Queen Elizabeth II has withdrawn from a second Platinum Jubilee event. <\/p>\n

Buckingham Palace announced Friday that the 96-year-old monarch will not attend Saturday’s Epsom Derby amid her health issues.<\/p>\n

This will be only the third time over the course of the Queen’s unprecedented 70-year reign that she has missed the horse race in Surrey, England.<\/p>\n

Rather than make her way to the ceremony, she will watch the event on television from Windsor Castle, the palace told the BBC.<\/p>\n

The Queen previously canceled her scheduled appearance at Friday’s National Service of Thanksgiving at St. Paul’s Cathedral in London, citing the \u201cdiscomfort\u201d she felt during her Trooping the Color birthday parade Thursday afternoon.<\/p>\n

While the lady of the hour was not physically present at church Friday morning, royal family members including Prince William and Kate Middleton, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, Prince Charles and Camilla Parker Bowles, and Princess Anne were all in attendance.<\/p>\n

Together, they recognized the Queen’s position as a spiritual leader and head of the Church of England.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
