Buckingham Palace has announced the Queen will miss the royal garden party season, but chose not to explain her absence. Instead a spokesperson for the Palace said other members of the royal family would be standing in for the monarch.
The spokesperson said: “Her Majesty the Queen will be represented by other members of the royal family at this year’s garden parties, with details on attendance to be confirmed in due course.”
In October the Queen spent the night in hospital with doctor's giving her strict instructions to rest. Since then she has only attended two major events with the public.
