The British Prime Minister Boris Johnson said that the Queen of England is in good health. He stressed that doctors advised the monarch to rest for around weeks.
The Queen, who spent a night in the hospital last week for “preliminary examinations”, has since followed medical advice to recover and has done only light work.
She also cancelled a 2-day trip to Northern Ireland last week, while her presentation at the upcoming COP26 UN climate convention, which begins on Sunday in Scotland, was also cancelled.
Following the latest consultation, Buckingham Palace said on Friday that it would continue to perform desk-based tasks in some virtual audiences but no official visits in the next two weeks.
“I have spoken to Her Majesty, and she is in very good shape,” Johnson told UK Channel 4 broadcaster Rome, where he is attending a weekend G20 summit.
“She is just suggested to follow the directions of her medical professionals and take some rest” said Johnson.
Britain’s longest-serving Queen is set to celebrate her platinum anniversary to mark 70 years on the chair in 2022 and is known for his constant devotion to royal duties, is rare.
Buckingham Palace said in its latest declaration that it remains on its “firm intention” to take part in the National Remembrance Service for British war veterans on November 14.
The Queen first took a step back from work on October 20, the day after a reception for world-class businessmen at Windsor Castle, where she spoke with Johnson and US billionaire Bill Gates.
She spent the next night in hospital, her first since 2013, police officials said for practical reasons after “preliminary investigations” were in an unspecified matter.
The monarch had until recently appeared in strong form in public, despite the loss of her 99-year-old husband, Prince Philip in April.
She has been participating in official engagements almost every day, similar to her pre-pandemic workload, since her traditional summer vacation in Balmoral, Scotland.
But she recently made headlines after being spotted with a rod, and The Sun Tabloid reported that she also stopped going with her corgis.
The Queen is reported to have stopped riding her horse, a great passion, although she plans to pick it up again after resting.
The monarch will likely “make fewer personal appearances and make more on video,” royal expert Penny Junor told AFP earlier this week.
“And wherever she performs, I would think it will be as a spectator rather than at receptions, where she has to create a space and meet dozens of people.”
