Prince Charles' 'last-minute call convinced Queen to appear at Jubilee finale'

ok.co.uk:

Prince Charles reportedly made a 'last-minute call' to the Queen to convince her to attend the final part of the Jubilee celebrations.

The Queen missed out on a number of events over the Jubilee weekend, including the service of thanksgiving at St Paul's Cathedral and the Epsom Derby due to ongoing mobility issues, with the monarch reportedly feeling 'discomfort' after her appearance at the Trooping of the Colour on Thursday 2nd June.

But an insider has now revealed that the Queen was also set to miss the grand finale of the Platinum Jubilee, which left her 'tearful and overwhelmed with emotion', but her son, Charles, stepped in at the last minute to convince her otherwise.
