THE Queen has vowed to make a double balcony appearance as she defies her “mobility concerns” to celebrate her 70-year reign.

Her Majesty will delight crowds at Buckingham Palace as she launches her Platinum Jubilee celebrations.

The appearances will take place during the monarch’s official Birthday Parade on Thursday, the start of the four-day bank holiday weekend.

Yesterday a royal source said: “The Queen is determined to take part in the Jubilee celebrations.

“Trooping the Colour was brought forward by one week to be part of the Jubilee this year and the Queen very much wants to be part of it.”

The monarch is also hoping to attend the service of thanksgiving at St Paul’s Cathedral on Friday with her wider family.
