The Queen: Monarch rests more as her condition is not ‘ideal’
The Queen has been spending her summer at Balmoral with her family as she faces mobility issues which makes things challenging for her.
Her Majesty was last seen in public on July 21 when she arrived at Aberdeen airport. However, ever since then she hasn’t been seen in public and even made some of the traditional rituals smaller and private owing to her mobility issues.

Family visits
As Her Majesty struggles with her health, she is thrilled to be spending her time at Balmoral with her family. Many of the Queen’s great-grandchildren have been visiting her to spend time with her. Prince Andrew has been living in the main house itself, while Prince Charles makes daily visits to his mother.
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge along with their kids–Princes George and Louis and Princess Charlotte– headed up to the Scottish estate last week. Meanwhile, the Earl and Countess of Wessex and their children Lady Louise and Viscount James also paid a visit to their great-grandmother during the summer break.
