At 95, Queen Elizabeth is showing signs of slowing down.
After a tumultuous year marred by the grief of losing her husband, Prince Philip, humiliation around the alleged sordid affairs of her son, Andrew, and an aggrieved relationship with her grandson, Harry, the Queen has stepped out with a walking stick in hand and a plan to cut back on royal commitments, reports The Sun.
According to the British tabloid, courtiers are working to minimise the monarch's requirements to move about in public, scrutinising her engagements to avoid cobbled steps and kerbs and eliminate any amount of lengthy walking.
The news follows alleged doctor's orders to do away with her daily tipple, a martini, and only imbibe on special occasions.
