REBECCA ENGLISH: When I saw William this week, he looked like he'd the weight of the world on his shoulders. But he's proving what a class act he is | Daily Mail Online
To summarise, all of the Queen's children - Charles, Anne, Edward, Andrew - are either at the Queen's bedside or travelling to be with her. Her grandson, Prince William, is also in Scotland. This is as grave as it gets, I am so sorry to say.
The Princess of Wales is wearing a dress by Jenny Packham, the Lover’s Knot tiara, the Royal Family Order, and the GCVO Star and Sash, a bracelet belonging to the late Queen and earrings belonging to the late Princess of Wales.
I have to say, Princess Anne - as Colonel of the Blues and Royals - looks pretty magnificent with her horse Sir John at Horse Guards Parade during Trooping The Colour - she’s 71 and been sitting ram-rod straight for almost the last hour

The Queen has arrived at Sandringham where she will mark her 96th birthday tomorrow in a typically low-key, unfussy way.
