Royals arrive in Scotland to be with Queen

Members of the Royal family have arrived in Scotland, as they prepare to gather by her side at Balmoral.

A flight containing members of the royal family landed at Aberdeen airport ahead of their anticipated arrival at Balmoral. Royal Air Force flight KRF23R took off from RAF Northolt in South Ruislip, west London, at 2.39pm, according to flight tracking website Flightradar24.com. The Dassault Falcon landed at the Scottish airport at 3.50pm.

The plane was carrying the Duke of Cambridge, the Duke of York and the Earl and Countess of Wessex. The BBC reported that it was carrying up to seven royals and that it may also be carrying the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.

The Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall had already travelled to Balmoral, Clarence House said earlier. The Princess Royal was also already at Balmoral, and the Duke of York and the Earl and Countess of Wessex were reported to be on their way to the Queen’s Scottish home, sources said.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have cancelled a planned appearance and will now be travelling to Scotland, as the Royal family gathers around the Queen in Balmoral.

Earlier, a Palace spokesperson said: “Following further evaluation this morning, the Queen’s doctors are concerned for Her Majesty’s health and have recommended she remain under medical supervision. The Queen remains comfortable and at Balmoral.”

The Queen’s immediate family members were informed, with the latest announcement escalating fears for the monarch’s health.
