Queen Fabiola of Belgium, 81, is ‘just tired’, a spokesman for the Belgian royal family told national media. They had questioned the palace about the absence of the dowager-queen at recent royal events.
"She is not ill, just tired", spokesman Pierre-Emmanuel De Bauw was quoted as saying. "There is nothing wrong. She walks, moves about, but she is tired and needs rest. That is why she is not travelling or going out", he explained.
Queen Fabiola, widow of the late King Baudouin, has not appeared in public since July 31, the anniversary of the death of her husband. According to the Palade she will not appear in public in the foreseeable future. © GPD; Photo by © Dutch Photo Press, Patrick van Katwijk
