The death certificate of Her Royal Majesty, late Queen Elizabeth ll, has revealed the cause of death of the 96-year-old monarch who passed on at Balmoral Castle on Thursday, September 8, at 3.10pm, hours before the public was informed.
The death certificate, released by National Records of Scotland, cited the late Queen died of ‘old age’. The informant of her death was the Princess Royal, Queen Elizabeth II’s daughter Princess Anne.
The time of death on the historic document, which gives the monarch’s occupation as ‘Her Majesty The Queen’, means that only King Charles and his only sister were by their mother’s side when she died in Aberdeenshire three weeks ago today.
Prince William, Prince Andrew, Prince Edward and his wife, Sophie Countess of Wessex, were in the air when the Queen passed away. They had been racing to Balmoral and took off from RAF Northolt in South Ruislip, West London, at 2.39 pm, landing an hour later.
Prince Harry was not on the plane with his brother and had to make his own journey to Scotland on a jet from Luton, after his grandmother had died. He landed in Aberdeen at 6.46pm, 16 minutes after the Palace made its announcement.
Douglas James Allan Glass is noted as the certifying registered medical practitioner. Dr Glass is a GP from the Highlands Village of Aboyne, around 20 miles from Balmoral.
It would be recalled that The New Diplomat had reported in a video news of how Elizabeth II and Husband Philip were reunited at the Royal Vault.
