FEARS for the Queen are growing after the monarch suffered another setback and missed the Remembrance Sunday service over the weekend.

Buckingham Palace announced Her Majesty has sprained her back and was "disappointed" that missed the annual service.

The Palace statement read: "The Queen, having sprained her back, has decided this morning with great regret that she will not be able to attend today's Remembrance Sunday Service at the Cenotaph."

However, some fear there is more to the story. 

Piers Morgan took to Twitter to share his concerns. He tweeted saying that it might be more of a "serious situation" than is being made by palace officials and "there's something we're not being told" about her health.

    The royal procedures that will be put in place when Prince Charles becomes king

    It is expected that in the hours following the Queen’s death, an “Accession Council” will convene at St. James’s Palace, London, to formally recognise the transition and to proclaim Charles as the monarch.

    The Accession Council consists of the group of advisers to the sovereign known as the Privy Council.

    Prince Charles will then meet with the Prime Minister and address the nation after the news has been broken to the public by the BBC.

    A twelve-day period of national mourning will ensue.

    All parliamentary business will be suspended for ten days – with the exception of MPs giving tribute in the House of Commons, as they did with Prince Philip in April this year.

    Camilla fought to make sure myths about Prince Charles were debunked

    According to royal expert Richard Kay, Camilla was "frustrated" to see false myths about her husband Prince Charles remaining "unchallenged".

    Richard said: "Of these the most eccentric was that at breakfast, seven eggs each boiled to a different degree of softness were set before him so that he could choose the one with the right consistency.

    "While hardly the most egregious of fables, she was frustrated that this and other misleading beliefs about the man she loves were allowed to remain unchallenged."

    Sally Morgan received a phone call from the Duke of Sussex around eight years ago while he was in an on/off relationship with Cressida Bonas.

    Harry asked the TV psychic about how his future wife would look and received a description matching Meghan, who he first met in 2016.

    Sally told the Mirror: "One of the sweetest things he said to me was, ‘What colour hair will my future wife have? Will she have blonde hair?’

    "I said he would marry someone with dark hair.”

    Yesterday’s ceremony was a far cry from last year

    Yesterday’s ceremony was a far cry from last year when the  Covid lockdown meant only a few were allowed to remember the many.

    In 2020, just 148 service personnel were on duty, while this year 718 were present.

    Among them was L/Cpl Mae Percival, 22, who three months ago helped rescue 15,000 Brits and  Afghans in the chaos of the  Kabul airlift.

    She said: “In the two-minute silence, I was thinking about the 13 US Marines who died in the Kabul operation. Nothing prepares you for the things we saw there.”

    Tim Farmiloe was the oldest veteran at 98 on parade as he made his first appearance at the Cenotaph.  

    He said: “I found it very moving.”

    Cenotaph 'not the same' without Queen

    Former Warrant Officer Colin Veal, 63, who served in Northern Ireland, the Gulf, Bosnia and Afghanistan, said: “God Save the Queen was all the more poignant because she wasn’t there.

    "When I joined the Army in 1974, the Queen was the boss. I’m a veteran now and she’s still the boss.”

    Colin, of Coalville, Leics, added: “To every one of us who have served Queen and country, there’s something special about having her here.

    “It is not the same without her.”

    War veterans wish absent Queen ‘get well soon’ amid health fears

    AMID the sombre reflection for the Fallen, Britain’s Armed Forces sent a get well message to the Queen.

    As they gathered in Whitehall waiting for the traditional two-minute silence at 11am on Sunday, whispered words spread among the 10,000 who fought for Queen and country that their sovereign was too ill to attend this year.

    So, after Prince Charles and other members of the Royal Family had laid their wreaths for the nation’s glorious dead, the huge crowd sang God Save the Queen louder and with more gusto than ever before.

    World War Two radar operator Leonard Hobbs, 97, said: “It was as if they were singing for the Queen to get better. She has been a good Queen and I hope she gets better soon.”

