我们学到了上个月,英国女王伊丽莎白的信徒aking royal tradition (for the first time in decades) by not returning to Buckingham Palace after herannual summer breakat Balmoral Castle. However, new information aboutPrince Philip’s planshas now also come to light.

ICYMI: TheSunday Timesreported that while the 94-year-old monarch typically comes home in the autumn, that won’t be the case this year due to thecoronavirus pandemic. Instead, Queen Elizabeth will travel to Windsor Castle, which is where she’ll stay for the foreseeable future. Although she’ll commute to London for royal engagements, Her Majesty will reside at the Windsor residence until it’s deemed safe to return.

However, as it turns out, her husband won’t be headed to Windsor with Her Majesty and will stay inSandringham at Wood Farm. According toPeople, the couple’s staff is creating a “special bubble” in order for the duo to safely visit each other.

We’re not totally surprised that the couple won’t be headed to BP, since the royal family is trying to reduce the risk of exposing Queen Elizabeth toCOVID-19. Not only do they have to monitor her health while traveling, but they also have to consider the number of staff members she’ll be interacting with at each royal residence.

Still, this is the first time in years that Queen Elizabeth has changed her summer plans. She typicallydeparts for Balmoral Castlein early August and then returns to her London abode a few months later.

The royal familyhasn’t shared any details about the length of Queen Elizabeth’s stay at Windsor Castle. However, many believe she’ll steer clear of Buckingham Palace until 2021.

Fingers crossed Queen Elizabeth packed enough clothes to last through the holiday season.
