Yes, I do. Queen Elizabeth has always been an absolute stickler for following royal protocol. The queen in the above photo is somewhat hunched over and looks like she's got a bit of a dowager's hump. Yes, I realize she's 95, but the Queen is always erect when she stands. Go back and look at other pictures of her from past events. The only time she's used a cane was after injuring her foot. Once her foot was better, the cane disappeared. Now, suddenly, she brought the cane back out...for a very short time. In the above photos it is gone. Why? If she really needed it, she'd still be using it. Was it being used to condition people to think she was getting old...and perhaps nearing the end?? Her outfit in the above photo is below her normal standards. It is very rare that you see the Queen in anything other than solid colors. Prints are regarded as more informal. The fit of her dress seems off to me. She's got the money. Her clothing should be impeccably tailored, but it's rather baggy, as though it doesn't exactly fit her.
Also, she's carrying a purse -- in her own home? This seems odd. Her face doesn't look quite like her, either. Just my observations. I could be wrong.