      Queen suffers 'setback amid heightened public anxiety for her health'

      The nation’s anxiety over the Queen’s health will be heightened as the monarch suffered another setback and missed the Remembrance Sunday service, a royal author has said.

      Penny Junor suggested Elizabeth II was entering a new phase of her reign when she would not be seen as much in public.

      Ms Junor said: “It’s very sad for the Queen because this is the one event in the year that she really, really likes to be at.

      “Remembering the war dead is a very, very important part for her annual calendar.

      “The public will be very sad and anxious to hear of yet another setback but clearly she must follow the advice and get herself well.”

      How many times has the Queen missed service during her reign?

      Her Majesty has missed the event just six times during her reign – either when pregnant or away on tour.

      The monarch regards the poignant service as one of the most significant engagements of the year.

      It is understood the sprain is recent and unrelated to her medics’ advice to rest.

      Sources say there were concerns over how a car journey to London and a period of standing could impact her injury.

      One said it is “incredibly unfortunate timing and nobody regrets her absence today more deeply than her Majesty herself”.

      She will now remain at Windsor Castle and does not require hospital treatment.

      It is understood she plans to continue with her schedule of light duties over the next week.

      When Harry met Sally (Morgan)

      PRINCESS Diana’s psychic made a spooky prediction about Meghan Markle to Prince Harry years before the royal even met his wife.

      Sally Morgan received a phone call from the Duke of Sussex around eight years ago while he was in an on/off relationship with Cressida Bonas.

      “I said he would marry someone with dark hair.”

      Sally says the royal also asked about his “bruv” Prince William during the phone call and if he was going to be “OK”.

      She responded: “Of course he is. He will be good and he will be king, but he is in a different bubble to you.”

      Harry reportedly replied: “That is why I am always going to worry about him”.

      Meghan Markle was warned to not pursue bitter court battle

      SENIOR royals warned Meghan Markle not to pursue her bitter court battle over a leaked letter to her estranged father and feel she has now “been found out”, it’s reported.

      The Duchess of Sussex was forced to apologise to the court for “forgetting” to tell the judge about emails showing her attempts to influence a biography about her and Prince Harry.

      Senior royals warned Meghan Markle not to pursue bitter court battle and now she’s ‘been found out

      And Meghan’s sensational texts to her former press secretary accusing the royals of “constantly berating” Prince Harry over her estranged dad’s actions were also shared in court.

      The Mail on Sunday newspaper revealed explosive new evidence as it tried to overturn an earlier ruling that it had breached Meghan’s privacy and copyright by disclosing details of her letter to dad Thomas, 77. 

      But The Sunday Times claims family members and one trusted lawyer all advised the Duchess of Sussex, 40, to drop the case, saying they are “frustrated” by the fall-out. 

      A royal source told the newspaper: “There is frustration all the way to the top, because a lot of people told them that it was unwise to proceed with the case.  Now you have been found out. “They [the royal family] will think they should never have taken it to court.”

      What did Buckingham Palace say about The Queen?

      The monarch had missed the Festival of Remembrance last night but aides said it was her “firm intention” to attend today’s service.

      But Buckingham Palace said in a statement: “The Queen, having sprained her back, has decided this morning with great regret that she will not be able to attend today’s Remembrance Sunday Service at the Cenotaph.

      “Her Majesty is disappointed that she will miss the service.

      “As in previous years, a wreath will be laid on Her Majesty’s behalf by the Prince of Wales.

      “His Royal Highness, along with the Duchess of Cornwall, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, the Earl and Countess of Wessex, the Princess Royal and Vice Admiral Sir Tim Laurence, the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester, the Duke of Kent and Princess Alexandra will be present at the Cenotaph today as planned.”

      ‘Her Majesty disappointed that she missed the service’

      The Queen was recently advised to step back from official duties by medics after an overnight stay in hospital.

