It won't be long until the grand celebrations of Queen Elizabeth's 70th jubilee.

Whether the Queen herself can take part is apparently not yet certain.

London – For weeks now, the royals have been busy promoting Queen Elizabeth's (95) platinum anniversary at home and abroad.

In June, the gigantic event in honor of the Queen will take place over several days.

According to British media reports, however, it is far from clear whether the regent herself can be present at all the essential program points.

Due to her health problems, there could be cancellations at short notice.

The countdown is on in Great Britain – from June 2nd to 5th, Queen Elizabeth's 70th anniversary will be celebrated with several activities in and around London.

In the run-up to the event, many British organizations and companies are honoring their monarch with unusual specials.

For example, the renowned fashion magazine "Vogue" chose the queen as the cover girl for its April issue.

The leather goods manufacturer Launer, which has been providing the 95-year-old with her iconic handbags for decades, is even launching its own “Jubilee Bag”.

The Royal Family itself is also busy promoting the Crown throughout the Commonwealth.

Kate Middleton (40) and Prince William (39) recently traveled to the Caribbean, Princess Anne (71) was with her husband Timothy Laurence (67) in Australia and Prince Charles (73) and Duchess Camilla (74) visited Canada.

Meanwhile, Queen Elizabeth is resting at Windsor Castle in order to be fit for the monumental ceremony in June.

In which program points she will take part in the end is apparently not yet certain.

In all likelihood, she will not be able to keep too many appointments.

Queen Elizabeth: The shape of the day decides which appointments she can keep

As the “Express” reports, among other things, it is spontaneously decided whether Queen Elizabeth has the strength to celebrate her own anniversary.

In the end, the 95-year-old's form on the day will decide which events she can attend.

“One must now assume that the Queen will not be present at [some] events.

If Her Majesty appears, that will be decided on the day and she will be accompanied by another member of the royal family," a source told the Telegraph.

However, every effort should be made to ensure that the Queen can definitely attend the service at Saint Paul's Cathedral, the Epsom Derby and the Trooping the Color Parade.

Most recently, Queen Elizabeth appeared in public at the memorial service for Prince Philip (99, † 2021).

At two Easter services, she was represented by other members of the Royal Family.
