Queen Elizabeth has withdrawn from another royal occasion. According to Buckingham Palace sources, the monarch will miss the forthcoming traditional Easter Maundy Thursday church service. It is understood that the Queen will be represented by Prince Charles and Camilla at the event, set to hold at St George’s Chapel in Windsor. This announcement means that Brits will not get to see the monarch dispense special Maundy funds to pensioners.

The Easter Maundy Thursday church service is a special occasion in the royal schedule. In the absence of his mother, the Prince of Wales will get the opportunity to dispense Maundy’s money to pensioners for the very first time. This is also the first time the Maundy Thursday service is holding in two years as the last two events were called off over coronavirus fears.

Over the last couple of months, Queen Elizabeth has not turned up for numerous prestigious royal functions. The monarch even skipped the Commonwealth Day service due to health concerns. It is understood that she will not be at the Easter Maundy Thursday church service due to concerns over the long travel distance.
The Queen is reportedly not in the best condition to complete the long trip from her home to London where the event will hold. Despite growing concerns over her health, Queen Elizabeth showed up at the memorial service of her deceased spouse, Prince Philip which was held at Westminster Abbey.
The monarch is reportedly conducting royal affairs from her home via online meetings. Meanwhile, royal expert Camilla Tominey claims that the monarch will provide a means where she can receive people in her living room.
Speaking in a recent interview, Camilla said, “I think we’re going to see more of the Queen in situ, and she might get to where she needs to be in private and then be photographed on the spot. That being said, we had some lovely photographs last week of an audience in her own living room. That’s going to be happening more frequently now.”
