Queen Elizabeth II has been worrying the British about her mobility problems for several months. She will also not participate in the Highland Games, having recently missed several events.

Buckingham Palace recently confirmed that Queen Elizabeth II would not travel to London to inaugurate the successor to outgoing Prime Minister Boris Johnson. Now the next cancellation follows: The monarch recalls the famous Highland Games in Bremer, Scotland, a traditional event with sporting events.

Instead, the heir to the throne, Prince Charles, has been asked to attend Saturday’s event. According to media reports, the reason for the cancellation of Badshah must be the mobility problems of the 96-year-old. She had already struggled with these in the past few months, many times she was seen carrying a cane.

Tradition at Balmoral Castle

The queen usually takes a seat in the VIP box in competition, which involves a log throw while wearing a kilt. The event is part of the standard schedule of her stay in Scotland in the summer, when she traditionally spends her summer vacation at Balmoral Castle in the Highlands from late July to mid-September.

The inconvenience in walking is also the reason why the Queen will be coming from Balmoral in the coming week with the upcoming change in government. Both Johnson and his successor are due to visit Scotland early next week.
