According to The Daily Mail, they are also cutting down on The Queen's travel, after she admitted to feeling frail by joking "'as you can see, I can't move' during a recent engagement with two Defence Services Secretaries."

Buckingham Palace will be occupied by Prince Charles and Camilla when they eventually become King and Queen Consort upon the Queen's passing.

The Queen now holds her weekly meetings with Prime Minister Boris Johnson by telephone rather than in person - this has been the case throughout much of the pandemic, The Daily Mail shares.
