Queen Elizabeth II, the reigning constitutional monarch of the U.K. and its Commonwealth realms, has died at the age of 96.“The Queen died peacefully at Balmoral this afternoon,” the palace said in a statement on Thursday, September 8. “The King and The Queen Consort will remain at Balmoral this evening and will return to London tomorrow.”Shortly before her death, Buckingham Palace announced that the queen was “under medical supervision” after opting out of multiple public engagements. “Following further evaluation this morning, The Queen’s doctors are concerned for Her Majesty’s health and have recommended she remain under medical supervision,” the September 8 statement read. “The Queen remains comfortable and at Balmoral.”Several royal correspondents reported that Prince William, Prince Charles and Duchess Camilla were on their way to Balmoral, Scotland, to see the monarch.

A spokesperson for Prince Harry  confirmed that he was traveling there as well as Meghan Markle remained in London.Earlier that month, Elizabeth chose to stay in Scotland to formally appoint Britain’s new prime minister, Liz Truss, instead of returning to London.

At the time, the queen’s “mobility issues” prevented her from completing her travels back to Windsor Castle.Three months prior, the queen celebrated her Platinum Jubilee, which marked her historic 70 years of service.

Though she viewed the Trooping the Colour parade from the Buckingham Palace balcony with some of her loved ones in June, the monarch later chose not to attend the Service of Thanksgiving after experiencing “discomfort.” She previously missed a royal engagement — the opening day of British Parliament — due to mobility issues.As the Platinum Jubilee festivities came to a close,
