The Queen's children and grandchildren including William and Harry are at her bedside today - or racing to get to Balmoral - after doctors revealed they are 'concerned' for her health.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex were scheduled to attend the WellChild Awards in London this evening but the couple have changed their plans at the 11th hour and are heading to Aberdeenshire, their spokesman confirmed, as millions of Britons and Her Majesty's subjects around the world pray for her recovery.
The Queen is under medical supervision - but is described as 'comfortable' - after her doctors examined her this morning, hours after she was asked to rest instead of attending a meeting of the Privy Council last night.
A royal spokesman 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.'
Her 'immediate family' were informed, Buckingham Palace revealed, with her heir, the Prince of Wales, and his wife Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, rushing to her bedside from their Scottish home Birkhall - around 10 miles from Balmoral.
The Duke of Cambridge then flew up from Windsor to be with the 96-year-old monarch. But his wife Kate remains at Adelaide Cottage because George, Charlotte and Louis are having their first full day at school today.
The Queen's children are all rushing to Balmoral with the Princess Royal, Princess Anne, already there after an engagement in Scotland this week.
The Duke of York and the Earl and Countess of Wessex are also on their way with one of the Royal Family's helicopters seen landing in the grounds this lunchtime.
And this afternoon, Harry and Meghan, who are in the middle of a pseudo royal tour of Europe, changed their plans to travel to see the Queen.
A statement about the monarch's health is exceptionally rare and suggests the situation is very serious. And experts said it is all the more worrying because all her children - and Prince William and Prince Harry - are either already by her side or en route.
Royal biographer Nigel Cawthorne said: 'It leads us to believe the situation is much more serious than we've been told'.

It's hard to fathom the percentage of people who have never known anything but a Queen of England. That will then instantly switch and it will be all Kings in England for as long as anyone alive is still here (in the normal course of things).
