A Jubilee without The Queen in attendance? Such a scenario has historical precedence...
19th April 2022
Recent reports that The Queen will only confirm her attendance at events on the day have led to questions, again, about whether she will be at the Jubilee festivities taking place in June to mark her 70 year reign. And while the idea of Her Majesty not being there might seem strange to us, a celebration led by the Royal Family while the Monarch stays at Windsor would be an exact replica of…
