The Duchess of Cambridge,
along with her husband, Prince William, went along to a reception held at
Guildhall by the former Lord Mayor where she spoke to an attendee who asked how
Her Majesty was doing.
The attendee, named Gill
Smallwood from Bolton, told PA that Kate had said in response to her query:
“Yes, she [the Queen] was fine, it was just very tiring yesterday”
before adding that the monarch “had a lovely, lovely time.”
On Thursday evening, it was
announced by Buckingham Palace that the Queen would not be attending Friday’s
scheduled events for her Platinum Jubilee due to feeling
“discomfort”.
A statement explained that Her
Majesty “greatly enjoyed her birthday celebration and the flypast in
London during the Trooping the Colour parade.”
