Queen Elizabeth II to miss opening of Parliament, delegates Prince Charles
Queen Elizabeth II delivers her speech in the House of Lords during the opening of Parliament last year. LONDON — There are a few dates on a British monarch’s royal calendar that are circled in red, and the state opening of Parliament is one of them. But on Monday night, less than 24 hours before the big event, Buckingham Palace announced that Queen Elizabeth II would not be attending because of health issues.
This time, in her stead, Prince Charles will be the first heir to the throne in modern history to star at the main ceremonial event of the parliamentary year. This will also be the first time Prince William, second in line to the throne, will attend.
