The Queen opted to use a walking stick again yesterday during the Order of the Garter service

On Monday 13 June, the Royal Family released a photo of the Queen holding a walking stick during the Order of the Garter service.

The latest photo of the monarch using a walking aid comes after she was forced to miss a number of events during her Platinum Jubilee celebrations, including St Paul's Thanksgiving service , due to mobility issues. Prior to her Jubilee celebrations she had also pulled out of a number of public events over the last several months, including the Queen’s speech at Parliament - the first time she has done so in almost 60 years.

In February, the Daily Mail reported that she had decided to pay a discreet but touching tribute to her beloved by using the stick. "We have to be very careful not to say that the Queen doesn’t want to be seen in a wheelchair, because quite rightly people who are in wheelchairs will be very offended by that," she said.
