Now, the Queen's immediate family are travelling to Scotland to visit her.
Clarence House and Kensington Palace have now confirmed that Prince Charles, Camilla the Duchess of Cornwall and Prince William are on their way to Balmoral.
The news from Buckingham Palace comes a day after it was announced that the Queen had to cancel the Privy Council meeting after doctors told her to rest.
At the time, the Palace said: "After a full day yesterday, Her Majesty has this afternoon accepted doctors' advice to rest.
"This means that the Privy Council meeting that had been due to take place this evening will be rearranged."
The day before, the Queen was pictured for the first time in months at her Balmoral residence as she met with new Prime Minister Liz Truss.
The meeting of a new Prime Minister usually happens at Buckingham Palace, however, the decision was made that the Queen would stay in Scotland, where she has been for her summer break, and that former PM Boris Johnson and new PM Liz Truss would meet with her there instead.
The Queen has been suffering from mobility issues recently, which has caused her to rely on a walking stick for some royal engagements.
Earlier in the year, the Queen attended Chelsea Flower Show in a buggy which took her around all the displays.
Recently, Prince Charles and other members of the Royal Family have been attending engagements on behalf of the Queen due to these mobility problems.
