Platinum Jubilee: the queen will also miss the Derby

(ANSA) – LONDON, June 03 – Queen Elizabeth will also follow tomorrow’s horse Derby, included among the Platinum Jubilee celebrations, on television from her residence in Windsor Castle. She announced it Buckingham Palace, after the 96-year-old sovereign had to renounce already today the presence in person at the thanksgiving liturgy for her long reign officiated in St Paul’s Cathedral, being represented by her heir Charles. The participation in the Derby had been left pending in the official programs, unlike the one in the church, which was scheduled and was canceled due to the fatigue endured yesterday by the sovereign.