      Royal doctors sent the 95-year-old sovereign to be seen by specialists in London on Wednesday, October 20, 2021.

      The Monarch was discharged from hospital on Thursday, October 21, 2021 — with Buckingham Palace saying she was in “good spirits” after “preliminary investigations” during her visit to hospital.

      It was believed her medical team acted out of caution to have her admitted to King Edward VII hospital in Marylebone on Wednesday, October 20.

      And the overnight stay — her first in a hospital for eight years — was for practical reasons.

      Just a day later Her Maj, 95, was understood to be back at her desk at Windsor Castle.

      Queen absent as war dead remembered at Cenotaph yesterday

      Members of the royal family and senior politicians led the nation in honouring the country’s war dead on Remembrance Sunday.

      Buckingham Palace announced on Sunday morning that the Queen would be absent from the service at the Cenotaph in central London due to having sprained her back.

      The event on Whitehall was given added poignancy by a return to pre-pandemic numbers of participating veterans and military, as well as onlookers.

      The Prince of Wales and Prime Minister are among those laying a wreath at the war memorial for the National Service of Remembrance.

      Boris Johnson said it was a moment to “come together to remember those who sacrificed everything in service of our country”.

      The palace said the Queen made the decision not to attend “with great regret” and is “disappointed” to miss it.

      Service personnel attending the ceremony at the Cenotaph wished the Queen well.

      Prime Minister Boris Johnson appeared sombre as he laid a wreath at the Cenotaph on Remembrance Sunday yesterday.

      Only the rustling of leaves and the chirping of birds could be heard as thousands of people held the two-minute silence in honour of all those who have lost their lives in conflict.

      Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer stood beside the Prime Minister while former prime ministers lined up behind Mr Johnson, with John Major, Tony Blair, Gordon Brown, David Cameron and Theresa May all paying their respects.

      What did Jason Knauf say in his witness statement?

      Knauf has suggested that Meghan hand-wrote a letter to her estranged father, Thomas Markle, knowing it may be leaked to the press.

      In his witness statement, Knauf said: "When the Duchess was considering how to handle Mr Markle's increasing public interventions – both for concerns about his welfare and also to protect her reputation – she explored options for written communication that might convince him to stop giving interviews, but that could also set the record straight if he gave them to the media."

      He recalled, "She asked me to review an electronic draft of the letter saying, 'obviously everything I have drafted is with the understanding that it could be leaked so I have been meticulous in my word choice but please do let me know if anything stands out for you as a liability'.

      "She also asked a specific question regarding addressing Mr Markle as 'daddy' in the letter, saying 'given I've only ever called him daddy it may make sense to open as such (despite him being less than paternal), and in the unfortunate event that it leaked it would pull at the heartstrings'."

      Why did Thomas Markle thank Jason Knauf?

      Following Knauf's witness statement, Thomas Markle appeared on GB News to say he was happy the truth about her was finally coming out.

      Discussing Meghan's recent legal battle with Associated Newspaper, Mr Markle spoke with host Dan Wootton.

      The GB News host asked how Mr Markle felt about following the revelation she prepared for her letter written to him to be leaked and changed the way she wrote it in expectation.

      Mr Markle said "thank god for Jason Knauf" before saying he would treat him to a steak as a way of showing his gratitude.

      Explained: Who is Jason Knauf?

      Knauf joined Kensington Palace in 2015 and became the communications secretary for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.

      Known to be a trusted staffer, he even was asked to help with private letters to Meghan Markle's family.

      Knauf was working for the royals at the time the allegations against the newspaper publisher were made.

      Two months after Meghan asked for his feedback on the famous private letter to her father, Knauf turned his back on her and is said to be the person who submitted the bullying allegations to the HR department in October 2018.

      The claims were raised to HR in a bid to get Buckingham Palace to protect the staff that Knauf alleged were coming under pressure from the Duchess.

      A source told The Times that Prince Harry had pleaded with Knauf not to pursue the bullying allegations.
