday was such an exhaustive day on her both mentally and physically that her body just caved in and could not cope. I think people forget she is 96 years old - I know she feels a sense of duty as the head of state, but it must have been such an exhausting day. Agree this feels very much like a when not an if. There are rumours she has passed and they are waiting for Harry to arrive, but not sure that is the case. I could envision a scenario where they keep it under wraps if it happens later this evening/early morning and announce it first thing. |
