The Queen of England is currently shielding from the threat of coronavirus by staying in the smaller residences of Balmoral and Windsor Castle, rather than Buckingham Palace.
Traditionally, she stays in Scotland until October and then returns to Buckingham Palace for the winter. But this year, she will spend the colder months at Windsor Castle and it's not known when, or even, if she will return to the palace.
