The Duke of York will not attend the Queen's Platinum Jubilee service of thanksgiving after testing positive for Covid, it has been confirmed. Prince Andrew was set to join the wider Royal family at the high-profile event in St Paul’s Cathedral on Friday.
A Buckingham Palace spokesman said: “After undertaking a routine test The Duke has tested positive for Covid and with regret will no longer be attending tomorrow’s service.”
It is understood Andrew saw the Queen in the last few days but has been undertaking regular testing and has not seen her since he tested positive. In March, he was by his mum's side during a memorial service for the Duke of Edinburgh.
