Summoning the entire British Royal Family to the Palace of balmoralin Scotland, where Queen Elizabeth II died Thursday (8) aged 96had since morning given a more serious tone to the state of the monarch’s health.

First, Buckingham Palace said the Queen’s health was of concern to her doctors:

“Following a further assessment this morning, the Queen’s doctors are concerned for Her Majesty’s health and have recommended that she remains under medical supervision. The Queen remains comfortable and at Balmoral,” a spokesperson said.

According to correspondents for affairs involving the royal family from outlets such as the BBC and The Guardian, this chain of events suggests there is a more serious factor in the situation than simply monitoring the monarch’s health.

The BBC, the UK’s public television and radio network, has suspended all programming until 6 p.m. (local time) to follow the latest news concerning the Queen.

We are in a situation that is unfolding. All in all, it’s a very dark time.

This comment is about the Queen’s cancellation of appointments on Wednesday precisely because of her health condition. Elizabeth is said to have a virtual meeting with ministers, but doctors have advised her to ‘rest’.

The day before, the Queen attended an important and crucial public event: the appointment of Liz Truss as the new Prime Minister and the official deposition of Boris Johnson. Both traveled to Balmoral Palace to perform the rite, which traditionally takes place in Buckingham.

An unexpected detail caught the eye during the ceremony: a very apparent bruise, with a purplish tone, on one of the Queen’s hands in the photos of her meeting with Truss.

Anthony Seldon, historian of the British royal family, told SkyNews that the moment is “obviously worrying” and that it is not possible to speculate on his state of health, but that it is a situation “serious enough so that his children and grandchildren are at his side”.

Notices have been posted saying that Elizabeth’s four children – Charles (first in line), Anne, Andrew and Edward – were already with their mother at Balmoral Palace. The Queen’s grandchildren, such as Princes William and Harry, have also been summoned.
