The Queen's close family have all headed up to Balmoral in Aberdeenshire where she is under medical supervision with concerns for her health. Prince Charles and Camilla, Prince William, Princess Anne, Prince Edward and Prince Andrew have all been called to the royal Scottish estate.
However, Kate Middleton has remained in Windsor as Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis are on their first full day at their new school, Kensington Palace said.
The Duchess of Cornwall had been scheduled to open a new visitor centre for the Great Tapestry of Scotland in Galashiels, in the Scottish Borders, on Friday. But a royal spokesperson said that both she and the Prince of Wales had travelled to Balmoral, and it was “looking more likely” that the engagement would no longer go ahead.
