The Queen spent Wednesday night in hospital for preliminary medical checks and is now back at Windsor Castle, Buckingham Palace has said, according to theĀ bbc.
The 95-year-old monarch returned from the private hospital in central London at lunchtime on Thursday and is “in good spirits”, the palace added.
The Queen had cancelled a visit to Northern Ireland on Wednesday.
She was given medical advice to rest for a few days after a busy schedule of public engagements.
Prime Minister Boris Johnson said “everybody sends Her Majesty our very very best wishes”.
He added he was “given to understand that actually Her Majesty is characteristically back at her desk at Windsor as we speak”.
In a statement on Thursday night, Buckingham Palace said: “Following medical advice to rest for a few days, the Queen attended hospital on Wednesday afternoon for some preliminary investigations, returning to Windsor Castle at lunchtime today, and remains in good spirits.”
The Queen travelled by car to the King Edward VII’s Hospital in Marylebone, about 19 miles (32km) from Windsor, where she was seen by specialists. Her admittance is understood not to be related to coronavirus.
The overnight stay was said to be for practical reasons and the Queen was undertaking light duties back at Windsor on Thursday afternoon.
It is the first time the Queen has stayed in hospital since 2013, when she suffered symptoms of gastroenteritis.
The King Edward VII’s is a private hospital used by senior royals – including the Queen’s husband, the late Duke of Edinburgh, who received treatment there earlier this year.
It has been a busy period of official engagements for the Queen.
An official record of the Queen’s diary showed at least 16 formal events during October, and there had been the plans for her to embark on the two-day trip to Northern Ireland this week.
She was pictured hosting a Global Investment Summit at Windsor Castle on Tuesday evening alongside Mr Johnson.
However, on Wednesday a Buckingham Palace spokesman said the monarch had “reluctantly accepted medical advice to rest for the next few days”.
