It has been confirmed today that the Queen will not be attending this year's Easter morning church service.
The royals usually attend the Easter Mattins Service at St George's Chapel in Windsor each year. But it was announced today, April 14, that the monarch is not expected to be among them this year.
Royal sources have said that Her Majesty has been suffering from mobility problems in recent months and feels she can not commit to the service this weekend. She is set to celebrate her 96th birthday next week ahead of her Platinum Jubilee in June.
